Dallas Bragg says the full moon heightens emotional vulnerability and relapse risk. His safeguards: tell your accountability team, delete apps, stay with friends, journal daily, and build as many guardrails as you can for those high-risk days.
And call me crazy if you want, but it's a full moon tonight, and that means relapse rates are going to be way up. It happens every time. I have collected information on my own. A full moon fucks with your emotions, and the opportunity for you to relapse is going to be in an increase today and the next few days. This is a time to put in your safeguards. Alert your accountability team. Turn your phone off. Remove the apps if you have to. Make plans with friends. Go stay the night with someone. Make sure you're journaling. If you don't want to relapse this week, put in as many guardrails as you can and get through and power through. And guess what? The next time the full moon rolls around, it's going to be a lot easier.
