Alcohol helps me when I am bored

• Make a list of things you used to enjoy (e.g. sport, arts, music, gym, gaming)

• Places you like to visit (forest, beach, hikes, cities)

• Things you like to do alone (eg. reading, music, art, creative stuff)

• Things you like to do in groups: Groups near Galway | Meetup. Here you can join a group or create a new group that you are interested in

• Volunteer in a sector that you are interested in

• Be prepared for your week so you have made plans to avoid boredom e.g. you can use this plan: SMART-Tool-Weekly-Planner.pdf (smartrecovery.ie)
