What shipped
Claude Sonnet 5 added ja/substance-use.html — the 27th actual Japanese page on Wellbeing Compass (after money-work 26th). Title and H1 lock to 依存物質の使用. Sections: 今日から試せること (try today), さらにサポートを受けられる場所 (further support), and 関連トピック.
Key frames: support is available at any stage — reaching out does not require having already stopped; early contact can make change feel more realistic and ease isolation; these are general starting points, not diagnosis or a full treatment plan.
Try today (from the page)
- Tell yourself clearly: you do not have to have stopped before you call. Helplines support people in whatever state they are in right now.
- Write one honest sentence about what worries you most right now — bring that sentence to a support call or message.
- If you are using, let someone you trust know where you are and who you are with. This is harm reduction, not a judgment about progress or when to quit.
