Self-Screening for Substance Use Disorder
What we Treat
Treatment Programs
Many individuals go without treatment for both substance use and mental health disorders.
This may occur due to individuals going undiagnosed or not understanding the scope of their use. Earlier care may be provided with prompt identification of these challenges. Below is the CAGE-AID self-screening tool, which was designed for both adults and adolescents and can serve as a useful self-report measure to help determine whether a problem might exist.
This tool is not used to diagnose diseases, but is designed for you or a loved one struggling with a chemical health to assist in determining the need for a chemical health assessment at Club Recovery.
When thinking about drug use to complete the tool below, include illegal drug use and the use of prescription drugs other than as prescribed.
