Just stick with this and you will be good:

The mnemonic is interpreted as:

Illness - Is the pilot suffering from any illness or symptom of an illness which might affect them in flight,
Medication - Is the pilot currently taking any drugs (prescription or over-the-counter),
Stress - Psychological or emotional factors which might affect the pilot's performance,
Alcohol - Although legal limits vary by jurisdiction (20 mg/mL blood in the UK[1], four times less than for driving), the pilot might want to consider their alcohol consumption within the last 8 or 24 hours,
Fatigue - Has the pilot had sufficient sleep and rest in the recent past, and
Emotion - Is the pilot emotionally upset.
This is from the FAA Risk Management Handbook FAA-H-8083-2
