Apps For Self Help and/or Anxiety Relief
I’ve suffered from both anxiety and depression for years now. I take medication for it, but I still have breakdowns every now and again. I also have trouble remembering to take care of myself. These have helped me.
While not directly related to mental illness, the app can help you sleep at night with relaxing sounds varying from soft piano to a gentle rain.
There’s a large sound library to choose from, and you can also play multiple at the same time and save them as a set together. The app is totally free but it is optional to pay for extra stuff, though not necessary.

Aloe Bud is a special reminder/checklist/reflection app to help with daily self care. With reminders to take medication, shower, take breaks, breathe, hydrate, and many others, this app has helped me a lot.
The app also has a special “reflection” feature, which asks you to reflect upon various things related to that task.
Its a simple, cute, and very useful app that I have been using a lot to make sure I actually take care of myself. Please give this one a try.
(Please note: Aloe Bud is an iOS only app. My apologies.)

This one has helped me more than any other. It’s gotten me through anxiety attacks, helped me stay positive throughout the day, and generally just promotes positivity and relaxed thinking.
There’s tons of different activities to do, all for free with no ads whatsoever. Things such as (but not limited to):
Journaling (with prompts)
I literally could not suggest this app enough. Its calming music and atmosphere, lack of ads, and dozens of things to do help keep your mind off of things bothering you and really helps with anxiety and panic attacks. Please download this app if you haven’t already.

Anxiety has been something I’ve struggled with for a long time and I really couldn’t recommend these enough. Please download these and at least give them a try. If they don’t work for you, that’s okay! Nothing works for everyone! However, I do suggest finding something that DOES work for you.
Talk to friends! Listen to relaxing music! Draw! Write! Anything will work as long as it helps YOU.
So yes, please consider at least trying out these apps, and if they don’t work, try something else until you can find something right for you.
That’s all I have for today, and please reblog this so others can see. Thank you.
