sheerah Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 I haven't been able to open moodtracker for the past 3 or 4 days. Anyone else having trouble? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latin Girl Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 What is Moodtracker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepia Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 LG, MoodTracker.com is a website to track moods. Note that this is a post in the Bipolar forum. I've been having trouble loading the site for the past four days, and haven't been able to bring it up at all for about 56 hours. Grrrrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sepia Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Nope, not just you. I've been keeping a log in Notepad on my computer. I have their basic question template (possibly out of order) and my own questions which always go in the "notes" box. DATE MOOD: / MEDS: SLEEP: PERIOD: ANXIETY: IRRITABILITY: WEATHER: NUTRITION: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: SOCIAL INTERACTION: NOTABLE OTHER: Filled out, it would look like this: SATURDAY JUNE 10 2006 MOOD: 4(am)/4(pm) MEDS: yes PERIOD: no ANXIETY: 1 IRRITABILITY: 1 SLEEP: 8.5 NUTRITION: good PHYSICAL ACTIVITY: virtually nil. 1k walking. SOCIAL INTERACTION: 4 hrs babysitting, 1hr phone Jem, 3hrs phone IJ. WEATHER: warm cloudy, moderate rain NOTABLE OTHER: [i’m not making this public.] Irritability and anxiety are ranked 0-3. Mood is ranked 1-7 (1 for severely depressed, 7 for batshit manic). I'll transfer this to moodtracker whenever the damn site is up. Am I missing anything?

sheerah Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 THEY'RE BACK!! Just logged on and filled in most of the past 5 days. I'm not as organized as you... but I'll do better recording if they ever go down again! Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Moodtracker still isn't working for me. It hasn't worked for me for the past three days, so I've been keeping a log in Notepad, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerah Posted June 12, 2006 Author Share Posted June 12, 2006 ARRGGHH! the site's down again for me as well. Glad I got caught up last night. Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anelize Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 WHAT is up with moodtracker?! I was able to catch up on tracking last night, but now, this morning, the site won't even load. How frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepia Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I sent them an email using their on-site form asking WTF is going on, but I don't necessarily expect a response. I have begun keeping backup records of my information in Notepad (my journals and med lists transfer surprisingly well) and screen captures of my mood charts. I refuse to be left without my records when I finally see a pdoc again later this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonder Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 I was just able to log in again for the first time in four days. Maybe you guys might want to see if you can now, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyra Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 I've been unable to for a week now. Still not working for me, and I unfortunately didn't think to write things down until day before yesterday. I'm a bit dissapointed. You have that Email address still? Maybe if enough of us complain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resonance Posted June 15, 2006 Share Posted June 15, 2006 When I wrote to inquire about what was behind the software a number of months ago, I found out it was just one woman and her husband, who had programmed it for her to track her own mood episodes. It may be they've run into difficulty with bandwidth or with time to devote to fixing things when they break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sepia Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 MoodTracker's tech support sent me an email reply earlier this morning. Basically, their server has gone from providing Very Good Service to Very Unreliable Service this spring, and they plan to switch servers within the next few weeks. If you're worried about your data being lost/inaccessible, there's no harm in keeping running backups of your on-site data. Some sections of the MoodTracker site (like the mood graphs) let you print your data. Others are less printer-friendly. What I do is highlight, copy, and paste the contents of my mood journal to Notepad (no real formatting to speak of, but it gets the text, dates, etc in a readable way). I also make screen captures of my mood graphs and medication log. All this is saved to my laptop, where I can show it to my psychiatrist. Once they've gotten everything settled at the new server, their frequent downtime should be over. Which is good, because lately their server's been up and down more than a yoyo -- strangely appropriate for a bipolar mood site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
