Omg. As someone who has really struggled with anxiety and depression, this app is a godsend. First, the fact that it is free is amazing. I know these things cost money to develop but being able to access this type of support free of charge is so important. Your ability to improve your mental health shouldn’t be reliant on being able to afford it. Second, I love that so many types of support and techniques are available in the one app. It’s a one stop shop. I’m not someone who can commit to using multiple apps to improve my mental health. I can access everything I need, and it’s really easy to navigate. On that note, one other thing that would be a great addition to this app is a gratitude diary. Noticing three things a day is supposed to be beneficial. And finally, the videos are fantastic, providing useful information without wasting my time. If I want to investigate things more, I can through explore and the linked articles but otherwise I can just focus on what is important to me. I literally got this app today, on a particularly low day, and I am already reaping the benefits. Thank you for supporting people’s mental health and reducing the stigma.

I have spent many years with a psychiatrist and have learnt lots of this stuff before; but there is still some good information that I never thought of, along with great reminders as well. I’ve read one review that sounded way to ‘peace, love and happiness to everyone’...that is one persons feelings but not mine. Happiness and joy left me many years ago; apps like this help to lessen the pain that I feel and the negativity I put out to others.

It can be hard to remain joyful all the time when there is so much suffering in the world. Yet we must always remember that our depression, fear, and anxiety don’t contribute to the wellbeing of those who are suffering. When we look after our mental health we can carry joy, compassion and with a tenter heart with us we can spread hope and happiness wherever we go.
