Is this a substitute for clinical assessment?

No, and it shouldn't be. It's a self-tracking tool to notice trends. If trends are concerning, take the chart to a clinician — it's a useful conversation starter, not a diagnosis.

How often should I check in?

Weekly is ideal — frequent enough to notice change, infrequent enough to avoid hypervigilance. Sunday evening tends to work well.

What if joy and social battery seem to compete?

Common pattern, especially for introverts. The radar is telling you something true about how you recharge; design your week around it instead of fighting it.

About this template

A mental-health check-in radar gives you a quick, repeatable way to track how you actually are — not as a diagnostic tool, but as a self-awareness instrument. Stress, anxiety, joy, social battery and mindfulness are the dimensions that most reliably move week to week with the things you can change. The chart isn't a verdict; it's a conversation-starter with yourself, your therapist, or your support network.

Attributes included

Stress (low)
Inverted — high score means low stress. Pressure, overload and reactive feelings.
Anxiety (low)
