Qualicum Beach, BC, Canada -- Alcohol is the number one drug problem in North America. Most functioning alcoholics are not concerned enough to take a test to see if they have a problem. Studies show that spouses of alcoholics, particularly women, are more likely to take steps to see if there is a problem and how to solve it. Psychologist Dr. Neill Neill has released on his website an Alcoholism Test for spouses of suspected alcoholics to take.
Dr. Neill, creator of the website "Practical Psychology for Capable People" and author of "Living with a Functioning Alcoholic- A Woman's Survival Guide", explains, "There are many tests on the internet to determine if someone is in need of alcohol treatment. But, you will find that most such tests are aimed at the wrong person." The typical alcoholic is not interested in taking a test that might confirm his own suspicions.
This is why Dr. Neill has designed a test specifically for the spouse of the alcoholic. The Alcoholism Test identifies 11 signs of alcoholism. He has added his own comments after each item for greater clarity. The Alcoholism Test can be found on his web site at www.neillneill.com/alcoholism-test/. He also responds to readers' comments on the Test with helpful ideas and suggestions.
If your partner, another family member or a friend could possibly be a functioning alcoholic, check out the Alcoholism Test.
