It’s important to identify situations that place you at high risk for slipping and or relapse.

Common high-risk situations for many can include:

•    Being emotionally upset
•    Social settings, in which temptation is likely
•    Unexpectedly encountering the to-be-avoided object

It is equally important to have a plan prepared ahead of time to cope with these situations before we encounter them. Although the easiest way to cope is to avoid these high-risk situations, for some scenarios, it is not possible.

For these situations, try writing down the specifics of what happens to you.

Example: When I am stressed, I just want to relieve it by grabbing a cigarette and calming down.

Next try finding alternatives to what you habitually do when in this high-risk situation.

Example: When I am stressed, I will take a long warm bath instead.
Example: When I am stressed, I will take a walk.
Example: When I am stressed, I will have a cup of tea and write in my journal.

Please join us and share what your high-risk situations are and how you cope with them.
