An app for compartmentalizing goals and tasks to
Break habits of procrastination and thought disorder/derailment … I checked to see if anyone else was using the name MOUNTAINS2molehills and discovered the molehillMountin app instead. What a find !

I am neurodivergent on multiple levels I think and I find this app to be helpful in its simplicity and the way it prompts you. Although I do like physically writing things out this is always in my pocket and accessible
Amazing! 👏🏻
Thankyou! 🩷
Even the app name is patronising!
I really wanted this to be helpful, and used it diligently for around four weeks, but can’t recommend it. It’s hard to build trust in an app when even the title informs you your concerns are pointless and silly - hard to imagine anyone being told the potential death of their very unwell loved one is a ‘molehill’. Wildly insensitive and invalidating.
If this app doesn’t work for you despite being evidence based, don’t feel bad about it. I trained as a nurse and if you speak to a range of mental healthcare professional, they will concede CBT works for some but not the numbers who are told it will. It’s a great tool, but it doesn’t fix everything. Wholistic therapy using a variety of approaches is often better but CBT is cheap, a course can be completed in a few weeks, can be done via a bot, and outcomes are highly measurable, so organisations using it can show it’s worked for those who try it. This leads to it being pushed heavily as the ‘best’ option, and it being suggested they haven’t tried hard enough - I’ve heard this from some many folks with ASD.

We like the Worry mountain but think needs to be longer and slightly slower when you open it
