Clarity: CBT Self Help Journal

I really love what I’ve been able to accomplish through this app. I never liked therapy because of some personal experiences in talk, in-person therapy. I also had trouble being honest because I just felt like another client to the doctor. I really like this app because it’s all on me. I decide when I want to open up and I choose when I want to try to tackle some things that I’ve never felt comfortable opening up to a person in front of me. Personally I like the aspect of “talking to a robot” I really appreciate the feeling of no judgement and I do feel like this app is quite similar to most therapy sessions I’ve had before in terms of questioning. I have been able to open up and explore things that I’m not okay with talking about with someone else, just with myself. Nobody is handing me tissues or prying to get me to open up or getting upset with me for showing emotion. It’s just me and my phone and I also find it easier to type some things out instead is saying them. Long story short I really recommend this app if you have found yourself having trouble getting anywhere with talk therapy, especially when it feels self-induced. It will be okay, you just gotta get comfortable with talking with yourself.

I always felt like therapy just didn’t work for me and that I might never get better because nobody could understand how to help me. I didn’t even know how to help me. I’ve tried to use many other apps but they all just felt cheap and commercial. I felt like I was being sold a nice little pamphlet that a school might hand out on five quick exercises to reduce anxiety. But then a couple of weeks ago I stumbled across this app in an attempt to gain some control over my mind. Now for the first time ever I am writing a review because I feel so thankful that the creators of this app actually knew how to help me. As someone with ADHD and anxiety I very much struggle with motivation and consistency in my journey to sanity. But the layout of the app, the gratification I get from the completion of tasks. The way the journals are actually guided all the way through make so much sense to my muddled brain. The way cbt is explained and utilized in the app has been monumental to my progress. And I love the new chatbot feature, I have really bad anxiety about texting real people but since it’s completely judgment free I can actually ask for help and discuss how to work through my problems. I just felt like I needed to say something. I really hope the app will stay as amazing as it is as it expands.

Self-therapy is important too and this app helps to make that statement a reality. It’s a shame more people don’t know about CBT and how many of us are unaware how it can help us out of suffering and raise us from the deep pits of ANTs. So if your one of the people that have gained insight to what it is and how to use it to heal your mind, body, and soul, GET THIS APP. I downloaded this app when I was on a verge of a breakdown. My therapist was not available but her notes were and in them I saw “CBT,” did a little more research and stumbled upon this app and my life has been steadily improving. I’m able to notice what triggers terrible moods and what makes me feel good or bad. I can easily write my negative thoughts down and confront them in this app with easy to understand definitions of the types of negative connotations that have been paralyzing me. After using it awhile I have been able to utilize the practices of the app in real time, and identify exactly what negative cognitive behaviors are trying to take over. My brain, my body, and my soul has improved dramatically because of this app. It’s not a fix it all, let everything be gone type of thing, but it is a VERY VERY POWERFUL TOOL. It’s worth the money as well! I feel fortunate that I get to track my life and see what is causing me misery for such a low cost. This app is amazing and I only gave it four stars, because the app can only get better even though it’s already really great.
