1) Recognize when you are feeling high levels of stress and learn how to de-stress. Among the many ways to decrease stress is through physical exercise, meditation and therapeutic massage. See: helpguide.org/mental/stress_signs.htm 2) Learn how to discern the voice of your addictive illness, what its saying and how it’s planning to sabotage your recovery. Since the addictive voice sounds just like your inner voice, the only way to recognize it is by what it suggests to you. See: archives.drugabuse.gov/TXManuals/CBT/CBT11.html 3) Become aware of negative self-talk, not just thoughts related to addiction, but all automatic thoughts that tend to cause psychic discord. Practice disputing irrational thoughts and replacing them with fact-based rational beliefs. See: smartrecovery.org/resources/library/Tools_and Homework/Other_Homework/three_questions.htm
