- Attitude - a complex mental state involving beliefs, feelings and values and dispositions to act in certain ways
- Antonym: An antonym is a word that has the opposite meaning of another word
Intro: Attitude change is a huge part of recovery related to substance use and mental health issues. No one has a perfect attitude, so everyone can benefit from looking at negative attitude traits and then considering ways to change in a positive manner. This group exercise looks at some common negative attitude traits and the opposite, more positive attitude traits to strive for.
Directions: As a group, go
through this list of some potentially negative attitude traits and try to come
up with the antonym or opposite positive attitude trait. Everyone in the group
should take note of some of the items on the list that they may be working on personally
or need to start working on. Answers are provided in the second column, but
the group leader should not reveal them until the group has come up with their
own answers first
PROCESS:
What are some strengths of this group (from the list)?
What
are some things the group can work on? (Generally speaking - No naming names!)
What
are some of your personal strengths from the list?
What
are some you need to personally work on?
What are some specific things you start doing now or in the near future to improve your attitude?
