State the problem
Before trying to find solutions, it’s helpful to write a statement of the problem.
Click on the names below to see how each of your companions defined their problems:
“I feel tired and weak at work, missing important information because I often go to bed after midnight when I have to get up at 5am.”
“I’m at a higher risk of overdosing (and possibly dying) when I use fentanyl alone in my room.”
“My heroin use has been affecting my work and my relationship with my family and kids because I have been hiding it from them.”
Now you can write a statement of your problem.
