This pamphlet addresses an important and often difficult topic in S.L.A.A.: What is a slip? It begins by providing a clear definition of a slip and its significance in the recovery process. To help members understand the factors that may have led to a slip, the pamphlet includes a "consequences inventory," a tool designed to examine the emotional triggers, behaviors, and circumstances that contributed to the breakdown of sobriety. By answering the inventory's questions, members can gain insight into the underlying causes of the slip and uncover patterns that may have gone unnoticed before.

Reflecting on the guidance and wisdom provided in this pamphlet offers an opportunity for growth and self-awareness. This process encourages members to take responsibility, identify areas for change, and restore clarity in their recovery. By engaging with the material, members can learn from their experiences, strengthen their commitment to sobriety, and move forward with renewed determination on their path to lasting recovery.
