Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that identifying a drinking problem involves recognizing patterns of behavior that negatively impact a person's life over time.
Review each behavior option and consider whether it shows a pattern of harm or loss of control related to alcohol use.
Recognize that drinking only on special occasions or occasionally having a glass of wine with dinner typically does not indicate a problem, as these behaviors are moderate and controlled.
Note that avoiding alcohol at social gatherings is not a sign of a drinking problem; it may reflect personal choice or abstinence.
Focus on the behavior of continuing to drink despite negative consequences in work, relationships, or health, as this persistence despite harm is a key indicator of a drinking problem according to psychological criteria.
