Use this templates to track your mood swings and help you identify root cause or triggers. Bipolar people have difficulty staying on focus so we also provide a daily planner and a spreadsheet to help you establish and track goals and objectives. www.thebipolarspectrum.com

1. How to use this workbook?
Bipolar people are easily distracted and jump from thing to thing if you are not motivated or focused.
This workbook is intended to help you stay on top of what you want to do and how you feel day to day.
Mood Diary:
The mood diary will help you track and evaluate your day to day mood swings.
With more understanding comes acceptance and avoidance of triggers to help your mood stabilize
Triggers & Feelings:
Indentify common feelings (like anger, happiness, joy, frustration etc) and list those in this section then daily mark the feelings that were most prevelent.
Daily Planner:
I find that staying organized helps me get more done since it helps me focus. Bipolars are easily distracted although we are driven we can sometimes tend
to be all over the place. I find that planning my day helps me stay on course and helps me accoplish more.
Objectives or Goals
One of the challenges for bipolar people is that we tend to be very impatient and often set grandiose or unrealistic goals for ourselves. Because we are
impulsive often time we find ourselves losing track of our objectives and later feel frustration when things take to long or don't go the way we imageined.
The purpose of the planner for Goals and Objectives is simialr as the daily planner. If you can visualize what you are trying to do, you can then identify tasks
or specific things that must be completed in order to help you achieve your objective.
