About this app

"""Everyone has worries pop into their head from time to time, but sometimes they won't go away and start to impact your everyday life.


ReachOut WorryTime interrupts this repetitive thinking by setting aside your worries until later, so you don't get caught up in them and can get on with your day. This means you can deal with worries once a day, rather than carrying them around with you 24/7.


Key features:


Decide on a time, place and length of time to deal with your worries each day.


When you notice yourself worrying about something, add it to WorryTime and get on with your day.


Use your WorryTime to review the worries you've added and ditch the ones that no longer matter to you.


Produced in consultation with the Centre for Clinical Interventions, ReachOut WorryTime is based on cognitive behavioural techniques that are used by health and wellbeing practitioners to assist people with anxiety and stress.


Manage the symptoms of anxiety, worry and rumination.


Disclaimer: may be used with or without support from a registered health practitioner, but you may wish to consult with your local health or wellbeing practitioner if you are uncertain about using it."""

Ratings and reviews

Compared to the original release, the animations are very jittery, the back button unnecessarily takes you back through every screen that's been opened, and the notification to start the WorryTime comes at seemingly random times during the day (even with Adaptive Battery turned off)

I really like the concept. It has been very helpful. But i too am not locked out. I reinstalled it but the same has happened again. It seems to allow me to go back in any time of the day, which kinda defeats the object. I think I've set it correctly. I would give it 5 stars if not for this.

Thanks for bringing this to Android. I was using on IOS before. I find this app a great help for my mental health and stops me ruminating on the same issues over and over again. It helped to have some background on how worry time works first. This is helpful and we structured. Great app. Thank you for its development.
