Screening.org
Am I drinking safely? Will alcohol cause me problems later? Is drinking harming
my health now? Among people who drink alcoholic beverages (beer, wine, or liquor),
many consume safe and healthy amounts. For others, unsafe drinking patterns increase
their risk for injury, illness and future alcohol problems. And, for 1 in 13
American adults, alcohol abuse or dependence (alcoholism) causes substantial
harm to their health and disruption in their lives. If you consume alcoholic
beverages, it's important to know whether your drinking patterns are safe, risky
or harmful. This site can help you find out. You can assess your own drinking,
learn about alcohol and health issues, and find local resources for additional
help.

intelligent enough." This site provides you with the latest information
