This is the blog for Mood Apps, a mobile app development company dedicated to developing apps that support mood management, and more specifically for their Android app Mood Sentry. Mood Sentry is designed to support people in therapy for mood disorders such as anxiety and depression. Mood Sentry (www.moodsentry.com) supports a cognitive therapy approach to mood management.

Didn't Review the App Today Until this Evening
I didn't review the app today until this evening. I think the reason is that I've been fairly busy with work activities and updating the app that I just wanted a break from all of it today. I found myself ruminating on work stuff and future app updates throughout the day. I think these ruminations are a type of Mental Filter. Regarding work, they are related to things that are not going well. Regarding the app, they are related to the next set up updates that I hope to have done in a month or two and will require some new programming skills. Looking at my example in the My Experiences for this distortion I tell myself to focus on what's going well. For work, I have multiple things that are going well. For the app, that's not really what I need to do. For the app ruminations I need to focus on my typical learning MO in which I research, try stuff, research some more, try stuff, and repeat until I figure something out. I have an entry related to learning new things that I'll review later this evening.
