Is there a way to automatically get track of installed packages and dependencies?

Is there a way to automatically get track of installed packages and dependencies?

There are packages I installed using 'apt-get install', that installed also all its dependencies. If I want to remove it after some time, I would remove its dependencies as well. Now I do not trust 'apt-get autoremove' or deborphan, since they caused me some problems in the past. So I thought to get manually track of installed packages every time I install something.
Is there not a smarter way to automatically monitor / log installed packages?
