Austin Drug & Alcohol Abuse Program has a question: Does the CAGE test apply to you?

The CAGE Test for Alcohol Addiction

This simple test is surprisingly accurate. Answer yes or no to each question.
  1. Have you ever felt you should Cut down on your drinking?
  2. Have you ever been Annoyed when people have commented on your drinking?
  3. Have you ever felt Guilty or badly about your drinking?
  4. Have you ever had an Eye opener first thing in the morning to steady your nerves or get rid of a hangover?
Your score:
Score one point for each yes answer.
If you scored 1, there is an 80% chance you're addicted to alcohol.
If you scored 2, there is an 89% chance you're addicted to alcohol.
If you scored 3, there is a 99% chance you're addicted to alcohol.
If you scored 4, there is a 100% chance you're addicted to alcohol.
