Your focus should be on how much effort you\u2019ve put in and how much you\u2019ve been able to do.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But getting help to work through an addiction doesn\u2019t mean everything will be smooth sailing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the first year of sobriety, about one-third of individuals addicted to alcohol have a relapse. The statistics are similar surrounding other drugs and substances.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s important to note that even if you do \u201cfall off the wagon,\u201d relapsing doesn\u2019t mean your recovery efforts weren\u2019t worth it. It doesn\u2019t mean you have failed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But most people experience different feelings and struggles before a relapse actually occurs. If you\u2019re worried about falling back into old habits and you\u2019re struggling to stay sober, let\u2019s go over a few tips you can use to stop that worry and stay on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Be Grateful for Where You Are<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful-16x12.jpg 16w\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3161 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3161\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Grateful-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the easiest and most effective ways to fight the worry of relapse is to be grateful for your recovery. You undoubtedly already are. But, as you get more comfortable with it, that gratitude can be pushed to the back burner. It doesn\u2019t mean it stops, but life happens and you might not focus on it as much as you should.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By bringing gratitude back to the forefront, you\u2019ll think about where you were and where you are now. You\u2019ll feel more thankful for the fact that you were able to overcome something not everyone else can.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gratitude is a great way to push back against the temptation of relapse because it will help you feel content with where you are. Try carrying a small journal or notebook with you and jot down things you\u2019re grateful for as they happen. It can serve as a constant reminder of everything you have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Change Your Relapse Mindset<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset-16x12.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3162 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3162\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Change-your-Relapse-Mindset-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone knows that relapse can happen. It can be hard to completely wipe that from your mindset. But, trying to do so can actually be a big help. Don\u2019t let relapse be an option for you. By thinking to yourself \u201cit could happen,\u201d you might be subconsciously using it as an excuse to slip up.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you relapse, you\u2019ll be able to work through it again and come out on the other side. But don\u2019t let that relapse be the result of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Tell yourself it\u2019s not an option. You might be surprised what that kind of positive self-talk can do.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Be Prepared for Everything<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recovery is difficult, especially in the early stages. Be prepared to accept and handle those challenges as they come. Simply understanding that it will be hard is a good place to start. It can brace you for the things you\u2019ll have to face.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just because things will be difficult doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ll be impossible. A good rule of thumb is to develop a strategy as early as possible. It should include everything from what you want your daily routine to look like to what you might do when you\u2019re faced with a challenge or trigger. Having a plan in place will make you feel more equipped to handle those challenges as they come.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything--300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything--16x12.jpg 16w\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"   data-src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything-.jpg\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3163 lazyload\"  sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything-.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3163\" srcset=\"https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything-.jpg 500w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything--300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/psychotherapyandcounselingservices.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Be-Prepared-for-Everything--16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/noscript><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Finally, it\u2019s important to remember that you\u2019re not alone. You already know how crucial it is to have a support system during recovery. That doesn\u2019t go away. If you\u2019re struggling because you\u2019re worried about relapse, reach out to that support system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Attend a group meeting, talk to a family member, or even a counselor or therapist. Knowing you don\u2019t have to bear the weight of your struggles on your own can make a big difference, and can put you back in control of your recovery journey.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Worried About Relapse?
