This is my first review and the reason why I did this review is bc I thought the app wouldn’t even help 1 bit bc of the state I am currently in and this was suggested to my by my councillor and I would like to take back what I thought about this app because this app is genuinely fantastic I would 100% recommend it to anyone.

It just didn’t work out always resulted in my sister waking up calling on my mum and making me feel worse about myself and the activity where it says to draw something where you want to harm just made me want to draw it with a blade the made me think about harming my mum and people around me because the stopped me from being able to harm myself might work for others but not for me

i dont normally write reviews for apps. i was told to download this app by a thrive practitioner at school, and ive used it a few times since then and ive found the activities fairly helpful and good at distracting me from the urge. however what i find annoying is that say an activity hasnt helped, you cant log it it just asks you to find another. i normally say the activity has helped even if it has, just so i can log the fact ive had to try multiple activities before the urge has gone away(if that makes sense). also, the fact you’re only allowed to write in the journal space AFTER the urge has gone is very frustrating because i think it would be more beneficial to be able to write in the journal throughout e.g if an activity hasnt worked and you still feel sad you can write in the journal which is why i always say the urge has gone even if it hasnt because thats the only way im able to. i dont know what to write in the journal after the urge has gone, but i have plenty of things i can write in it during the time im feeling upset. i also think you should be able to create an account, so if you are to make a change of device you can easily log in. please take into account the things i have said and change them about your app! i think it would be a lot better with the things ive mentioned. other than that its a brilliant app definitely give it a try if you somebody that self harms

I heard about this app because I was told about it by CAMHS, and while in a crisis I really didn’t want to relapse so I decided to download it. The only thing the app did was giving me things to do in order to distract myself and release what I had pent up. Unfortunately, Self Harm is an addiction both for me and for many other people who do it, so we need more than to take our anger out or calling a friend. But I understand the intention and I think it is an amazing app, but I also think that people who self harm (myself included) need more than just completing tasks to distract ourselves

It kinda helps because we’ll I constantly have suicidal thoughts and this got kind of boring and unhelpful after a while

Honestly ⟟ only got this app on Monday when my parents first found out. And every time ⟟ have the urge to do it ⟟ come to this app and it helped me so much ⟟ use the breathing exercises and the putting hands in cold water one it’s amazing! My fav one. Thank you for creating this app!!

Been advised to download this by a few people now and it’s the most ridiculous idea I’ve ever seen. None of these things would ever feel the same as actually doing it and don’t help whatsoever. Don’t waste your time downloading it

After being told by my therapist that this app would help me I download it to find that the app wont even start, just stuck on a white screen. This isn’t helping me much right now :(

Tbh I love this app I normally get on this app before my bed time that’s when the urge to self harm is stronger when I try to stop myself from doing this it makes me stressed so I go on this app I quite like the art ones bc I’m a creative person myself but other ones like walks I can’t go out on walks bc I’m only 12 and I could be dangerous. But I absolutely love this app to the moon I use it a lot in my time at home, it’s very clever! I also find the breathtaking ones helping me since I have anxiety or even panic attacks also late at night I find breath myself to not go into a panic it’s a big step this app is helping me a lot! 😵‍💫😂👍😌🤙

You have to download this if you are struggling because it has helped me so much with all the different ways to cope and all the different things to do. It really is an incredible app thank-you so much to the people that made this app, you may have saved my life
