Fictional example: Noah wants to stop viewing during work hours and review the goal later.
Use an ordinary or fictional example, with a clinician when appropriate. A goal may involve reducing use, changing context, or abstaining if freely chosen.

Use the fictional example below or an ordinary situation of your choosing. Keep identifying details out of shared copies.
2. Try the practice
Define a specific voluntary goal, why it matters, and how to evaluate fit without moral scoring.
3. Compare possibilities
Generate at least two interpretations or options. Mark what you know, what you are guessing, and what remains outside your control.

What would make this goal yours rather than imposed? Choose one small action, a support request, or no action. Review the fit with your clinician when relevant.
