The Four D's relapse prevention strategy stands for Delay, Distract, Deep Breathing and De-Catastrophize. Using you knowledge of other relapse prevention techniques discussed in treatment, describe how to practice these 4 strategies. 

1. Delay – Since cravings rise and fall like waves, if you can delay a relapse decision for 20 minutes you’ll generally find the cravings dissipate on their own.
2. Distract – Craving time passes more quickly when engaged in a distracting activity for a few minutes.
3. Deep breathing (De-Stress) – Deep breathing exercises help you maintain calm and purpose when cravings hit, keeping you from making rash decisions.
4. De-Catastrophize - Challenge your thoughts. In the midst of a craving it's easy to get caught up in panicky 'end of the world' type thinking, like "I can't take it any longer." Or, "I'm never going to succeed so I might as well get high now." Don't let inaccurate catastrophic thoughts guide your actions. Challenge your thoughts and when necessary, reframe them into more accurate notions, like, "This is really uncomfortable, but at least my withdrawal symptoms will go away within a few days."

• Emotional relapse. During this phase, you’re not thinking about using, but your thoughts and behaviors are setting you up for a relapse. You’re isolating yourself and keeping your emotions bottled up. You feel anxious and angry. You’re not eating or sleeping well.
• Mental relapse. In this phase, you’re at war with yourself. Part of you wants to use, and part of you doesn’t. You’re thinking about the people and places associated with using and the good times you had when you were drinking or using drugs. You remember only the good from those times, not the bad. You start bargaining with yourself and planning to use again.
• Physical relapse. This is the phase when you actually start using again. It begins with one lapse — the first drink or pill — and leads back into regular use.
