It says: "Feeling ‘off’? Check if you are: • Hungry • Thirsty • Tired • In pain • Needing the toilet • Too hot or cold • Lonely • Bored Or are you needing to cope with: • Noise • Light • Stress • Strong emotions • New information • Demands/expectations. Go through the list again, to double check!"

It can either be used as a self-prompt, or as something for others to read to help you work out what you need. We have tried to include as many universal options as possible, but the back of this checklist has a blank space, so you can write additional information if you wish.

Ideas for things to write include additional things to check that are personal to you:

Taken meds? Hormonal? Checked vitals? Under or overstimulated? Adjusting to a new routine? Grieving?

Another option is to use the back to list some strategies. For example for things like pain management – what to do if you decide the reason you feel off is because of pain.

(This will result in finished cards that match the size of the physical Stickman Communications keyring cards – approx. 110x80mm.)

Choose the page you want to print, and print it (Most files have 3 pages: the instructions, a plain version, and a striped version - however some designs are only available in plain). Print the relevant page on A4 paper or thin card. - make sure it’s set to ‘print actual size’.

Cut the card out along the solid black line.

Fold along the central dotted line to create a front and back.

Use laminated pouches that are 110 x 80mm, laminate your cards. Or use a larger laminating pouch and then trim the laminate to size leaving a 3-5 mm overhang of laminate all around the edge to seal it.

If you have trimmed the laminate to size, we recommend rounding the corners, as otherwise they can be quite sharp.

Using a hole punch, make a hole in the top left corner to allow for attachment to a keyring/lanyard.

Please note: We have had to stop all international shipping due to changes made to tarrifs and by Royal Mail. We are working to create download versions that will be available worldwide.
