DISARM is an imagery technique to deal with urges that can help externalize an urge. This technique is included in SMART Recovery.

Dr. A Thomas Horvath, former president of SMART Recovery, describes the idea as follows:

Use imagery of fighting back (personify the craving). You can imagine that the craving is some type of enemy or misleading person who has now set upon you: an attacking warrior, a slick salesperson, a lying lobbyist, the devil, an animal, a monster, or any other image that has meaning to you. In imagination, fight back using means that are appropriate in your image (if it is a warrior you similar weapons to defeat the warrior, if it a salesperson, be assertive).

Here's how it is described in the SMART Recovery Handbook:

In the same way that your addictive behavior is only a behavior and not “you,” an urge is merely a feeling or an impulse you experience, not the essence of you.

Some people find it helps to cope with their urges if they give them a name, as if the urges were another being or something outside themselves. Give your urge and its voice a name that describes what it feels like when theurge comes on. SMART participants have used names like, “The Inner Brat,” “The Lobbyist,” “The Whiner,” and simply, “The Enemy.”

(If you picture your addiction as something or someone out to get you, how would you see it? (e.g. a wild animal, a devil, a smooth talking liar, etc.)

Naming your urge may help you recognize it sooner. When you hear the first whispers of its voice, address it by name, and firmly refuse it. Tell it to get lost or that it’s no longer welcome; laugh at it. Then visualize it getting smaller and weaker, and disappearing.

Personifying your urge helps in two ways: It serves as a reminder that you are not your behavior; it defines something that, until now, may have felt amorphous and shadowy. It puts you in a power position over the urge and your addictive behavior.

DISARMING the ‘Salesman’

The SMART Recovery Toolbox describes this technique as a way to "Defeat the Addiction Salesman in Your Head".

It is a game you can play with yourself, which might help you to:

• Identify the specific thoughts which, if followed, would lead to using when you have already decided that, in the long term, this choice is not for you, and

• Steadfastly refuse to go along with this thinking no matter how attractive it might seem. Instead of talking yourself into lapsing you can develop powerful countering and coping statements. To do this, it may help to invent and personify an ‘enemy’ who lives in your mind, and whose only purpose is to get you to use. The ‘salesman’ (your alter ego) knows you well, and can change form to take advantage of your weakest moments. Name your salesman (e.g. gangster, enemy, diplomat, weasel, etc.). When urges come, ask yourself, ‘What is she/he telling me now? How is she/he trying to trick me.

When thoughts are identified:

1. Without debate, ATTACK the salesman with powerful counter statements: ‘Nice try, jerk. You can’t fool me!’ You can be as aggressive or profane as your nature allows with the salesman—after all, s/he is trying to screw up your life.
2. Then quickly FOCUS on some other thoughts, images, or activities which are consistent with what you want in the long run and inconsistent with what the salesman is saying. The salesman then loses his power and fades away.

Later on, you can submit the salesman’s tricks to an ABC analysis in order to dispute them. You usually discover irrational themes and patterns in the thoughts and arguments the salesman throws at you. While coping statements alone will often work, it is important not to omit disputing. If your coping statements aren’t working, it is because you don’t believe them as strongly as you believe your salesman’s pitch. Through disputing we can develop powerful coping statements for use in the future.

In a video about DISARM of Checkup & Choices Dr. William Campbell adds that this strategy can be used anytime you start "imagining situations in which you drink or use", "seeing yourself drinking or using", "thinking about what it would feel like to use" or "anything you might say to convince yourself to drink or use or different excuses you might tell yourself why it would be alright to give in to the urge". He adds:

In DISARM, you see the urge as a person or type of person you really don’t like. It may be an annoying, pushy salesman, a spoiled 2-year old having a tantrum or some person from your past that you really didn’t get along with.

You imagine the urge as this person telling you something you really don’t want to do. You treat the urge as you would that person.

Let’s say you go with the annoying, pushy salesman. Would it help to reason or argue with this person? No. Anything you say to a pushy salesman is just going to get you deeper into his pitch. He doesn’t really care about you. He’s trying to sell you something you don’t want, don’t need and can’t afford. You just want to get away, and he just keeps pressuring. What do you do? You say no! Get away from me! I’m sick and tired of you! Then you turn your back on the urge and walk off. Maybe you’d like to imagine slamming the door on his face. Do it! You don’t want this urge to get its foot in the door.

Whatever image you choose, make sure it’s something or someone you really don’t like and practice even when you’re not feeling the urge. Imagine the detailed scenario of confronting and rejecting the person. That way you’ll be good and ready when the urge does strike.

Peter W. Soderman suggests:

You can call it [the addictive voice] anything you like; I only suggest that the name you give it should reflect the way in which it appears to you. Some call it “The Enemy,” or “The Terrorist.” Whatever name you decide upon, it should be personally meaningful. Once you name it, you can literally tell it to go to hell. Remember, it is a part of you that is trying to kill you — nothing less. A voice that tells you that you can get away with using “just once” is not trying to do you any favors, is it? Telling you that you “need it” is just plain wrong; you know better.

