U.S. military personnel and their families now have a free, anonymous Web-based mental health and alcohol self-screening program. The service is available worldwide and provides immediate results, plus referrals to military mental health services. Funded by the U.S. Department of Defense Office of Health Affairs the program is offered through the nonprofit organization Screening for Mental Health. It screens for a number of common problems. It enables users to identify their individual symptoms and to seek help before the situation becomes dire. Program users can do self-screening for depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and alcohol abuse. The program provides immediate results and information about resources provided through the DOD and VA when the self-screening is completed.
This screening is ONLY a screening and is not meant to be a diagnostic tool of any kind. For a thorough, detailed assessment and treatment seek a qualified mental health professional.
