The worksheet below is a rough copy of our Wacky and Wonderful Recovery Pamphlet, “Relapse Prevention Plan.” (This link will take you to a clean version you can purchase right away.) The handout includes 2 pages of check-lists meant to quickly help people in recovery maneuver past triggers and cravings.
Page 1 focuses on identifying warning symptoms and triggers, negative effects of drugs/alcohol, and the good stuff about being clean & sober.
Page 2 is aimed at urge management — i.e. what to do when it hits you.
Ideally the handout would be filled out in advance, but it can serve as an acute rescue packet too.

Don’t forget to take a look at the (hopefully) upcoming Wacky and Wonderful Workbook for Recovery (WW).
Filled with relapse prevention & coping skills, alter egos, art assignments, fiction-writing, puzzles, and much more, WW takes the reader on a 100-day introductory journey through the world of sobriety. This book is about surviving addiction and creating a life worth living. It’s meant to be the first of a series of similar workbooks.
WW will be available in 2021 or 2022, if we sell enough booklets to show there’s a market. Please help! Check out the other Recovery Booklets now available in the store.
