Golden Week ended. You came back. Everyone else seemed fine. You just couldn't get started again. It's not laziness. May depression (gogatsu-byo) is a documented pattern that hits after major transitions β€” the adjustment from holiday mode to real life, the pressure of a new year that's already felt like months. May Reset is a 14-day CBT program built for exactly this. 3-5 minutes per day. Science-backed exercises designed by cognitive behavioral therapy research. Not journaling. Not meditation. Structured exercises that break the thought patterns keeping you stuck. 【What the 14 Days Do】 β€’ Day 1-3: Notice your feelings, a deep-breathing reset, and spotting your thought patterns β€’ Day 4-7: Gratitude, a mindful moment, reframing the story, and connecting with your values β€’ Day 8-11: One small action step, a self-compassion break, future-self visualization, and expressive writing β€’ Day 12-14: Challenge the inner critic, gratitude for growth, and celebrating your reset 【Each Day Includes】 - Daily exercise: One CBT task (3-5 minutes) - Mood check-in: Rate 1-10, one line of notes - Mood graph: 14-day arc makes the recovery visible "I don't believe apps can fix depression." β€” May Reset isn't therapy. It's a structured self-help protocol based on CBT research that shows measurable mood improvement over 14 days for seasonal low mood. It doesn't replace professional help for clinical depression. "I've tried mood apps before and they made me feel worse." β€” Most mood apps ask you to log how bad you feel without giving you anything to do about it. May Reset gives you a task every morning. The difference is the doing. "Will 14 days really change anything?" β€” CBT research shows 14 days of structured exercises is long enough to interrupt a thought pattern. Not a permanent fix β€” a reset. That's what this is. "Do I need to pay?" β€” Days 1-7 of the program are free. Days 8-14 unlock with Premium. Price shown before you subscribe. 【Premium】 - Days 8-14 of the program - Lifetime option available - See current pricing in-app Subscription auto-renews unless canceled 24 hours before renewal.