The Beast

Rational Recovery's Addictive Voice Recognition Technique, or AVRT, has some similarities to DISARM.

The metaphor in AVRT is that of a beast:

Your AV [Addictive Voice] is the expression of your appetite or your desire for alcohol or drugs. That appetite originates in the biological, animal side of human nature, so we call it the Beast.

It's like there are two of you, at cross purposes, in conflict. In mortal combat.

Your Beast is ruthless. It cares for nothing you love. It wants only one thing. The high.

It cannot tolerate for you to see it. It fears being seen for what it is: a rogue, animal desire. It knows that you can kill it -- once you see it...

The Beast is a master of disguise. It seems to be you! But it is only an appetite for alcohol or drugs. You are not an appetite...

You can say: "I am not my body! I am not an animal being! I am the owner of my body! I am the master of my body! I am a human being!"

Humans dominate beasts within or without...

Ray Gun Imagery

"Imagine a ray gun. Visualize your craving as a robot or a monster. Then atomize it with your weapon. Imagine the robot or monster disintegrating, its pieces spraying all over the surrounding space, until it no longer has any substance. Or imagine the craving as an alien space ship that you’re shooting at in a computer game with the same result." Peele, Stanton. Recover!: Stop Thinking Like an Addict and Reclaim Your Life with The PERFECT Program

Samurai image

"Another related imagery technique is the Samurai image. The client is instructed to visualize the urge as an externalized “enemy” or threat to one’s life. As soon as the Samurai warrior (the client) recognizes the presence of the urge, it is disposed of immediately with an active response (e.g., “beheaded with the sword of awareness”). The client as Samurai is warned that urges may assume a variety of “disguises” to avoid being detected. Although some urges may be easy to detect and deal with since they are externally visible (e.g., an open pack of cigarettes on a table), others may be more subtle and disguise themselves as an internal voice or prompter that seems to come from within (e.g., having a thought such as “I could really use a drink at a time like this”). These “internalized” urges are more difficult to deal with, since the Samurai must first externalize them in order to reveal their true identity. The more “macho” clients may wish to visualize cutting a notch in their belt for each vanquished urge." Allan Marlatt, Relapse Prevention p. 241-2.

Red-X

Some people use the ‘Red X’ technique: "I totally stopped fantasizing about porn about four weeks ago. Whenever a porn flashback enters my mind I visualize a big red X over it and imagine a loud ambulance siren. If the porn image is insistent, I visualize exploding it in my head. The key is to do it immediately. The technique becomes more automatic with time. If you don’t know what else to do, wait and do nothing. Think to yourself, ‘Here are cravings. They came out of nowhere and they have no real power over me. I am not my thoughts; I did not summon them; I do not want them; and I do not have to act on them.’ Typically, the thought will vanish without a trace (for a time). All urges die down, usually within quarter of an hour.". Wilson, Gary. Your Brain on Porn: Internet Pornography and the Emerging Science of Addiction

The PIG

"Monique was particularly taken by the urge-surfing technique of seeing through the “PIG.”

The pig is a greedy, impulsive animal with a ravenous appetite; it stands for the “Problem of Immediate Gratification.” The pig shows up, grunting “I’m starving. I’m craving. Feed me now.” If you respond by giving the pig what it demands, it gets bigger and stronger. It begins to control you. When your pig says, “Give me, give me, give me now,” talk to it. Relax, observe, become mindful. Remain in control. [...] Those of you who are having difficulty with the more abstract image of surfing the urge might prefer visualizing a loud, disgusting PIG demanding to be fed. See it rummaging; hear it grunting; smell its stench. That vivid image can help you experience the urge as something external and alien, something you can observe curiously rather than fight."

John C. Norcross, Changeology

The Parasite

I try to picture the yetzer hora as a small parasite. A little fat creature sitting outside my brain clinging to me as parasites do. (It has to be a small creature not a huge overpowering monster which could feel like you're battling an overwhelming being that you have no strength for.)

Now this tiny little creature is holding the image in question and trying to push it to the forefront of my brain.

There is absolutely no need to accept his suggestion. He wants this one image to block every other thought and emotion from reaching the forefront of my brain and that is something I'm not willing to allow so easily. I value my independence and want to be able to have every thought of mine to be able to be heard.

So I have to picture Him holding this image and trying to push it to the front. Once you really see this with a completely clear mind and you have no desire to fantasize about this image, it's laughable! He's not giving up, He's still standing there, this tiny creature holding a picture much larger than himself, already blown up to magical proportion, red and sweaty, pushing the picture with all his little might while I'm watching and having a laugh!

Hannibal (a personal trainer)

Hashem gave you a partner, your own personal Defensive trainer, a.k.a. the yetzer Hara. I call him Hannibal. You should come up with your own nickname.

Hannibal Barca was a military genius who gained victory after victory against the mighty Roman Empire. He studied his adversaries and knew his enemies before engaging them. He made good use of terrain and laid ambushes. Above everything else, his strategic tactics won battles. This guy is the Einstein of military warfare.

