A sample sustainability plan.

Ongoing professional support (for each of you):
They: continuing EMDR biweekly. Me: monthly check-in with my therapist, weekly support group.
Our regular check-in (when, format):
Sunday mornings over coffee. 20 minutes. 'How are you really?' No screens.
Boundaries we're committed to maintaining:
Thursday evenings are mine. No heavy conversations after 9pm. Either of us can call 'yellow' at any time.
Self-care commitments (both people):
Warning signs that we're slipping back into old patterns:
Me: canceling my own plans. Them: increasing isolation. Both: avoiding the check-in.
What we'll do when we notice those signs:
Name it. 'I think we're slipping.' Revisit this plan. Call our respective therapists.
