I made a pretty big app designed by me and a friend and 50/50. The app is called Exhale Phobia it helps users overcome and suppress any kind of phobia they have. Main focuses, Phobia, Anxiety, and Panic attacks. The app is structured with ladder based steps with goals to complete and pass including guided quizzes. The app also includes a wide variety of interactive tools to help calm you during anxiety with a calming rain sound Panic button which you can customize in settings.

The reason I made this app was because I suffer chronic Cardiophobia and Health anxiety, It started after Covid, I would experience terrible and extreme fears that my Heart is failing, going to st*p, or explode. I thought to myself hoe terrible my Cardiophobia was and I thought of everyone else I didn’t an don’t ever want anyone to experience Cardiophobia or Healthy anxiety. People misinterpret Anxiety as just a “feeling of worry” or panic as a intense episode of “Hyperventilating or pacing” ,thats both wrong ! Anxiety isn’t just worrying and panic attacks aren’t just episodes of hyperventilating or pacing. Do your research on the real horror of both of them ❤️

And about my app, it dos help me a lot reading through interactive ladders to calm down and read POSITIVE information, as google will spit out every fearing negative responses which causes your anxiety and panic to sky rocket.
