Navigating the Self-Assessment Process
Approaching a self-assessment questionnaire with honesty and openness is essential. To accurately gauge the extent of a potential issue, it’s crucial to answer all questions truthfully, no matter how uncomfortable they may seem.
Consider the following factors while responding to the questionnaire:
- Emotional Aspects:
- How do you feel when using substances? (e.g., craving, guilt)
- Do you turn to substances when feeling depressed or angry?
- Frequency and Quantity:
- How often do you use substances? (e.g., daily, weekly, monthly)
- How much do you consume? (e.g., drinks per day or week)
- Consequences:
- Have there been negative consequences due to substance use? (e.g., legal issues, relationship problems)
- Have you faced legal trouble related to drugs or alcohol?
- Attempts to Quit:
- Have you attempted to quit using substances, and were these attempts successful?
These details provide valuable insights for our clinicians, enabling them to design a tailored treatment plan that suits your specific needs.
