Useless
How am I meant to get over my fear of speaking to humans if I’m not speaking to humans?
Really horrible experience to use
It’s really painful experience to be asked difficult questions by a machine and then for the machine to say the equivalent of ‘hey ho, never mind … moving on’. It’s just pre-inputted responses regardless of your answer.
Very helpful
Is it possible you can add different colour backgrounds? I have Irlen Syndrome with dyslexia. The. Limbic app has been really helpful.
Don’t waste your time with this if it’s an NHS suggestion!
DO NOT USE THIS APP! AI trash that doesn’t provide any actual support to anything you say but keeps rephrasing answers to any problem. Also forces to accept that this app isn’t liable for anything it says or suggests. This isn’t a mental health support app. DO NOT USE THIS APP!!
Unfortunately, useless
Prompted to download by the nhs, it does not work at all. All it says is that there is an error. Quite disheartening and possibly making it worse if this is all we can access while on the waitlist for therapy.
Non user friendly
Tried this app for the first time today. How could it help? Told bot I’d like to sleep past 04:00. Basically told me to set a goal to sleep past 04:00, as if I hadn’t tried that!!!!
Stopped working after ‘enable notifications’ Absolutely awful app. Never again.

Talk to the robot and let it sell your data
This felt fairly isolating to use. While it provides very similar questions and responses to a human therapist, I needed a human to talk to. This is exacerbating the problem of not having enough trained therapists.
2 nails in the coffin:
- the waiver telling you to ignore any personal/ medical advice the app gives (clearly they don’t trust the AI enough to not go rogue)
- the amount of targeted adverts I received straightaway on Facebook that seemed to use the exact words I had shared within the App. It really couldn’t get much worse than feeling like a tool for harvesting your data.

Terrible
Badly thought out use of AI to try and assist with complex problems. It is not well enough equipped to deal with the issues it's trying to help with. Circular conversations, over reactive responses when you give answers outside of the bots abilities and just an overall feeling of knowingly talking to a chat bot.

An absolute waste of time
Soul destroying pat responses
Dreadful and isolating
Dreadful. Makes you feel like you’re speaking to a robot. AI is a huge part of the problem of why humans live in isolation and depression and this terrible soul destroying app which has somehow been commissioned by the nhs literally does the opposite of what it sets out to do. Absolutely does not replace real meaningful human contact. Leads to more frustration, depression and anxiety.

DeepSeek is way better
Really poor quality use of AI here. Has a really limited repertoire of responses. I put in how I was feeling and my day and got questioned whether I was suicidal.. then basically ignored what I’d just said and invited me to try some techniques on the app. Oh and it told me that just telling someone about my day was good! Waste of time. Get proper empathetic responses from DeepSeek. And some really helpful analysis and advice. Yes I take it with a pinch of salt but it’s actually useful…

Unhelpful
I’m struggling to concentrate due to mental health problems. Sending me around in circles with no further information really doesn’t help and increases my anxiety
Not what I needed
I’m trying to self refer for my current issues. I want to talk to someone about it. The NHS putting me onto an AI just makes me feel isolated and that what I’m going through isn’t worth someone talking to me about it. It sent me into a panic spiral yesterday.
Verification doesn’t work
Tried to download and use, but verification never came through. Uninstalled and reinstalled and didn’t work.
Good tips
This is the best app, plenty of tips which have helped my anxiety
Doesn’t work & no one to contact. What happened to people?
Absolutely useless & will not function. Not good when already stressed out. A pointless App.
Inhumane
Absolutely shocking that the NHS are recommending this as therapy. Totally non-human approach. Kept asking me about what i do to relieve stress and then telling me i was at risk and to call 111 in response- precisely the issue i am looking to solve. Complete waste of time and so dehumanising.
Terrible
AI chat bot, complete waste of time
Never sends code
Unable to get in cause it never sends a code. My therapist told me about this app and how it can be beneficial in the off times but can’t access it.
Great app when had access to
Used a beta version for a minute and it was extremely helpful. I could have conversation about my feelings and emoting and it would help me unpack them
