Feeling overwhelmed by your health? Bearable is the symptom tracker that helps you work out what makes your symptoms, pain, migraine and mental health better or worse, so you can feel more in control. Join over 2M patients & doctors using Bearable to manage symptoms, pain, migraine, mood, medication and mental health. FIND YOUR TRIGGERS Most people arrive with one question: what is making my symptoms worse? Log how you feel in a few taps a day, and Bearable shows the correlations between your symptoms and your sleep, food, weather, stress, medication and habits, so you know which triggers to avoid. NOT SURE WHERE TO START? No diagnosis or plan needed. Rate how you feel, add a symptom or two, and Bearable suggests what to log next as your symptom diary grows. PAIN, MIGRAINE AND HEADACHE TRACKER Record pain levels, where the pain is and how long it lasts. Log migraine frequency and severity, spot the warning signs before a migraine attack, see which migraine treatments help, and learn which triggers reliably set off your headaches. The pain tracker is used every day by people managing chronic pain, migraine, arthritis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, joint pain and back pain. MENTAL HEALTH AND MOOD TRACKER See whether your mental health is changing over time, not just how today feels. Log mood, energy, stress, sleep and anxiety alongside what is going on in your life, and see how work, exercise, social plans and the weather shape your mental health. The mental health tracker is used by people living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD and OCD, and by anyone wanting a clearer picture of their mental health. CHRONIC ILLNESS, FATIGUE AND FLARE-UPS Log flare-ups, pain, crashes and good days to see what leads to each. Work out which activities drain you or give you energy, and give your doctor a clear record of how your chronic illness has changed. Built with people living with PoTS, EDS, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS and long covid. GUT, HORMONES AND CYCLE Log digestive symptoms, food and bathroom habits to find out which foods are behind your IBS or GERD flare-ups. See how your symptoms, pain, migraine and mood change across each phase of your cycle, useful for PCOS, PMDD, endometriosis and menstrual migraine. MEDICATION AND TREATMENTS Log medication, supplements and treatments, then see whether they are working for your pain, migraine or mental health and whether they cause side effects. The medication tracker also sets reminders so you never miss a dose or a diary entry.
