Early Warning Signs (Stop taking my meds at night for fear of sleep) Action Plan (Sleep promotes good health, look at sleep booklet and practice good sleep hygiene)

Early Warning Signs (Room feels like a Safe Haven) Action Plan (I am avoiding problems when I do this so I need to leave my room at least 3-4 times a day)
Page 5- Triggers
Triggers (Anxious on the bus) Action Plan (Every night re-charge my I-Pod, Imagine people are in their own wee bubble, remember my breathing techniques)
Triggers (Anxious in crowds) Action plan (Use breathing techniques, go into town 1st thing in the morning or late at night)
Triggers (Anxious when shopping with Mum and Sister) Action Plan (Deciding how much shopping needs done before we leave, if it gets too much for me then I go to a cafe and meet them there)
Triggers (family) Action Plan (Educate them and myself on Bipolar)
Triggers (Meeting people, ex-colleagues and friends) Action Plan (Listen to my I-Pod, Change subject, get away ASAP)
Page 6 is my Crisis Plan. Every 2 months I think it is we re-look at my WRAP and see if we need to change anything or add anything. Sometimes my Support Workers tell me I need to add this or that into it if I have had a set back or something. I find it really useful.

Thank you...ur reply is great....thorough. I really like WRAP. It was a big part of me reaching a decent stability level. Learning my triggers and early warning signs really helped me get to know the new me.
