Maybe: If you think you are drinking too much and answer 'yes' to any 2 of these questions, you maybe considered to have a alcohol problem. 1.Have you ever felt you needed to cut down on your drinking? 2.Have people annoyed you by criticizing your drinking? 3.Have you ever felt guilty about drinking? 4.Have you ever felt you needed a drink first thing in the morning to steady your nerve.
