Spoons
Your energy, counted kindly.
Spoons are a simple way to count your energy. You start each day with a number of them. Things you do use some up; rest gives some back.
In the morning
Set at your check-in
Your usual number lives in Settings. After a poor night MyAddi suggests a couple fewer, and you can always change it.
Your usual
Pick a number that feels like a normal day. Most people start around 12.
After a poor night
One fewer after a restless night, two after a poor one. Only a suggestion.
Easy to change
Tap “Change” under the dial at any time. It’s your day.
Through the day
What uses them, what gives them back
Every entry says it plainly: “Uses 2 spoons” or “Gives back 1 spoon”. You can set your own cost on anything.
- ActivitiesLight uses 1, medium 2, hard 3
- SymptomsMild uses 1, moderate 2, severe 3
- MoodLow uses 1, rough 2
- StressModerate uses 1, high 2, overwhelming 3
- RestShort gives back 1, medium 2, long 3
Running low
Amber, not alarm.
When a quarter or less is left, the dial turns amber and suggests something gentle: rest before the evening, keep the rest of today light.
Spoons never talk about doses. Your medication plan comes from your care team, and stays separate.
Together
The people who help can see it too
If you allow it, your care circle sees your spoons and gets one calm alert when you’re running low. You can turn this off for anyone.
