I've found that if I'm alone when I wake up, and I'm just sitting around on the computer, it tends to take a while before I figure out what mood I'm in. It's actually not until I think about going out or I have to interact with someone else that I understand how I'm actually feeling that day, unless I'm at a severe extreme. Is this the case for the rest of you?
It's just been difficult lately, because I've started trying to mood chart, and I really want to get it rolling, but the moods of note always hit after I'm up and in the world, at which point charting is the last thing I'm thinking about. Then, when I'm level again, all the details get kind of fuzzy; unless there's concrete evidence or someone points it out to me, I'll sometimes totally forget about episodes. It's like mood memory is a totally different kind of recall, and it's way more slippery. :/ Any advice?
