Some older generations think that only those who are still young could experience mood swings, sudden changes, and for some a sudden bout of depression. That those who are not young anymore are not allowed or are not able to feel their own sudden mood changes. Which is not fully the case. Anyone regardless of their age can feel a sudden mood change. The reasons may even differ. It is also encouraged to track your own mood and to find a professional to help assess you for any problems. With that, you will need a tool made specifically for this purpose. A mood tracker.

What Is a Mood Tracker?

A mood tracker is a tool that helps track and keep records of your current and previous moods. The tracker helps by giving you a daily or weekly summary of your mood at a specific time, may it be through regular or irregular intervals. The general purpose of a mood tracker is to help you make an assessment checklist of your feelings. In addition to that, the information also helps by giving you an idea of when you want to be assessed by professionals about your mood swings. This will also of course depend on the situation and the circumstances that may have triggered the mood you are in. The mood tracker can be made in different ways, regardless of how it is made, the purpose is to help you understand why you are feeling the way you are feeling. 

How to Make a Mood Tracker?

Have you thought about making your own mood tracker? Whether you are feeling down or you simply want to know in case you may need it? What your reasons for wanting to make a mood tracker are mainly up to you, but to get an idea of how a mood tracker may generally look, here are some steps. 

1. Choose a Template or a Format

As mentioned above mood trackers may have different ways of it being made. The best thing you can do first is to choose a template or a format for your mood tracker. It can be in journal form, a collage form, or a simple daily calendar form. It can also be made from scratch or something more personal. How you may want your template or format should be true to you. 

2. Record Your Mood

When you start to record your mood, record each and every emotion or feeling you may have. Regardless if they are positive or negative. Write each mood down. Add the events or circumstances that also may relate to how you were or how you are feeling. These kinds of events or circumstances can help you understand why you were feeling that way and if there is any trigger to why your mood was as it was. 

3. Label Your Mood Tracker

Write a label for your mood tracker. It should be in a way that is convenient for you to remember. Labelling helps you track the series of consecutive moods you may have. You can use a day-to-day labelling method, a time labelling method or even simply a customised labelling method. How you may want to label your mood tracker will simply depend on how you want it to look as well. Get creative while doing it. 

4. Give Updates on Your Mood Tracker

Every now and then, when you have filled out your daily or weekly mood track, give yourself a short update. Update on whether or not you have been feeling the same thing before and compare it to your current state. Updating also helps you track your mood in a more precise and easier manner. Of course, you do not need to update your mood every few minutes, but in a practical sense, update when you can in order to compare. 

Many of us suffer from different moods or mood swings, and a lot of us would like to know the root cause of it. Making a mood tracker helps by letting you list down your current mood and to compare it to your previous moods. If you believe that this can lead to something more serious, seek professional help. Mood trackers are made to help you, but they are not made to assess or evaluate you in a professional way.
