Part of the Relapse Prevention Workbook for Chemically Dependent Criminal Offenders

Section V: What Is My Personal Plan To Recover?

In this section, you will pull together all that you have learned to form relapse prevention strategies. You will also map out a daily plan and inventory for recovery day by day. You have almost completed the workbook. When you do you will be ready to move forward in your ongoing recovery.

Exercise No. 25: Relapse Prevention Strategy No.

Purpose. This exercise will help you to put to use all that you have learned.

Instructions. Make four copies of this exercise. Fill out one for each of the worksheets that you completed in Exercise No. 24. Read the exercises and answer the questions on this page and on the top of the next page (up through "When I have these mistaken beliefs, I need to . . ."). Then write the information on a card. Also finish the rest of the questions in this exercise.

Read the card every morning before you start your day. Carry the card with you every day so that you can use it to remember how to deal with high-risk situations. Review the information on the card every night. Talk to someone in AA or NA about anything on the card that happened to you that day and how it worked out for you. Make any changes you have to in order to make things work out better.
