Keeping Track of Progress

Posted by MHK on April 3, 2000, at 18:41:38


One of the major problems I've had concerning medication use and depression in general is that I tend to "forget" how bad things were or how much better they can be. I'm an extremely adaptive personality and can get used to anything.

So... by the time things get so bad that I notice, I've usually been going downhill for quite a while.

For instance, right now I'm feeling pretty lousy -- colossally unmotivated, easily moved to tears, etc., and I realized due to an old post (to this very board) that I've been feeling this way on and off for about 6 months.

I've been thinking that perhaps I should start using a weekly questionnaire or something similar in order to keep better track of my moods and experiences. (I've tried keeping a journal in the past, but I lack the discipline to write regularly.)

I've seen some depression questionnaires on the 'net, and I was wondering if anybody out there uses them as tracking aids.

Any thoughts?
