I think I used eMoods a while back, but I couldn't figure out how to "categorize/label/quantify" what was happening each day and if I looked back, unless there were notes with it, I wouldn't be able to tell if it was an "oh shyt, bipolar episode coming in hot, break out the (whatever med they wanted me to take)!" or a "heyyy, maybe you're a bit more intense because someone's knife is ripping the stitches off those unhealed childhood wounds, and you need to not be around people with knives (and put your own down for the love of God!)"

I think it'd be a really good idea for me to go back to journaling every day, and actually include plans vs what I did along with whatever thoughts/feelings I need to get out. I used to be able to look back and just say "oh, I was manic when I wrote this" or depressed or mixed or dissociated or just straight up being at various points of an emotionally dysregulated journey based on how much I wrote, what I wrote, and how I wrote it.
