Description

FreeCBT is an open source thought diary for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the "gold standard" of psychotherapy and is widely considered to be one of the most effective, evidence backed treatments for depression, anxiety, and panic. If you go into just about any therapist or psychiatrist, CBT will likely be one of the first treatments they try.

FreeCBT is a companion and self-help app for one of the most common formats of CBT. You may have heard it called "the three column technique" or "catch it, check it, change it." Your brain is really good at making you feel exactly what you're thinking. Often, we find ourselves thinking "automatic negative thoughts" that lead us to fume on something that may not be true. That can cause us to feel depressed or anxious.

CBT helps you record "automatic thoughts," challenge them with cognitive distortions and then train your brain with an alternative thought. If you do it enough, you can change your thoughts, your moods and your behavior.

FreeCBT, a fork of Quirk, is open source under the GPL. You can find the code on Github at: https://github.com/erosson/freecbt

Perfect.

I’ve been using this for about six months and it has made such a difference! Beautifully simple and very intuitive. I recommend this to anyone that is interested.

God send for someone who does not think before they act

This app has helped me so much to start to correct my cognitive distortions it has given me an idea of what to expect when I start CBT. Not only does it list all the cognitive distortions in detail so that you can educate yourself on them it also allows you to break down your thoughts and challenge them . I love this app so much thank you for making it :)

Jo

I have found this completely ‘FREE’ app really helpful with managing my anxiety. It has enabled me to think through a situation logically and it calms my mind and usual flight response to situations.

Very Good

Simple , easy to use with notifications . Helps to manage mood and thoughts . It works !

FREE CBT

I appreciate this app has been made, without adverts and completely free… To the creators, I thank you for understanding what people who take the strength to reach out for help actually need! So so refreshing! Been using for just over 24hrs and it’s helping me determine what is and what isn’t important.

Great app with one major issue

When you swipe from the distortion page to the next one, I usually don’t swipe from the very edge and that causes the app to select or deselect a distortion as I swipe to the next page. It seems like a major oversight in terms of UX. To reproduce, put your finger in the middle and swipe left or right from the distortions page. It’ll select/deselect one of them which is really annoying.

Thanks FreeCBT!

I’ve been using this app for 24hrs, it’s helping me to identify my unhelpful automatic thoughts, identify which cognitive distortions are associated with this automatic thought, it’s helping me to put together a challenge to this automatic thought and cognitive distortions and asking me to write an alternative thought that is more helpful to me and my outlook. This is really helping me to navigate my life in a healthier way psychologically, THANKS TO THE TEAM WHO MAKE THIS RESOURCE FREE AND OPEN SOURCE :) YOU ARE AMAZING!

Smart and simple

This is an easy to use app that I feel will only get better with time, it doesn’t send annoying prompts and is clear. I’d like more explanations around automatic thoughts and maybe better examples or a help button. Overall the best app!

Cbt.

Amazing app it’s helped me a lot with my thoughts

Add in a feature please!

Hi, thanks so much for this app - a great simple way to track unhelpful thinking styles. It would be great if you could add in the distortion ‘jumping to conclusions’ as this is a common one for me that doesn’t feature already, meaning the app isn’t as helpful as it could be.
