Not necessarily. There are natural reasons to avoid "drinking oneself to death", such as survival instinct.
Survival instinct goes away after about six or eight drinks.

However, the bible doesn't give a believer reason to survive. In fact, the bible gives you good reasons to hurry the end of your life so that you can reach a better one. You're not still prolonging your life for a religious reason.
The Blood of the Lamb is "prolonging" my life, not religion.

[h=3]Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.
[/h]Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
(1 Corinthians 3:16-17, and 6:19-20)

Sure the Bible might not state that you need to have a survivor's will to survive. XD
but the fact is, our body is God's now (if you are a Christian) and we are supposed to take care of it.

HAHAHAHA. I don't believe that is a reason to do stupid things or do things that might damage our bodies.

Drinking is not a sin, per-say, but neither is smoking.
however, both of those are things that pollute and damage our bodies.

Just a friendly reminder! <33333
