Clear Fear

i found this app while actually looking for ways to deal with overstimulation associated with autism and ADHD. though this is not the direct purpose, i found this app to be extremely accessible and intuitive to use with a lot of grounding tools to help me when i’m feeling overwhelmed. i would love it if the developers of this app considered the idea of an app meant to be used by people who deal with a lot of issues in regards to stimulation. it’s not often that you see such a straightforward approach to mental health, and this sort of treatment should be available to all kinds of people.

My sister recommended me this app months ago and I hadn’t needed to use it until tonight. Well I wasn’t set up for anything so I’m trying to get everything set up while I’m crying and spiraling downward. When I finally got everything entered and could actually use the app, it was incredibly helpful. After doing one activity my crying stopped and I did a couple more just to make sure that I was calm enough to try to sleep. The only complaint I have is for some reason I couldn’t get the one where you stare at a scene to work. I kept pressing the play button, but nothing happened so I did it with the play button in the middle of the screen, I think I didn’t get the full help and experience from the activity but it did still help some. I would love to see this app continue to grow, and this is now my go to with my emotional struggles.

I was having a very high level panic and anxiety attack, and remembered a friend mentioning this app. So I downloaded it to try and help me. At first, it was a little difficult to figure out what I needed to input, but that is probably because I couldn’t focus due to the attack. Once I started the activities, I began to calm down, and my head cleared. After a few steps, I can focus again and think straight. It really helped. And now that I’m not in a bad mental space, I can go in and input the information needed. I would recommend downloading it and setting up etc when you’re in a good mental space, just to make it easier for those difficult times. 👍🏻
