Patterns vs OCD Toolkit

Patterns is a private OCD journal and self-help practice companion. Record intrusive thoughts and compulsions, write journal entries, delay an urge, and practise exposure and response prevention (ERP). Calm Insights can replace calculated scores and streaks with factual activity counts. Personal content stays on your device unless you choose to export an unencrypted JSON backup or PDF. Optional anonymous usage analytics are off by default and never include OCD content, summaries, locale, or language choice. Patterns does not diagnose or treat OCD and is not a replacement for qualified care or emergency support.

OCD Toolkit is a free collection of tools designed to help you manage OCD — built by someone who deals with it too. No subscriptions. No paywalls. Just tools that help. What's inside: Log - Track your compulsions and triggers over time. Logging what's happening is one of the most powerful first steps in understanding your OCD patterns — and gives you something real to discuss with your therapist. Breathe - A guided 4-7-8 breathing exercise to help calm your nervous system when anxiety spikes. Simple, proven, and always available. Resist - A compulsion resistance timer. When the urge to carry out a compulsion hits, Resist helps you sit with that discomfort and watch it pass — one of the core principles of ERP therapy. Remind - A collection of insight cards covering OCD, intrusive thoughts, and recovery. Swipe through them or get one at random when you need a reminder that you're not alone and recovery is possible. Checked? - A verification tool designed to help you break the checking cycle. Get the reassurance that the urge is asking for — once — and then move on. OCD Toolkit isn't a replacement for professional support. If you're struggling, please reach out to a therapist or OCD specialist. This app is a companion for the work you're already doing — not a substitute for it.
