Back & Forth - Just Talk

Back and Forth MMH

About this app

Back & Forth — Just Talk is a free mental-health community built for men. Whether you're having a tough day, hitting a low point, or just want to check in with yourself, Back & Forth gives you a safe, private place to talk, reflect, and move forward one day at a time.

DAILY CHECK-IN A quick mood and reflection check-in helps you build a habit of noticing how you're really doing. Track your streak, watch your progress grow, and earn points along the way.

THE BACK & FORTH JOURNEY A gentle, gamified progression system that rewards you for showing up — daily check-ins, journaling, community support, challenges and real-world events. No penalties for missing a day; progress is additive, never reset. Unlock milestones and achievement coins as you go.

PEER COMMUNITY & SPACES Connect with other men in community Spaces, peer circles and channel chats — from general wellbeing to walks, socials and fantasy football. Post, reply, give and get support, and know you're not alone.

TOOLKIT & QUICK TOOLS Practical resources when you need them: grounding techniques, box and visual breathing, sleep aids, body-scan meditation, progressive muscle relaxation, positive affirmations, a journal, to-do list, alcohol tracker, burnout check, and a personal crisis/safety plan.

STILL HERE & UNLOAD "Still Here" shares anonymous stories from men who've reached their lowest point and come through it. "Unload" lets you vent without being heard — get it off your chest safely and see how you feel afterward.

EVENTS & MEETUPS Discover and RSVP to real-world walks, socials and events near you, and earn points for showing up.

RESOURCES & SUPPORT A curated library of articles, videos, podcasts and coping strategies, plus direct links to crisis support agencies.

Back & Forth is a registered charity (No. 1210246) on a mission to make sure no man faces his mental health alone.

In loving memory of Marc Forth, and all the men we have lost.
