Am I an Addict?
This may not be an easy thing to do. All through our using, we told ourselves, “I can handle it.” Even
if this was true in the beginning, it is not so as it progressed. Perhaps you admit you have a problem
with drugs, but you don’t consider yourself an addict. All of us have preconceived ideas about what
an addict is. There is nothing shameful about being an addict once you begin to take positive action.

questions were written by recovering addicts in. If you have doubts about whether or not you’re an
addict, take a few moments to read the questions below and answer them as honestly as you can.
