UNDERSTAND THE IDEA
Stability is built with feasible supports.
Routines for health, nourishment, sleep, appointments, and connection are affected by resources and capacity. Planning a smaller version and a restart cue can make a routine more adaptable. Stability is not measured by perfect completion.
Facilitation lens: Ask what barrier needs a service, accommodation, or shared task. Do not use the activity to ration basic care or alter prescribed treatment.

Fictional example
A member wants predictable appointment time.
Open with choice — 3 minutes
Explain the purpose, privacy limits, and the option to observe, use fiction, adapt, or pass. Check access needs and group readiness; do not promise absolute confidentiality.
Meet the fictional case — 4 minutes
A member wants predictable appointment time. Ask what is known, what is assumed, and what the person in the case wants.
Practice: Planning workshop — 26 minutes
Draft a practical limit or accommodation request that supports participation without requiring disclosure. In pairs or small groups, create two possible plans for the fictional case. Compare access, effort, likely tradeoffs, and consent. Choose one reversible trial with a backup and a review point; allow an observing role.
Reflect and compare — 4 minutes
What can be asked without sharing the entire recovery story? Ask what fits, what does not, and what external conditions or supports affect the options. No personal disclosure is required.
Close and integrate — 3 minutes
Invite an optional observation, support request, or small next step. Passing is welcome. Agree how to revisit questions and seek appropriate help outside the exercise.
Practice output
A feasible plan with a support, a backup, and a review question.
Scope and adaptation
Use ordinary or fictional examples, not graphic substance-use stories or cue exposure. No competitive abstinence scoring, forced disclosure, or required pathway. These plans do not manage intoxication, overdose, withdrawal, or medication changes; follow individualized care and appropriate medical assessment.
Offer reading aloud, typing, drawing, pointing, or observation. Avoid mandatory movement, eye contact, touch, and body focus.
