Help yourself & Moderation Management. We receive a portion of the proceeds from the Drinker's Check-up web site, and 100% of the proceeds from the sale of BSCPWIN software. |
|
|
These software programs and interactive
web sites have been chosen because there is scientific evidence
of their effectiveness in helping problem drinkers. We'll add new programs and sites as they, and their evidence of effectiveness, become available. |

Have you wondered about whether you should change your drinking? Get anonymous, objective and confidential help at the Drinker's Check-up.
This scientifically based program helps you take a detailed look at your drinking. It then gives you objective feedback about your drinking, comparing your drinking, consequences, risk factors, etc. to others. It finishes up with a section that helps you resolve your ambivalence about whether to change, set goals for changing, a plan for changing, and offers resources for helping you meet your goals. It takes 60-90 minutes (but you can do it in multiple sessions). The Drinker's Check-up will not label you nor tell you what to do. What you decide to do about your drinking, if anything, is entirely up to you. If you do decide to change though, the Check-up can help you decide how to change. It also will recommend resources to help you be successful in changing your drinking. Moderation Management is one such resource. The program begins with a free, scientifically voided screening with feedback based on your score. If you choose to continue past the screening, there is a fee of $25. We do not accept advertising on the site so ask those who benefit from using it to support it. There also is a money back guarantee. Finally a portion of the registration fee is donated to MM.

A controlled clinical trial found this program to be as
effective as face-to-face treatment with a goal of moderation. |

to Go (e-CHUG) for College Students |

The CHUG is designed to motivate students to reduce their consumption using personalized information about their own drinking and risk factors. The feedback, whether used in conjunction with counseling, or as a stand-alone intervention, includes information which have been shown to be particularly motivating to college drinkers:
