My relapse prevention plan
Written when you're steady, this is meant to be read when you're not.
Fill it in honestly, print it, and keep it somewhere you'll actually see it.
My warning signs
Thoughts, feelings, or behaviors that tend to show up before things get harder — not the crisis itself, the lead-up to it.
My high-risk situations
Specific people, places, times, or circumstances.
What actually helps, when a warning sign shows up
Be specific — "call someone" is less useful at 2am than a name and number.
If a lapse happens anyway
Write this now, so it isn't written in the middle of shame later.
