A weekly activity schedule incorporates:
-
Writing down your activities for each hour of the day
-
For each hour, rating your mood
-
Trying the activity schedule for one week
The advantages are that you will understand:
-
Patterns
By keeping a log and noting when the mood change occurs and how, you can begin to notice a pattern.
-
Why
Certain activities can affect mood, so schedules can often tell you the positive or negative impact that activity had. For example, on your busy day when you were working did you feel better or worse?
