Johnny0, Have you taken a look at the symptom tracker in your Session Diary? It permits you to keep track of anxiety levels, depressive feelings and panic attacks. At the very bottom of the recording sheet, there is a space for daily observations. You may also want to try pairing journaling with another task such as putting on your pj's at night or brushing your teeth in the morning. Danielle, Bilingual Health Educator

I am struggling to keep the discipline of a journal. Right now I need a concrete structure to follow. I had one job coach that gave me a list of questions to answer each day and that really helped but although I know I'd like to keep an emotions log, I haven't found a structure/format that I can stick to in practice. Do you have a journalling format that is not too onerous yet provides guidance?

Thanks Danielle, I wasn't sure if I had to be technical with this journal or it was suppose to be more "carefree". I guess I look too hard into something, I guess I kind of knew the answer, but wanted to make sure...sorry, thanks for your explanation. Have a good day.

Hi Maggie, Your journal is suppose to provide a place to vent & celebrate. If you need to vent about anxiety, then do so. If you need to celebrate your promotion then do so. Some individuals have divided their journals into four sections: * Positive Life Events * Negative Life Events * Anxiety - Positive * Anxiety - Negative This helps you see the progress you are making in a more linear fashion. You can also flip to the positive sides of your journal when you're having a bad day. This can also help with thought challenging. Danielle, Bilingual Health Educator

I've been asked if I've done any journalling, "it helps". But what my question is, is do you write everything down, like a diary or just what your fears are, what creates anxiety, etc., so you can learn to sort out those things? Does that make sense?

I find most forms of journaling helpful. I have kept a journal for a while now. I find writting things down helps me feel better. -Diva

Members, Did you know: Journaling your daily anxiety, triggers and mood helps to reveal problem areas (such as stresses and emotions that may lead to a panic attack) and is the first step towards improving behavior? Danielle, Bilingual Health Educator
