Rubbish - do not buy

I suffer with severe generalised anxiety disorder and hav been having some CBT. I thought I would get this app to help me with recording my thoughts by making the process easier but it really didn't help at all and is far too basic in it's makeup - do not waste ur money - I am going to look for a better app right now!

Extremely useful!!

This is the most useful app I have (& I have loads!!)...this is real head-sorting,mind changing stuff,& it has helped me put things into perspective big-time!! I love it,& it has helped me many times in the relatively short time i've had it. It's better & so much cheaper than a therapist. I have recommended it to many people,& will continue to do so. It takes the worry out of worrying. Thanks to whoever made this app!!

Not really CBT

All this does is give you a place to write your thought, decide what kind of thought it is, and write a rebuttle. There is really no guidance. There is no place to connect the thought to your feelings, or the event. You really can do about as much with a "notes" app and a list of the types of thoughts from most any CBT website or book. This was a huge disappointment. I wish I had believed the other reviews and saved the $4.99.

Simple & effective

I don't know about most people but the old way of cbt (ie carting around a notebook) and trying to write down thoughts is cumbersome and hard to maintain. This app is different from the others because it's USer friendly interface and easy to do application of cbt on the fly. It's the only app thus far that got cbt right, but most importantly I've been jotting down my thoughts and using the apps features to help me manage my mind:)

Too pricey

Read the description. It tells you what to do, don't need this app then. OCD sufferers may get sucked in by their desire to get help and pay before thinking it through. I did.

Would be fine if it wasn't so expensive. Worth .99, not 4.99.
