Hi, I’m Mike. I built Presently because I have lived with Depersonalization and Derealization (DPDR) myself. When I was going through it, I remember how hard it was to find anything that actually helped. Most mental health apps focus on anxiety or meditation, but almost none talk about that strange, disconnected feeling where you don’t feel real. I spent a long time trying different grounding tools, techniques, and coping methods from therapists, evidence-based practices, and DPDR communities. Over time, I started piecing together the things that actually worked for me. That’s how Presently was born. This app combines the things that helped me most in one place. What You’ll Find Breathing tools you can customize to match your comfort Grounding techniques for both depersonalization and derealization A quick “Emergency” section for tough moments Gentle audio guides and ambient sounds to help you reconnect Includes guided affirmations to help calm anxiety and settle overwhelming thoughts Tracking and gentle journaling prompts to help you notice patterns, like daily gratitude and a space to get things off your chest. Relaxing, grounding activities to help keep your mind engaged Core tools and practices are available offline anytime. Presently isn’t a medical app or therapy. It’s something I built to make life a little easier for people like me who feel detached or dissociated at times. If you struggle with DPDR or dissociation, I hope this helps you find a small sense of calm and connection again. This is the first version, and there’s a lot more to come. I want to keep building this with the community’s help. If something in the app helps you, or if you have questions, concerns, or ideas for what you’d like to see next, please reach out. I read every message and really appreciate the feedback. Note Presently is a self-care and grounding app for emotional support. It’s not meant to replace medical or professional treatment.

I am a person suffering from depersonalization and derealization, and this application turned out to be completely useless. 90% of the functionality is closed, and to open it, you have to pay. information and methods to deal with anxiety - literally from the first lines of Google

Developer Response
Thank you for sharing this. I also live with depersonalization and derealization, and Presently was built from research-based tools that have personally helped me manage it. The app focuses on evidence-based anxiety and DPDR approaches commonly used across mental health apps. We do offer a free trial so people can explore all features before deciding whether the paid version is right for them. I’m truly sorry it didn’t meet your expectations, and I sincerely wish you relief and recovery.
