Alcohol does not discriminate against any sect of society, including the rich and famous. The abuse of alcohol is a serious concern, and, despite massive initiatives to educate the citizenry of its ill effects, the abuse of alcohol remains prevalent among young and old alike. Alcohol can not only be detrimental to your mental and physical health, but it can also have unfavorable effects on your bank account. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) has developed some online resources to help you build a greater understanding of your alcohol use and its impact on your general health. While these tests are not intended to provide a diagnosis for a medical problem, they can provide you with a better self-awareness. The tests and calculators below can help you gain an understanding of how alcohol impacts your life. These resources are completely free and anonymous.

• The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test
• Alcohol–The Quick Quiz Questionnaire
• Alcohol–Spending Calculator
• Blood Alcohol Calculator