Hannibal is the toughest trainer, custom designed for just you.

Trust me you’ll hate him at first, and give him a terrible nickname. You might!!  Once you start pick up on his style, you’ll feel he’s trying to overcome you, daily, with small action by small action, trying to get you into habits and overtake you, ultimately practically own you. Ever hear of death by a thousand paper cuts? Feels like he’s trying to crush your soul spirit?

In truth he’s working for your owner and as your personal trainer he’s tasked with making you stronger, to compete and to WIN!

Blow it up

By @TheJester

I had urges - terrible urges.  Urges that affected others, as well as myself.  Even after I consciously determined to cease these activities, I found thoughts entering my mind.  My response was to visualize an explosion, blowing the thoughts up.  The reason for this is that the thoughts would invade any other "clean" thought that I could envisage.  They would violently attack the clean space that I tried to form.  I responded with violence (I am emphatically not, nor have I ever been, even mildly violent or physically agressive) - blowing up those unclean images.

This did not always work - the images would reinvade the now vacant space left in my mind.  I then set off "cluster explosions", which would deal with all the little bits and pieces that remained.  This could go on for a while at the beginning (I can still picture myself walking down a street, stopping and closing my eyes for thirty seconds until I had blown up the fragments), but over time the "immediate reinvasion phenomenon" subsided.  This is a stratagem that I continue to use.

I believe that the effectiveness of this is due to avoidance of a common mistake - dwelling on the symptom, and ignoring the problem.  Dwelling on the symptom, in my observation, causes either guilt or fascination - this said "go away, I will not even acknowledge you other than to remove you" - I then moved on with whatever I was doing.  Each time I felt that there were no lingering particles, I would silently thank Hashem for the fortitude he had given me.  I see this as important, since it put a small positive thought in the empty space left.

• by the way, this technique of visualizing things and blowing them up is described in the first chapter of Richard Bandler's book on self-hypnosis.  it's an incredibly powerful technique if done properly.  just careful where you set the explosives. @ontheedgeman
• Summary: This is a personal favorite of mine, It's very simple. When you realize that you're thinking about these things then just blow the thought up. And if it happens again, then just blow it up again. I find it pretty fun, to "get revenge" on the thoughts and think of different ways to blow it up each time. @Inastruggle

'Pop the Bubble' Technique

by Rabbi Shaya Baumann

I’m a Rebbe in a Yeshiva Elementary School. This past week, we met with the parents of a young man with severe anxiety as we prepared to set him up for the coming school year. Meeting by Zoom, we were joined by parents, teachers, administration and the boy's psychologist. The psychologist described a number of the fascinating techniques he has been using with the student to address his anxiety, one of which is called "Pop the Bubble!"

The technique works as follows: He asks the boy to envision his escalating thoughts and fears in a cartoon-like 'thought bubble.' For example, a small sound at night leads to thoughts of a monster under the bed, which then grows to a full monster attack... etc. But he then explains to the boy that it's all just in his mind! Yes, the thoughts in the 'bubble' gets bigger and scarier... But all he needs to do is stick out his finger, and 'pop the bubble'...and poof, it's gone! This cute trick helps because it helps the youngster visualize that all those growing thoughts and fears, as real as they seem, are really only a figment of his imagination.

I thought to myself, "Hey, that's a great technique for Shemiras Einayim as well!" "Pop the Bubble!" Desire is aroused and the 'dimyonos' and the fantasies begin... They get bigger and bigger, seeming to be so real and enticing. But we've learned how it's all just in your mind... It's imagination. The fantasies are always exaggerations of the truth. As chazal teach us (Shabbos 152)... Rav Dessler and others describe how chasing desire is like chasing the elusive mirage in the desert... So here as well, all we need to do is to - "Pop the bubble!"

• See והאר עיננו פ"ב בשם הר"ר אביגדור מילר זצ"ל that the sexual attraction is like a balloon - there's nothing really to it.

Other Metaphor Ideas

• The Spider: Imagine the urge as a spider that just landed on you from the ceiling. Then see yourself shaking it off and flattening it with your shoe. Or how about a flying Cockroach, as Chazal say that the Yetzer Hara is both a מנוול and a זבוב. #Editor
• An ugly animal like a Naked Mole Rat, Blobfish or maybe a squirrel. נפש הבהמית #Editor
• Slimy, or "King Slimy", as it says in Seforim that the Yetzer appears to us as a manipulative friend. #Editor

Key Points

• Identify - Label the urge as something (persona, type of person / creature) that you despise:
  • Annoying (or: Sleezy, Slimy) Salesman
  • Terrorist
  • Gangster
  • A Iranian Diplomat
  • Clown
  • A PIG
• Optional: Attack - Imagine that person trying to convince you to do something that you're not interesting in doing. Treat the urge the same way you would treat that person. Don't try to reason or debate. Just talk with assertive powerful language ("I didn't invite you, get out of here"), and get rid of him (or destroy it if it's an object). E.g. imagine kicking him out and slamming the door shut.
• Optional: Focus on something else. Maybe something that will give you real true satisfaction.
