Welcome to MindFull! This app is designed to help you identify anxiety symptoms while also allowing you to journal details about your day. Understanding the trends of stress and anxiety can help you be more proactive in helping you create a self-care plan that will help you proactively manage daily life. This app was built in conjunction with a licensed therapist to help manage stress, anxiety, and general wellness through tracking physical and emotional symptoms felt throughout the day. Find patterns and gain insights into your own thoughts to improve wellbeing. All data is stored locally on your device and is never used for marketing purposes. See an animated graph of your data based on the week, month, or year. The app will highlight your most severe, frequent, and mild symptoms shown throughout these time periods. You can also choose which symptoms to visualize on the graph through filters. See the number of times a symptom occurs and its average severity for the week, month, or year! Symptoms can be one of six ratings: None, Very Low, Low, Medium, High, and Very High. If you are experiencing a more severe symptom, then give it a higher rating. The taller the bar on the graph, the more severe the symptom. There are ten physical symptoms and ten emotional symptoms. The physical symptoms available are: • Headache • Chest pains • Muscle tension/pain • Nausea • Shortness of breath • Excessive sweating • Trembling/shaking • Stomach ache • Loss of appetite • Disruption of sleep The emotional symptoms in the app are: • Feeling angry • Feeling sad • Difficulty paying attention • Excessive worrying • Feeling overwhelmed • Feeling of hopelessness • Panic • Fear • Jumpiness/edginess • Avoidance All of the symptoms default to a rating of 'None,' so you can skip symptoms that you didn't experience. Finally, you can add some optional notes about anything important that happened. If you think something was contributing to your anxiety, it can be helpful to write it down. Adding notes each day creates a journal of your progress over time, and writing about the good things that happened can help improve mindfulness.
