Self-Test for Alcohol Dependency

Are you wondering if you really have a problem with alcohol dependency? Answering the questions below will help guide you to an understanding about whether you have a problem or not.

Be honest with yourself, so you can determine if you need professional help for alcohol dependency.

Please answer every question. If a question is not applicable, select No.

 Yes   No

Do you lose time from work or school due to drinking? Do you drink because you are uncomfortable in social situations? Do you drink alcohol to build up your self confidence? Is drinking affecting your relationships with friends? Do you drink alone? Do you drink to escape from studies or home worries? Do you feel guilty or depressed after drinking alcohol? Does it bother you if someone says that maybe you drink too much? Do you have to take a drink when you go out to socialize? Do you get along better with other people when you drink? Do you get into financial troubles over buying liquor? Do you feel more important when you drink? Have you lost friends since you started drinking alcohol? Do you drink more than most of your friends? Have you started hanging around with a crowd that drinks more than your old friends? Do you drink until you just couldn't drink anymore? Have you ever had a complete loss of memory from drinking? Have you ever been to a hospital or been arrested due to drunken behavior? Do you think you have a problem with alcohol?

If you answered "yes" to 3 or more of these questions you may have a problem with alcohol or drugs.
