Self-Assessment Forms

To help you, we have created the following brief addiction self-assessment questionnaires. Choose the questionnaire or questionnaires that apply to you and your situation the most closely. Write the answers down on separate paper, we urge you to commit pencil to paper. There is something about physically writing emotionally charged feelings down that makes it more real. I also find that many people act more quickly when they have written down and “made a list.”
