I like to hike. On of the things I like about it is the chance to think, and today I was reflecting on the thoughts driving my mood nowadays. I recognized some should statements and forecasting. I think a lot of this is driven by my natural tendency toward all or nothing thinking. This made me reflect back on my childhood and the thoughts I had back then. I really don't remember the specific thoughts, but I remember the feelings of anxiety, sadness, and that something bad was going to happen. These were probably driven by the same thought patterns I still have. But now I'm better able to manage them and I seem to get better as time goes bye. Mood Sentry is good in that I can capture thoughts at the time of distress, or near to that time. Reviewing multiple entries at a time helps me identify recurring patterns.
