- Has a relative, friend, doctor or co-worker expressed concern about your drinking?
- Have you ever wanted to cut down your drinking?
- Have you ever felt guilty or embarrassed about things you have done while drinking?
- Have you ever been arrested for driving under the influence, or had other legal problems as the result of alcohol?
- Has drinking affected your ability to fulfill your family or employment responsibilities?
