TriggerLink Behavior Tracker
Ever wonder what triggers your urges to drink, smoke, overeat, doomscroll, or gamble? TriggerLink connects triggers to behaviors so you can break the cycle. When an urge hits, log what led to it: stress, boredom, or social situations, then discover your patterns and gain the insights you need to resist urges and make lasting changes.
UNDERSTAND YOUR TRIGGERS. CHANGE YOUR BEHAVIORS.
TriggerLink helps you break the cycle by connecting your behaviors to their triggers. TriggerLink reveals the cause-and-effect patterns behind your behaviors. Track what triggers your urges—stress, boredom, arguments—and see exactly how they connect to your actions. Understanding the “why” is the first step to lasting change.
HOW IT WORKS: SIMPLE CAUSE & EFFECT TRACKING
When an urge hits, log it in seconds:
- Effect (Behavior): What happened? (Drank alcohol, Overate, Smoked, Doomscrolled)
- Cause (Triggers): What led to it? (Stress, Argument, Boredom, Loneliness)
- Context: Add optional notes for deeper understanding
Then watch the patterns emerge.
SEE THE CONNECTIONS
- “Stress → Drinking: 8 times this month”
- “Argument → Overeating: 5 times this week”
- “Boredom → Doomscrolling: most common at 9pm”
These insights reveal your patterns, identify warning signs, and show exactly what drives your behaviors.
