When to Use

  • When you want to look back at changes in feelings across a week.
  • When you are curious about times or events connected with how you feel.
  • When you want to reflect on a difficult day and what helped or might help later.

How to Use

  1. 1
    Mark a weather level for any mornings and evenings you choose.
  2. 2
    Connect the dots you chose, if you wish; the dashed curve is only an example.
  3. 3
    Add a word or two about what was happening around those times.
  4. 4
    Reflect on what helped on a difficult day or what you might try next time.

Feelings can change across the day. This weekly weather chart offers a way to describe selected moments without treating a label as a judgment.

The dashed curve is an example. Choose any morning and evening check-ins, add a few words about the context, and consider what helped on a hard day or what you might try later.

Optional and private. A pattern is not a diagnosis. For lasting or worrying mood changes, seek professional support. For thoughts of self-harm, seek prompt crisis or professional help. In immediate danger or if unable to stay safe, contact local emergency services. You can pause or stop tracking if it feels distressing or burdensome.
