Relapse Prevention and COD (continued)<br />

(continued)<br />

�� Clients with COD need effective strategies to cope<br />

with pressures to discontinue their prescribed<br />

psychiatric medication.<br />

�� One such strategy is simply to prepare clients for<br />

external pressure from other people to stop taking<br />

their medications.<br />

�� Rehearsing circumstances in which this type of<br />

pressure is applied, along with anticipating the<br />

possibility, enables clients with COD to react<br />

appropriately.<br />

Adapted from Substance Abuse Treatment for Persons With Co-Occurring Disorders, TIP 42<br />
