QUESTION: why do some of the Addictions have related addictions? Well, we thought it best to make the "red" lights specific to the addiction. For example, you may select just pornography from the list or you may combine it with voyeurism if those combined paint a better picture of what your addiction looks like.
Regardless of which addiction you select, the recoveryBox works the same for all of them..it's built around accountability and replacing those bad habits with new ones (as well as understanding the when/why of what you do!)
Designed for accountability, recoveryBox is an iOS app toolset that facilitates tracking of daily life activities by easily breaking them down into your "lights". Breaking habits requires knowing why we do what we do, when do we do it and coming up with goals to break unhealthy behaviors. recoveryBox has the tools needed to help with addiction recovery. recoveryBox is designed to work with any addiction: drugs, gambling, pornography, alcohol and more!!

Acting Out - Yes the Red Lights
UPDATE: please know that you can create your own red lights to really tailor recoveryBox to your needs. Be supported!!
First, I must say I hope that you never have to record a Red Light because it does mean that you have broken your sobriety. BUT, please don't be overly hard on yourself. If you do indeed need to record one then do so and move on. We all make mistakes but the difference is if we learn from them.

How Red Lights work in recoveryBox.
- Each addiction will have a different Set of Red Lights. They are specific to your addiction. Until this point, all Green Lights and Yellow Lights have been the same for all addictions. recoveryBox wants to make this specific for your addiction.
- Record a reason why you acted out.
- Consider entering any triggers that you can think of that might help understand why you acted out. Even if you just can't make sense of it, enter the triggers anyway.
- Send the text/email to your accountability partner. Please don't skip this just because you have entered a red light. This is the most critical time that you need to honest. It might leave you feeling vulnerable but you are not alone. This is where you are going to get the support you need through a sponsor or accountability partner.
- recoveryBox WILL automatically adjust your sobriety date (if you are using that module) based on the red light that you enter. You don't need to worry about entering it in 2 different places.
Please don't feel ashamed and wallow in a relapse. Know it happens, pick yourself up and learn from the mistake. It's what you do with it that counts.
Below you will see different Red Light scenarios based on 3 different addiction types.
Alcohol Addiction
Pornography Addiction
Eating Disorder Addiction
There are over 50 addictions to choose from in recoveryBox AND you can even choose multiple addictions at the same time if you need to.
