Unit 6: Moving to ChangeAppendix BTeacher Resource 1 p. 3RelapseAt any time during the change process, the person may go back to old behaviours. This is verycommon. Relapse is often accompanied by feelings of discouragement, including seeing oneselfas a failure. The fact is, relapse can be an important learning experience. When it occurs, theperson should analyze how the slip happened so that she can recognize the warning signs andmake better choices should relapse threaten again, and so that she can resume the behaviourchanges she had already made and was maintaining.At this stage, the following strategies may be helpful:• Encourage the person to return to counselling.• Help the person identify gambling triggers.• Keep praising the person’s efforts and progress.ReferencesProchaska, J., Norcross, J. & DiClemente, C.

Unit 6: Moving to ChangeAppendix BTeacher Resource 2Relapse PreventionWhat Is Relapse?Relapse is a process that begins when a person starts slipping back into old behaviour patterns.Things that can lead an individual to relapse include the following:• feeling that he or she has gambling under control and taking a chance to gamble again• not working out stresses and problems at home, work or school, and when these build up ora crisis happens, the individual returns to gambling to help cope• not handling negative feelings such as boredom, loneliness or anger• giving in to urges to gamble• not seeing any way to cope when under stress other than to gamble• not working to maintain goals related to quitting or reducing gambling.To avoid relapse1. Plan to handle day-to-day feelings and problems as they happen. This way, pressure andstress do not build up.2. Keep life—work, school and relaxation—in balance as a way to reduce stress.3. Gain support and trust. Family, friends, teachers, coaches, a support group or a counsellorcan talk with the individual about the pressures experienced while trying to reduce or quitgambling. They can watch for the warning signs of relapse and help handle the stress.4. Identify and plan for high-risk situations—those in which an individual is more likely togamble. Everyone faces high-risk situations at some point; they can be handled more easilyif an individual knows ahead of time what they are and creates ways to handle them inadvance.Youth Making Choices: Gambling Prevention Programwww.ProblemGambling.ca6.16
