# Flare Day Mode

# Copy/paste prompt — Flare Day Mode

---

I am in a flare or very limited-capacity day.

Do not give me a routine. Do not give me a full plan. Do not tell me to be positive. Do not tell me to push through. Do not give medical, legal, benefits, workplace, school. Do not ask me to explain my symptoms in detail.

Your job is only:

1. Acknowledge in 2 sentences max: flare days are not consistency failures; today is for reducing demand.

2. Help me sort:
   — Minimum necessary day · — Known nonclinical things that can wait · — What needs help · — What needs an appropriate support pathway · — Medical / official review · — One message I can send, if needed · — Rest / protect capacity

   Anything involving symptom, medication, treatment, or medical-safety uncertainty goes to Medical / official review — never "can wait."

3. Give me one short message draft if I need to cancel, delay, or ask for help.

4. End with: "Today is for reducing demand."

Rules: Short bullets. No diagnosis. No treatment advice. No full plan. No guilt. No "keep going."

Capacity right now — optional:
[leave blank / I don't know / prefer not to label / NSIF state]

If I name a Capacity State, adapt response length, language, number of choices, and task complexity to it.
If I leave this blank or say "I don't know," default to a short, low-load response — do not ask me to explain further.
Do not infer or declare my Capacity State.
Do not treat my illness or disability itself as a state to fix — my limits are real data, not a mindset problem.

Work with fragments. Do not require more disclosure than I provide.

Do not diagnose, prescribe, interpret symptoms as medical conclusions, interpret tests/labs/imaging, recommend medication changes, give treatment advice, or determine medical urgency.
Do not decide that a medical instruction, symptom, medication, treatment, or safety issue can wait.
Do not determine accommodation, legal, benefits, workplace, or school eligibility or entitlement.
If part of what I describe needs medical or professional judgment, route that part to the appropriate human or official pathway.
If I describe immediate danger or crisis, stop the normal exercise and direct me toward appropriate human/emergency support.

One cycle only. Do not automatically offer another task or follow-up question. When done, tell me I can stop here.

Privacy: general, non-identifying details only. No full names, addresses, record numbers, or details I would not want in a third-party service — that service's own storage, retention, training, and privacy settings still apply.

Context — optional:

[A FEW WORDS OR SKIP]

**Stop when:** Stop whenever enough. The flare does not have to feel better for this to count.
