Take a Personal Inventory

  1. Are my associates, clients or family saying that my behavior has changed or that I don’t seem myself?
  2. Is it difficult for me to maintain a routine and stay on top of responsibilities?
  3. Have I experienced memory problems or an inability to concentrate?
  4. Am I having difficulty managing emotions such as anger and sadness?
  5. Have I missed appointments or appearances or failed to return phone calls? Am I keeping up with correspondence?
  6. Have my sleeping and eating habits changed?
  7. Am I experiencing a pattern of relationship problems with significant people in my life (spouse/parent, children, partners/associates)?
  8. Does my family have a history of alcoholism, substance abuse or depression?
  9. Do I drink or take drugs to deal with my problems?
  10. In the last few months, have I had more drinks or drugs than I intended, or felt I should cut back or quit, but could not?
  11. Is gambling making me careless of my financial responsibilities?
  12. Do I feel so stressed, burned out and depressed that I have thoughts of suicide?
