Hi Amygirl

Someone mentioned screening tests - this is a standard online one.
Michigan Alcohol Screening Test (MAST), Revised

It may help to crystalise the idea you need to do something.
I think the important part, though, is whether you think it's a problem or not, and you obviously do.

There's a lot of support groups and recovery programmes available...some try counselling, some of us just use SR. Here's a link to the main recovery groups

I agree tho - the key is accepting that 'need to do something different this time' and then doing it...not just not drinking, but cementing that change with action.

You'll find a lot of support here

Welcome
