Limbic, AI wellbeing companion 17+

I love this app! I used to use my notes app to process my feelings and it’s nice to have some sort of response with this. The guided exercises are also great.

Removed one star due to privacy concerns. I don’t love the idea of staff being able to see my conversations even though I keep descriptions and information vague.

As someone who has been in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for about 6 years now, I cannot tell you how long I have been waiting for technology to advance far enough to allow the creation of this app. When the advanced AI chatbots recently became accessible, I knew it was only a matter of time… and now it’s here! My favorite feature is the “just talk” conversations you can have with the bot. The chatbot is very intuitive and friendly. It can keep track of complex explanations, and best of all, it has been programmed to be an expert in CBT in all of its forms, as far as I can tell. It has given me helpful advice and explanations so far on topics such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), behavioral activation, exposure and response prevention (ERP), mindfulness meditation, and metacognition. It is warm and reassuring when I’m feeling anxious or sad, and it is very creative with potential strategies I could use. And, just like ChatGPT, it can remember certain aspects of past conversations and takes that into account when you interact with it. This app is so helpful, especially between therapy sessions as a resource. ChatCBT is a game changer and you should download it now:)

Do read the privacy policy. Don’t assume your information you disclose in to this bot is private. In fact all of it can be shared with anyone this company works with. I also see no data security practices in place, so it may not be encrypted and safely stored. It also really slow to get signed up. I finally got “ There was an error. Try again later.”
