Work and my recovery

Spot the risks at work — after-work drinks, burnout, travel, conflict — and protect your recovery while you build a career.

Why this helps

Work stress, cultures built around drinking, and overworking as a new way to escape are common relapse risks. Planning boundaries and self-care around work keeps the job from crowding out your recovery.

1. Work risks for me

Check any that apply

  • A drinking or using culture (happy hours, client dinners)
  • High stress or long hours
  • Travel and hotels
  • Conflict with a boss or coworker
  • Cash in hand (tips, cash pay)
  • Overworking to avoid feelings
  • Night shifts and poor sleep
  • Boredom

2. My plan for my top two risks

3. Boundaries I'll keep around work (hours, phone, events)

4. How I'll protect time for meetings, therapy and rest

5. Signs I'm overdoing it — and what I'll do

6. What I'm proud of at work
