| alcoholism symptom checklist |
Here is a self-test to help you review the role alcohol plays in your life. These questions incorporate many of the common symptoms of alcoholism. This test is intended to help you determine if you or someone you know needs to find out more about alcoholism; it is not intended to be used to establish the diagnosis of alcoholism.
- Do you ever drink heavily when you are disappointed, under pressure or have had a quarrel with someone?
- Can you handle more alcohol now than when you first started drinking?
- Have you ever been unable to remember part of the previous evening, even though your friends say you didn't pass out?
- When drinking with other people, do you try to have a few extra drinks when others won't know about it?
- Do you sometimes feel uncomfortable when alcohol is not available?
- Are you in more of a hurry to get your first drink of the day than you used to be?
- Do you sometimes feel a little guilty about your drinking?
- Has a family member or close friend ever expressed concern or complained about your drinking?
- Have you been having more memory "blackouts" lately?
- Do you often want to continue drinking after your friends say they've had enough?
- Do you usually have a reason for the occasions when you drink heavily?
- When you're sober, do you sometimes regret things you did or said while drinking?
- Have you tried switching brands or drinks, or following different plans to control your drinking?
