Not Sure if You Need Help?

 

1. Have you ever decided to stop drinking for a week or so, but only lasted for a couple of days?

 

2. Do you wish people would mind their own business about your drinking-- stop telling you what to do?

 

3. Have you ever switched from one kind of drink to another in the hope that this would keep you from getting drunk?

 

4. Have you had to have an eye-opener upon awakening during the past year?

 

5. Do you envy people who can drink without getting into trouble?

 

6. Have you had problems connected with drinking during the past year?

 

7. Has your drinking caused trouble at home?

 

8. Do you ever try to get "extra" drinks at a party because you do not get enough?

 

9. Do you tell yourself you can stop drinking any time you want to, even though you keep getting drunk when you don't mean to?

 

10. Have you missed days of work or school because of drinking?

 

11. Do you have "blackouts"?

 

12. Have you ever felt that your life would be better if you did not drink?

 

(If you answered “yes” to three or more questions, you may be an alcoholic or a drug addict.)

Friend or Family Member?

 

It is important to understand that alcoholism and drug addiction are true diseases. Anyone, from any background, can be an alcoholic or drug addict. Although there is no cure, there is a solution. It is said that alcohol or drug abuse is a family disease because it affects every member of the family.
Take steps to take care of yourself whether or not your family member chooses to get help. 

 

In addition to the support available at Friendly House here are some excellent resources that are organized to help those who struggle with addiction:
