ALCOHOL: HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH?



April is designated "Alcohol Awareness Month." According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), some warning signs of alcohol abuse include:  drinking alone when angry or sad; being late to work due to drinking; forgetting what you did while drinking; or often having a hangover after drinking.

If you suspect that you might have a drinking problem, or you know someone who abuses alcohol, check to see if your employer has an employee assistance program (EAP) or use SAMHSA's treatment facility locator at http://findtreatment.samhsa.gov/ to find a program.
