Do you drink too much?

Cut down on your drinking and improve your life and health. You might have a drinking problem if:

• you drink alone when you feel angry or sad
• your drinking makes you late for work
• your family is worried about your drinking
• you drink after telling yourself you won’t
• you forget what you did while you were drinking
• you get headaches or hangovers after you have been drinking

Talk with your doctor; he or she can tell you if you should cut down or abstain. If you are alcoholic or have other medical problems, you should not just cut down on your drinking--you should stop drinking completely. Your doctor will advise you about what is right for you.
