Tracking progress in mental health recovery is essential because it allows us to gauge how far we’ve come, what we’ve become stronger in, what we’ve learned so far, what we can and should hone in on, and how we can help others with the tools we’ve learned. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services states there are four components to recovery: health, home, purpose, and community.

Introductory paragraph
Tracking progress in mental health recovery is essential because it allows us to gauge how far we’ve come, what we’ve become stronger in, what we’ve learned so far, what we can and should hone in on, and how we can help others with the tools we’ve learned. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services states there are four components to recovery: health, home, purpose, and community. Health involves making informed decisions to promote one’s health and well-being. Home requires one to have a stable and safe place to live. Purpose gives us fulfillment in daily activities, work, school, volunteering, caring for our family, and being creative; it gives us the independence, income, and resources to effectively participate in society. Community allows us to build relationships and support with others to whom we can rely on.

Recovery Capital
Recovery Capital is the breadth and depth of internal and external resources that can be drawn upon to initiate and sustain recovery from alcohol or drug problems. (Granfield and Cloud 2004). Recovery Capital is conceptually linked to natural recovery, solution-focused recovery therapy, strengths-based case management, recovery management, resilience and protective factors, and the ideas of hardiness, wellness, and global health.
Sober Grid
Sober Grid is a free iOS/Android app that connects you with other sober people. You are instantly connected to a global sober community in your neighborhood and around the globe. You can build strong sober support networks and inspire others.
Sobriety Clocks
Your own sobriety clock, which helps you easily track your days in sobriety abd provides:
1. Ability to share your sobriety clock with people who are supporting your recovery, such as friends, family, partners, coaches, or counselors.
2. Ability to message an accountability partner if you are feeling triggered to use.
SMART Recovery Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA)
The SMART Recovery Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) worksheet is a complement to the SMART Recovery groups. Using the CBA tool you can quickly see the consequences of potential actions. The CBA strategy helps many people recover from addiction and addictive behaviors, ranging from substance abuse to sexual addiction. The app makes performing a CBA convenient and easy.
A CBA is an assessment of 4 questions:
1. What are the advantages of using/doing?
2. What are the disadvantages of using/doing?
3. What are the advantages of NOT using/doing?
4. What are the disadvantages of NOT using/doing?
Keeping a notebook and writing down daily activities, thoughts, ideas, etc. Without holding back, writing all thoughts down can serve as evidence to recurring thought/behavioral patterns that one can more clearly identify when reviewing entries dating back weeks, months, even years. If you have a partner, close friend, or therapist that can help you throughout your recovery, speaking with them about your progress may assist you in recognizing how far you’ve come. Oftentimes these people recognize changes before we do.
