Overcoming Errors in Thinking Parts I, II, III Research shows that most people who are released from jails and prisons have the most problems in the first year. Those problems are mainly in three areas:

(1) the pressure of not finding or not keeping a job
(2) personal conflicts with family and others
(3) the temptation, or actual use, of alcohol or other drugs

This series looks at the problems we have created for ourselves throughout our lives, and that we face immediately upon release.

This 39-minute program focuses specifically on early recovery, teaching the viewers to prepare for the challenging high-risk situations they will inevitably encounter in their first weeks and months back in the community. Specifically, it covers these essential teaching points:

* Make a housing plan before leaving prison or rehab

* Arrange to live in a safe and sober housing situation

* Avoid living with any active drug or alcohol abusers

* Get rid of any drug supplies or paraphernalia you still have

* Prepare to handle the inevitable triggers and cravings

* Plan ahead to handle running into "get-high buddies" and dealers

* Put together a support system--and use it
