What's your score?

Did you answer YES four or more times? If so, you are probably in trouble with alcohol or drugs.

Why do we say this?

Because thousands of people have said so for many years. They found out the truth about themselves the hard way.

But again, only you can decide whether you think you have a problem with alcohol or drugs. Try to keep an open mind on the subject. If the answer is YES, we will be glad to show you how we stopped drinking and drugging ourselves. Just call.

THE HELP LINE does not promise to solve your life's problems. But we can show you how we are learning to live without drinking or drugging "one day at a time." We stay away from that "first drink", that "first hit" If there is no first one, there cannot be a tenth one. And when we got rid of alcohol and drugs we found that life became much more manageable.

Much can be said and many links and/or referrals could be given here, however if you are or someone you know is having problems, or if you have question about addictions, the important thing is to call The Help Line. You will make a secure link with another person that cares and understands and has the tools to help you.
