Help Someone Who is Misusing Substances

When a loved one’s drinking or drug use has become a concern, it is easy to feel powerless. The good news is you are not alone. Help is available.

Define the Problem

A drinking or drugging habit becomes a problem when it causes trouble in:

  • Relationships
  • School or work
  • Social activities
  • How a person thinks or feels

Assessment Tool

This tool can help you or someone you care about decide if a drinking/drugging pattern has become a real problem.

What’s your drinking pattern?
