State needs and agree on helpful support · S12.20
Agree on a helpful prompt from a support person
You would like someone to remind you of a practical option during a difficult task.
Everyday practice
Try these steps
- Choose the specific reminder you want and when it would be welcome.
- Ask whether the person is willing and agree that you can decline the prompt.
- Review whether it helped without letting them diagnose your state or enforce a routine.
An example
If I lose track, please ask whether I want the instructions repeated.
Reflect
Did the prompt support your choice rather than take control?
Next time
Change or withdraw the agreement when needed.
