Mood Tracking

Tracking my mood has been a HUGE help to me. I highly recommend to anyone struggling with depression, bipolar, or other mental health issues to start tracking your moods. You have to be honest in this process. Mood tracking has been a great way for me to figure out some of the things that trigger my ups and my downs.

I have tried a few different methods of tracking my moods, by far the most helpful is a mood chart that tracks medications, sleeps, daily events, and moods. Here is a link to that chart:

It has been a great tool to be able to look back on and see where I've been. Now I can look at where I've been and hope that I will continue to improve from there.
