I've done something similar with the doctor. Using my past habits I scored 27 on that test.

I think if anyone has any doubt over drinking being a problem, they should just stop for a period of time and see how life goes without it. Experience is the best learning tool there is. Don't procrastinate, just take a break and see what changes occur.

Welcome to SR Teagan.

One of my favorite quotes about the "Am I an alcoholic?" question comes from the book Drinking: A Love Story by Caroline Knapp.

When you question your alcoholism, you say to yourself: If I am an alcoholic, I shouldn't drink and if I'm not an alcoholic, I don't need to. That's a nice piece of logic. You say: People who aren't alcoholics do not lie in bed at two-thirty in the morning wondering if they're alcoholics. A good reality check.
