Mood Tracker tool

Hope this is ok to post this:

Just wanted to post this link...it is a great tool to track your moods, meds and sleep patterns. Easy to use and you can print out a graph to give your tdoc or pdoc.

wow, this is awesome, and just what I need -- thanks!

Looks great, but I'm to paranoid!

I'll have to stick with paper.

Just a few things...

1. We always encourage members to post such resources to the forums that they run across. But we also *greatly* encourage members to (a) submit resources to Resource Directory (click on "Resources" in the top menu bar, navigate to the appropriate category, like Bipolar, then click "Add new site"); (b) use our Resource Directory to find resources of interest to them.

Why? Because we actually review all those resources in the directory and can make sure they're legit.

2. I'm just a little wary of any website that doesn't have any information about the people running it. Especially a site collecting "medical information" on you, and especially a site without any privacy policy! Yikes. They could turn around and sell your data to anyone. I don't know who runs that site, so I would be careful about using it until they're a little more transparent.

3. While our tools aren't as pretty (yet!), we also allow you to track your mood via our online quizzes (click on Quizzes in the top menu). When you take a quiz on depression or mania or bipolar disorder, you can save your quiz results on the results screen. If you go into your profile here, you can then view saved results over time (with a graph too!). We'll be working on improving the display of this data sometime this year.

Best,
DocJohn

Yup, I've saved my quiz results from the day I got here -- it is indeed very handy, I have to say. I was just looking at my stats this morning, in fact, and if I ever get to see the freakin' pdoc again, that's going to be very useful!

Thank's a lot for posting that, great tool, very helpful for me.

Thank you Doc John,
I never really thought about the privacy issues with that site.
I am not posting anything that interesting to worry about.
But you make an excellant point.
I am so glad you mentioned the quiz here...did not know anything about that...
off I go to check it out!

p.s.
I just took the quiz and it doesn't track meds or sleep etc....wonder if your new quiz might include these items in the future?

thanks again!

This is awesome. This is exactly what I need to find out my course of action. Thanks!!!
