Purpose: Map the everyday things that set off a strong reaction, and what helps right after.

Worksheet prompts

  1. Fill in a few from the last week or two.
  2. Which of these tend to catch you off guard?
  3. What is one thing you could have ready for next time?
    Headphones, a way out, a text to a friend.

Knowing the pattern is not the same as fixing it. It is still worth knowing.
