Best mental health app for college students I’ve ever used

This generative AI based app is sooo much better than all the other boring, repetitive mental health apps out there. It’s like a safe, psychologically advanced version of ChatGPT from the future.

It uses evidence-based practices like CBT and is developed by clinical psychologists from schools like Stanford, so I trust it.

But it’s not bland or generic. I can tell it what I want or need, and it actually responds in a way that’s personalized to me and my campus.

It’s given me hope, improved my mood, made me feel more in control of my life, and - oddly - more connected, because it’s opened my eyes to (not scary) resources on campus that I’m actually interested in. I know it sounds weird, but I feel like it actually cares about me and my well-being.

It’s also nice because I used up all my counseling sessions this year, but I can still get support with this. And I can talk to it and get help with my problems at 2 am when I can’t sleep, which I obviously couldn’t do with a counselor!

Seriously, I was skeptical, but take it from cynical me. Give it a chance - what do you have to lose by having one short conversation?? - and see how it can help you feel better and get unstuck.
