Is My (or My Loved One’s) Drinking a Problem?
Authors: Robert Doyle, M.D., Joseph Nowinski, PhD
Determine if your drinking is a problem, develop strategies for curbing your intake, and measure your progress with this practical guide to taking care of yourself.
Every day, millions of people drink a beer or two while watching a game, shake a cocktail at a party with friends, or enjoy a glass of wine with a good meal. For more than 30 percent of these drinkers, alcohol has begun to have a negative impact on their everyday lives. Yet, only a small number are true alcoholics – people who have completely lost control over their drinking and who need alcohol to function. The great majority are what Dr. Doyle and Dr. Nowinski call “Almost Alcoholics,” a growing number of people whose excessive drinking contributes to a variety of problems in their lives.
In Almost Alcoholic, Dr. Doyle and Dr. Nowinski provide the tools to:
- Identify and assess your patterns of alcohol use;
- Evaluate its impact on your relationships, work, and personal well-being;
- Develop strategies and goals for changing the amount and frequency of alcohol use;
- Measure the results of applying these strategies
- Make informed decisions about your next steps.
