DayNew 17+

My wife passed away after a long illness and I’m so fortunate I had access to DayNew leading up to her passing. It’s also been an exceptional tool as I’ve embarked on a healing process since her death. It’s easy to navigate and enables the user to get organized, track moods, find others who are experiencing or have experienced similar loss, and reflect through daily writing prompts. DayNew is an effective and incredibly helpful resource for those who want to pay attention to and invest in their mental health when faced with this kind of crisis.

When I signed up, I benefited immediately from three features: the personalized content provided by DayNew, the daily writing prompts, and Find a Friend. Specifically, I learned about the power of meditation and the importance of self-care. The writing prompts promoted self-reflection as I processed my grief. And I made connections with two fellow grievers shortly after downloading the app. I’m still in touch with both new friends and I see one of them often. That connection alone has made DayNew worth its weight in gold.

Simply said, I’m grateful for DayNew and for its deep impact on my life.

The DayNew platform is a lifesaver for anyone who is going through a life’s toughest time (death of loved one, divorce, illness) or for anyone who wants to support a dear one going through a hardship. It helps you clear your mind by doing the organizing for you (checklists and guidance on what to do are very helpful). Their extensive database of resources is unmatched. The feature that is most valuable to me is finding people who are going through the same thing, which gives the enormous support by relating to someone else and brainstorming together on the action steps. I’m using it to support a friend who is going through a really hard moment in life (illness). Very grateful to the creators of this platform who took their nightmare and channeled their energy into creating this app to help others.

Review

Rating: ★★★★★

DayNew is an exceptional app for anyone serious about tracking their mental health after experiencing a life changing event like loss of a loved one, illness or divorce. The user-friendly interface makes logging moods, and getting organized quick and easy, and the extensive database of resources is unmatched.

One feature I particularly love is the Find a Friend, which matches you up with people going through something similar. In my case, the loss of loved one. I also like the ability to create a checklist to
stay organized. This helps me stay focused and motivated. I also enjoy the therapy based writing prompts which I use daily. I can choose to write in my private journal or post on the public journal if I want feedback from the community.

For just $36 I find their robust set of features and personalized content incredibly helpful.

Overall, DayNew has transformed my approach to healing and has helped me process my grief tremendously. I am so grateful.

Highly recommend it for anyone looking to explore, what they call, post traumatic growth.
