Anxiety Tracker catches the patterns hiding behind your worry. Log panic attacks in real time, track GAD symptoms across the day, record what triggered the spiral, and finally show your therapist or psychiatrist what is actually happening between sessions. Built for people managing generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic disorder, health anxiety, agoraphobia, specific phobias, and the overlap with OCD, PTSD, and depression that makes anxiety harder to pin down. SYMPTOM TRACKING Your anxiety does not look like anyone else's. Maybe it is the chest tightness before a meeting, the 3am thought spiral that will not stop, or the wave of derealization in a crowded store. Log what you actually feel, not what a textbook says you should. - Anxiety intensity on a 1 to 10 scale - Panic attack logging with onset, peak, and duration - Physical symptoms like racing heart, chest tightness, shortness of breath, dizziness, nausea, trembling - Derealization and depersonalization episodes - Intrusive thoughts and rumination loops - Avoidance behaviors and safety-seeking patterns - Social anxiety intensity by situation - Custom symptoms you define TRIGGERS AND PATTERNS That thing your therapist keeps asking you to notice between sessions, this is where you track it. - Social situations, crowds, and performance pressure - Work deadlines and confrontation - Health worries and body scanning spirals - Caffeine, alcohol, and sleep deprivation - News, social media, and doom scrolling - Hormonal cycle correlations - Custom triggers you discover over time MEDICATION MANAGEMENT Whether you are dialing in an SSRI, tapering a benzo, or figuring out if that supplement is actually doing anything. - SSRIs like Lexapro, Zoloft, Paxil and SNRIs like Effexor, Cymbalta - Buspirone, hydroxyzine, gabapentin - Benzodiazepines like Xanax, Klonopin, Ativan with PRN tracking - Beta blockers like propranolol for performance anxiety - Supplements like magnesium, L-theanine, ashwagandha - Effectiveness ratings, side effects, and refill reminders MOOD AND MENTAL HEALTH Anxiety never travels alone. Track the full picture so your clinician sees what you see. - Daily mood and emotional baseline - Depression and irritability patterns - Emotional exhaustion and burnout - CBT thought records and coping prompts INSIGHTS THAT ACTUALLY HELP Weeks of scattered notes become clear patterns. See which medication window works best, which trigger stacks make Thursdays worse than Mondays, and whether that new supplement earned its price. - Panic attack frequency and severity trends - Trigger correlations with statistical weight - Medication response curves over time - PDF and CSV exports for therapists and psychiatrists BUILT FOR ANXIOUS MOMENTS - 30-second quick entries when you cannot focus - Calm, low-stimulation interface - Gentle reminders that do not add pressure - Health Connect sync, biometric lock, offline mode HEALTH PATHWAYS - CBT thought challenging prompts - Box breathing and grounding exercises - Progressive muscle relaxation - Mindfulness for anxious minds - Plain-language education on anxiety disorders Anxiety is not weakness and it is not just stress. Anxiety Tracker treats it like the neurological pattern it is, helping you separate real danger from false alarms and giving your clinician the data to adjust treatment instead of guessing.
