can't go to school, mostly housebound, have trouble tutoring bc too nervous/manic/can't think clearly/ normally enough to teach. i am not hospitalized but as i mentioned in previous post i am too high from mania to take stock of the day's mood at the end of the day. i can't even pause for a bit to ask myself what mood i was in today. i can only answer for how i feel right now right now

i find it very difficult to track my progress. i am better today than a year ago. but otherwise i am in constant moderate to severe pain, some kind of manic all day most days of the week, housebound. it's so difficult to track my progress! weeks to weeks, months to months. does anyone else have this kind of issue/situation about very difficult to track progress?

I do mine in the morning and evening .. My pain is all over the place so it does create a problem really knowing where your mood is versus where your pain is and how it effects your mood.

Chronic pain and Bipolar are such a fabulous combo

I have a really hard time tracking moods. I think I'm gonna buy a journal for it.

About the pain, my back went out and I had surgery....I've never been the same. I'm starting walking but it hurts at about 11 mins or so. I feel ya it sucks having pain and bp.

Does anybody know of a good site or something for tracking moods?

The sanity score thing seems to work well with tracking how much trouble your various issues causing you. Maybe that could help?
