NOTE

Embrace Uncomfortable Situations and Use the Opposite Signal Strategy

Embrace uncomfortable situations that challenge your beliefs and push you out of your comfort zone. Instead of sticking to familiar patterns, be open to doing things that feel wrong but are guided by research and different perspectives. In recovery, practice contrary action by going against your instincts to break cycles that have led you to unfulfilling outcomes. Utilize the Opposite Signal Strategy, where in situations like loneliness, you counteract your impulses by taking actions that are beneficial, even if they feel counterintuitive.
