Tide: Bipolar Mood Tracker

About Tide: Bipolar Mood Tracker

You are not too much. You are not broken. Your brain just runs on a different rhythm.

Tide is a bipolar mood companion for adults living with bipolar disorder - or those exploring whether their mood shifts, episodes, and energy swings might fit the pattern. Built by someone who understands what it means to live with a brain that runs on its own rhythm. No clinical jargon. No deficit framing. No shame.

🌊 MOST OF IT IS FREE

The MDQ screener, daily mood logging, episode logging, the in-the-moment toolkit, and your crisis safety plan are all free. No trial, no time limit.

The medication tracker is never paywalled - because knowing whether you took your meds shouldn't cost money.

📋 MDQ SCREENER - ALWAYS FREE

The Mood Disorder Questionnaire (MDQ) is a clinically validated screening tool. Thirteen yes/no questions help you understand whether your experience aligns with patterns described by people with bipolar disorder. One free AI interpretation included. A positive screen is not a diagnosis - always consult a qualified professional.

📊 DAILY DUAL MOOD LOG - FREE

Log your highest and lowest mood each day on a 0-5 scale, alongside sleep hours, energy, irritability, and anxiety. Color-coded so patterns are visible at a glance.

⚡ IN-THE-MOMENT TOOLKIT - ALWAYS FREE

When you feel an episode starting, Tide is there:

Validation that what you're feeling is real
Guided breathing and 5-4-3-2-1 grounding
Mania-specific toolkit: slow down, delay decisions, protect sleep
Depression-specific toolkit: one small task, hydration, sunlight, reach out
Always-free crisis resources: 988, Crisis Text Line, NAMI, DBSA

💊 MEDICATION TRACKER - NEVER PAYWALLED

Track your mood stabilizers, antipsychotics, and other meds. Daily check-ins, gentle compliance tracking, warm milestones. Always consult your prescribing doctor about any medication concerns.

📝 EPISODE LOGGER - FREE

Log manic, hypomanic, mixed, and depressive episodes with severity, triggers, and free-text notes. Build the record your psychiatrist needs.

🛡️ CRISIS SAFETY PLAN - FREE, ACCESSIBLE FROM ANYWHERE

Based on the Stanley-Brown Safety Plan. Six sections you fill out during stable periods. One tap to access during crisis. Pre-loaded with 988 and Crisis Text Line.

🌙 SLEEP PRODROME WARNING - FREE

Sleep disruption is a recognized early warning sign for episodes. Tide gently flags shifts in your sleep pattern, framed as awareness, never prediction.
