Test
Yourself
The links below will allow you to test yourself at home, but are not
provided so that you will be able to make a diagnosis of chemical
dependency. That diagnosis should be made by a professional who is
licensed and trained to provide substance dependency assessment, diagnosis
and treatment. If you believe that you have a problem with alcohol or
other drugs, I recommend that you see a professional for a screening even
if these instruments below did not indicate a problem. A Personal Checklist (UPenn) Questionnaire: Alateen - Is It For You? (AlaTeen) |
