How ocd.app helps you reduce anxiety

The app is based on the core principles of CBT. While not being a “therapy” or “treatment” in itself, It directly targets the person’s thought patterns.

Here’s what you’ll discover inside:

  • The 14 day formula we use to break negative thinking and reduce anxiety and distress
  • The 2 “Magic actions” you can use in every situation
  • The most important (but most commonly misused) element in building resilience
  • Begin a healthy habit, and stick with it!

The app features:

  • Explore maladaptive thoughts common among people suffering from anxiety
  • Learn alternative, supporting and helpful thoughts as a replacement for your maladaptive thinking
  • Daily exercises that evolve and personalize based on your specific goals and anxiety levels
  • Play mini games that assist in creating and maintaining healthy thinking habits
  • Take self assessment quizzes to personalize the app based on your condition
  • Mood and supportive thinking tracker to help you track your progress
  • Exploration of additional mental health topics, such as anxiety, depression, body image, perfectionism and more.

Research has shown that using the app for at least 14 days can build supportive thinking, reduce maladaptive beliefs and increase resilience.

Similarly to CBT, these effects are proven to be lasting. In one study, using the app for 14 days has built resilience that lasted for at least 30 days, even without using the app after the initial 14 days.
