How Much Is Too Much?
Is drinking alcohol harming my health now, or will it be harmful to me later in life? Should I stop drinking alcohol? Am I a binge drinker?
This is the intro to AlcoholScreening.org, helping you to answer questions regarding alcohol usage. The website offers a confidential screening tool. In addition, the site offers a wide range of alcohol-related health topics, including alcohol consumption guidelines, tips for teens and what to do if you know someone who has a problem.
