Perna- thanks for the link, it was really helpful. My ADHD is actually pretty well controlled with Adderal (I guess I didn't think to mention that), but I know that while it's essential for me to function, it also ramps up my anxiety. Since I'm not on any mood stabilizers right now, I'm hoping the charting will help me identify patterns and triggers so that I have something to show to the psych when I actually get in to see him next month.

SmokeyPoole- what do you use to track your moods? Is it a handwritten journal/chart type thing or something on the computer? I've tried an excel spreadsheet, a couple different websites and a couple different iPad apps, but nothing seems to be comfortable for me just yet.

thanks so much for everyone's advice
