Recognizing Warning Signs
Helps you notice the shifts that tend to arrive before a harder stretch, like broken sleep, pulling away from people, or a mood that will not lift. It is for catching a pattern early, never for putting a label on yourself.

The checklist
- Persistent sadness or mood shifts — Have I felt low for two weeks or more?
- Loss of motivation — Am I struggling with tasks that used to feel easy?
- Changes in appetite or sleep — Am I sleeping too much or too little?
- Increased stress or anxiety — Am I constantly overwhelmed?
- Avoidance behavior — Am I withdrawing from friends, work, or activities?
- Self-critical or negative thoughts — Do I frequently feel hopeless?
- Physical symptoms — Have I noticed headaches, tension, or fatigue linked to stress?

How to use it
Run through it once a day, honestly and without scoring yourself. A checklist is a way of noticing, not a test: an item you cannot tick is information about the day, not a verdict on you. Over a few weeks the pattern of what gets ticked and what does not says more than any single pass.
With a free Theraglee account the checklist remembers each pass, so you can look back. Without one, you can still read it here and keep your own copy.
