Other places to find help
Most 12-Step groups have a self-test questionnaire that can help you diagnosis yourself. Although personal denial can impact your results, many have found answering these direct questions for themselves quite helpful.
Some examples: Is Alcoholics Anonymous for you? Twelve questions only you can answer. http://www.aa.org/pages/en_US/is-aa-for-you-twelve-questions-only-you-can-answer Are you a compulsive overeater? 15 questions https://oa.org/newcomers/how-do-i-start/are-you-a-compulsive-overeater/ Is Alanon for you? Are you troubled by someone’s drinking? OR Did you grow up with a problem drinker? http://al-anon.org/is-alanon-for-you The 12 questions of Marijuana Anonymous may help you determine whether marijuana is a problem in your life. https://www.marijuana-anonymous.org/how-it-works/the-twelve-questions The 15 Questions of Debtor’s Anonymous http://www.ncdaweb.org/15questions.html 20 questions for Gambler’s Anonymous http://www.gamblersanonymous.org/ga/content/20-questions This is by no means an exhaustive list, but a sampling of what is available. The scores are not as important as what you are feeling as you do these questionnaires. It is common for people to discover that they qualify for more than one program. Begin where it feels right for you. All of these programs are free. Meetings are open to anyone who thinks they might have a problem. You can locate meetings in you area via an internet search and some 12 Step programs also have online and phone meetings available.
