WRAP stands for Wellness Recovery Action Plan, a toolkit to help you get well, stay well, and live the life you want. **The WRAP Model** WRAP helps you manage symptoms by using planned responses. It includes identifying wellness tools, recognizing early warning signs, and developing coping strategies. **Developing Your WRAP** 1. **Identify Wellness Tools**: Activities that support your mental health, like exercise, time with friends, mindfulness, or hobbies. 2. **Recognize Early Warning Signs**: Signs of increased stress or symptoms, such as feeling more anxious or withdrawing from social interactions. 3. **Create an Action Plan**: Steps to take when you notice early warning signs, like adjusting sleep, reaching out to a friend, or practicing relaxation techniques. **Emergency and Crisis Management** **Recognizing a Crisis** - A crisis might involve increased symptoms, feeling overwhelmed, or thoughts of self-harm. Recognize these signs early. - Physical signs like extreme restlessness or severe trouble sleeping can also indicate a crisis. **Immediate Steps to Take** - Have a plan that includes contacting a healthcare provider or reaching out to a trusted friend. - Keep emergency contacts easily accessible, including your healthcare provider and crisis hotlines. Creating this wellness plan empowers you to manage your mental health. Remember, it's flexible and can be adjusted as your needs change.
