Are you an alcoholic?

Wonder if you have a drinking problem? Take this screening test from Johns Hopkins!

"Alcohol and drug use can progress into abuse and even addiction so insidiously that sometimes people do not realize that it has become a problem for them and those around them."

It's sometimes a slow progression. You start out like everyone else, having a few drinks at a cocktail party, having one while you cook dinner. Then it becomes having a few more with dinner. Then it's embarrassing yourself at a cocktail party because you've had one too many. Then it's drinking alone, or in the mornings, and it just gets really bad from there. Alcoholism is an insidious disease, which burrows it's way into your life, slowly but surely.

But there is a way out. You can stop drinking, promise. It might take detox, or a 12 step program like AA, but there is a way. If you think you have a problem, or know you have one, get help. You don't have to live like this anymore!
