Spoons - Autism Energy Tracker

Spoons is an energy tracker for autistic adults dealing with burnout, sensory overload, and masking fatigue. Diagnosed, self-identified, or still figuring it out. Log how much energy you have at any moment and see patterns around burnout, masking, shutdowns, and sensory overload. I built Spoons after years of autistic burnout and sensory overload, because the accommodations around me were not enough, and most autism apps on the app store are made specfically for kids, almost NOTHING out there exists for us. Spoons uses a 0-10 slider to track your energy at any moment. Simply slide and release. (Auto saves upon release) There is also a history view from the past 14 days right below the slider to view patterns on: What is draining you: — Sensory overload — Masking — Shutdowns — Autistic Burnout What may help restore you: — Stimming — Time alone — Reducing sensory input Over time, tracking can help you notice subtle drains, recovery patterns, and situations that cost more energy than they first seem to. Once you start seeing what drains your energy and what helps you recover, you can plan ahead, pace yourself, set boundaries, and make changes that reduce unnecessary exhaustion. — Taking time off work on very low-energy days — Removing routines that consistently drain you or create unnecessary friction — Can lead to fewer meltdowns, shutdowns, and burnout cycles, since your nervous system has less to "fight agsinst". Spoons also includes reflection cards that makes discovering patterns and drains involves certain days, weeks, months, or even years much more obvious. Drains like: - Your Mondays tended to be lower recently ->Could correlate specfic days that could involve more masking, and more sensory overload, which is usually subconscious and invisible - Higher-energy days were sometimes followed by lower days soon after. -> Could be a brief recovered period where you have more energy, but after masking or special interest engage, energy is lower for a certain period - Your lowest entries were lower than usual over the past few months.-> Could possibly indicate accumulated sensory overload which could make it hard to recover & deal with more masking or other types of sensory overload that drains you. These are made to be purely observational as well as actionable, not to point out context that it doesn't know. This can be very specific and are highly influential from the patterns on your energy you built over time, which helps can you help you plan ahead and self-accommodate yourself what is likely to have the best impact on your energy over time.
