Fictional example: Lee feels pressure from others to make an immediate relationship choice.
Use an ordinary or fictional example, with a clinician when appropriate. Recovery does not require reconciliation, separation, or forgiveness on a deadline.

Use the fictional example below or an ordinary situation of your choosing. Keep identifying details out of shared copies.
2. Try the practice
List decisions that can wait, decisions needing practical attention, and support for making them voluntarily.
3. Compare possibilities
Generate at least two interpretations or options. Mark what you know, what you are guessing, and what remains outside your control.
4. Decide together
Which decision needs more time or independent support? Choose one small action, a support request, or no action. Review the fit with your clinician when relevant.
