Use tracking to support care
Record sleep, timing and severity without treating a meal or supplement as therapy. Seek support when anxiety is persistent or severe.
Track: intensity + sleep
Sleep changes
Look beyond the last thing you took

Track: timing + wake-ups
Mood changes
Watch the whole day
Mood can overlap with sleep, stress and cycle changes. Food and supplements are not substitutes for support when symptoms persist.
