Fictional example: Jordan has a supportive friend but unreliable transport to appointments.
Use an ordinary or fictional example, with a clinician when appropriate. Recovery draws on personal, social, material, and community resources.
Before looking back
Choose one ordinary attempt or decide to review the fictional example instead. This journal has no scores, required disclosure, or expectation of progress.
Revisit the practice
Map current supports and access gaps, including transport, housing, treatment, and chosen community.
Notice context and impact
Record what actually happened, including an unhelpful or neutral outcome. Note resources, power differences, accessibility, and changed conditions rather than attributing everything to personal effort.
