Delta Recovery Relapse Prevention

Cognitive Impairment

Mental cloudiness threatens Fives’ primary asset and coping mechanism – their intellect. Cognitive difficulties feel like losing their core competency and protection.

Memory Problems

Memory issues undermine Fives’ ability to accumulate and retain knowledge. Memory problems threaten their sense of competence and self-sufficiency.

Emotional Dysregulation

Emotional extremes exhaust Fives’ limited emotional energy and interfere with thinking. Emotional volatility depletes their carefully conserved energy reserves.

Sleep Disturbances

Sleep problems affect mental clarity and energy needed for intellectual functioning.  Poor sleep diminishes their cognitive resources and ability to withdraw productively.

Motor Coordination Issues

Physical coordination problems highlight Fives’ dependence on their body. Coordination issues force awareness of bodily vulnerability they prefer to minimize.

Stress Sensitivity

Stress sensitivity forces increased withdrawal to protect limited energy reserves. Increased stress reactivity requires even more energy conservation and isolation.
