Relapse Prevention Plan worksheet to help individuals identify triggers and develop strategies for maintaining recovery.

- Identify your drug of choice by filling in the blank under "What is your drug of choice?" to establish the specific substance you are working to avoid.
- List at least three personal reasons for wanting to stop using, such as improving health, repairing relationships, or achieving career goals, to build internal motivation and commitment.
- Check off feelings from the provided list (e.g., Anger, Grief, Fear) that trigger cravings, then write a healthy coping strategy for each checked feeling—like calling a sponsor for anger or journaling for grief—to replace impulsive reactions with constructive actions.
- Write down five specific thoughts that may lead to relapse, such as “I can handle just one drink” or “I’ve been good so I deserve it,” to increase awareness and preemptively challenge these rationalizations before they lead to action.
