Lesson Overview
1.6 – Recognizing Warning Signs of Relapse: Relapse rarely happens suddenly; it begins with subtle behavioral or emotional changes. Recognizing these early signs—like isolation, irritability, or loss of structure—can stop regression in its tracks. Tracking moods and routines creates visibility into one’s wellness trends. When small deviations appear, immediate corrective action prevents escalation. This proactive approach builds long-term stability and self-accountability. Recognizing relapse as a process, not a single event, transforms setbacks into teachable moments. Each early catch strengthens awareness and reduces future vulnerability.
