Craving Response Plan

A practical response for the first minutes of a craving.

Triggers and cravings

Set a 10-minute timer before making any choice.

Change rooms, take a walk, drink water, eat a snack, or do a simple task.

Ask: What is the next safe step?

Call or text a trusted person, sponsor, counselor, or house support.

If there is any sign of overdose, call 911 right away. If available, use naloxone and stay with the person until help arrives.
