Screening guide + Alpine preparation checklist • Adults 18+
Learn what the DAST-10 checks and prepare for an honest conversation about drug use.
This is a self-reflection, not a validated screening test. It has no diagnostic score and cannot decide which treatment you need.
DAST-10 asks about problems related to drug use over the past year. It does not screen alcohol use. Its total does not identify the drug used or determine a treatment level. The checklist on this page is separate from the standardized questionnaire.
The official resource opens on another website. Its privacy practices apply there. Our preparation checklist below does not produce the standardized tool’s score.
Select topics to discuss with a care provider. These preparation prompts are not the DAST-10. You can leave items blank or stop at any time. More checked boxes do not equal a diagnosis or a higher level of care.
No name, email, or phone number is needed. This check-in does not send your choices to admissions or save them in browser storage. General website analytics may still operate. Use a private device when possible. Printing may leave a copy on your device or printer. You choose whether to contact Alpine.
Select the items you want help with. Then choose “Show my next steps.” If you prefer, read the guidance below without making any selections.
You can still read each item and the next steps below. Interactive results need JavaScript.

That does not rule out a concern. You may still ask a qualified professional about anything that worries you.
This check-in does not submit your choices to Alpine. It does not alert a clinician. If you want help, contact a provider yourself.
No. A care provider needs to consider your health, safety, daily life, support, and preferences before recommending treatment.
