How to use these resources

Start with the red-flags checklist if symptoms are sudden, severe, physical, or unsafe. Use the symptom map when you are trying to separate anxiety-looking signs from medical, behavioral, and situational patterns. Use the trigger tracker when the pattern is stable enough to observe across days or weeks.
