FREE PRINTABLE FOR FLARE DAYS

A flare does not remove your things. It removes your ability to go and get them.
Everything you need exists somewhere in the house. The problem is that reaching it costs standing up, walking, bending and deciding, on the one day when all four are expensive.
A cart solves that by moving the decisions to a day when you can afford them. Once it is built, a bad day asks nothing of you except reaching out an arm.
What the three pages do
🧺 Page 1 : tier by tier
A checklist of what goes on each level, so you build it once and stop rediscovering what is missing halfway through a flare.
⏱️ Page 2 : the first thirty minutes
A fill-in plan for the opening half hour, written by you in advance, so the hardest part is already decided.
🔄 Page 3 : restock
What ran out, and space to record what actually helped. Over a few flares that column starts telling you something.
The plan matters more than the cart
Most flare advice assumes you can think. In the first half hour you usually cannot, and that is exactly when the decisions get made: whether to push through, what to cancel, whether to lie down.
A plan you wrote on a calm day removes those decisions from the worst possible moment. It is your own instruction, in your own words, and following it costs nothing.
💚 It is not a treatment plan
Nothing here tells you what to take or what to do medically. The pages are about placement and sequence: where your things live, what order you reach for them, and what you noticed afterwards. Anything medical stays between you and whoever prescribes for you.
Questions, answered
Is it really free?
Yes, completely. Enter your email and the PDF arrives in your inbox straight away. No card, no trial, no catch.
Do I need an actual cart?
No. A cart is convenient because it rolls to you, but a basket beside the sofa, a drawer in the bedside table or a box under the bed works on the same principle. What matters is that the things live in one place you can reach without standing up.
Does it tell me what to take during a flare?
No, and that is deliberate. It covers placement, sequence and what to restock. What you take is between you and whoever prescribes for you, and it belongs on your own list rather than in a printable.
What if my flares are all different?
That is common, and the restock page is built for it. Recording what helped after each one, over several flares, is what eventually shows which items earn their place and which never get touched. Our guide to what to do the moment a flare starts covers the sequence in more detail.
What format is it?
One PDF containing both A4 and US Letter versions. Print as many copies as you like for personal use, or fill it in digitally on a tablet or phone with any PDF annotation app.
