Activities for bad day
Hi and felicitation for this tool; it's very helpful especially the science cards. May I suggest an addition to assist in the depression battle? Depression presents himself with some good and bad days and so the strategies to go through those days are different. It would be great to have a "bad day button" that would help you to accept those down moments and propose a more gentle approach. This could offer some reminders that things will get better, suggest tricks to "ride the sad wave" and even notify your allies that your or having a bad day. In a bad day our thoughts are somehow distorted so we need gentle intervention. Regards

I agree. Some days just making it through without hurting myself is an epic win. I simply have days (too many right now) where I'm lucky to wake up or get out of bed. I have a lot of quests, power ups & bad guys I can't address because I don't feel anything. It's difficult to make lists of good things when there is nothing but emptiness consuming me. It's those days where I need a way for my allies to help me or check on me - when I don't have the will or capability to do it myself. I admit I get scared of myself sometimes and my disease prevents me from reaching out for help when I really need it the most - it could help to save a life to have a "bad day" notification incorporated somehow. Thank you for the idea.
