Relapse prevention
Red light indicators
Anxiety
If little things are bothering you then you may want to do something about the situation.
Mood swings
Mood swings are an indicator that you may have a desire to use.
Isolation
I am a chronic isolator myself do something go for a walk read call someone and make plans to get out of the house.
Not asking for help
We can beat heroin addiction but we must ask for help and we need to understand that we can not stay clean alone. Pick up the phone and call another recovering addict now.
Missing meetings
This is the best way in the world to relapse. We need to stay plugged in to other recovering addicts by going to meetings.
Poor eating habits
When we get to hungry it throws our system out of whack the other program recommends that we not get to hungry, angry, lonely, or tired.
Poor sleeping habits
When we stay up alight watching movies and are tired all day long we start thinking of things to make us feel better. When we start doing these things we open the door to relapse.
If you do relapse keep coming back I did. I think I could write a book on the number of times I relapsed.
I believe it is necessary to come up with a relapse prevention plan.
The thing is that I kept coming back and am clean today by the grace of God.
