We review the work of the previous weeks in this module and acquire some more maintenance tools. We are always guarding against relapse, so we look at relapse prevention and learn that relapse is a process, not an event. Drinking or using is just the end result of not using the tools we have acquired.Â
We also build a recovery plan that we know if we follow it, and apply all the lessons we have learned and use all the tools we have been given, there is little chance we will relapse.
In Conclusion
We put the tools in your hands - Tools that have worked for countless people, including us. It is up to you to learn how to use them, apply them to your recovery, to your life, and make a contract with yourself to work the plan.Â
Remember: A goal without a plan is just a wish.
