Substance Use Risk Self-Check

A few questions to help you reflect on whether substance use is affecting daily life.

This educational self-check is not medical advice, a diagnosis, or a treatment recommendation and cannot replace professional assessment. If there is trouble breathing, loss of consciousness or inability to wake, seizure, hallucinations, or severe confusion, seek local emergency care immediately.
