Keeping track of your moods by recording them in a mood diary can help you to find out how severe your symptoms are and recognise when they are getting out of control. This may help you to prevent episodes of mania or depression and ask for support when you need it. Learning how to deal with stress can help to prevent episodes. Maintaining a good work-life balance and doing things that you enjoy can help you to relax and feel well. Regular exercise and a healthy diet are also helpful.
