A free app can help you notice and practise. It cannot assess or treat you. Eleven free apps sorted by evidence, plus the free help that isn’t an app.

Six categories of mental health app, what each one is actually for, and what each cannot do. Thirty honest picks with real prices and real limits.

No quiz and no list of signs here. A better question, what the research says about how long people wait, and the difference between two kinds of talking.

One is a relationship with another mind, the other is a record with nobody in it. What the alliance research says, and where journaling’s own numbers stop.

The loop is not in the medium. Rumination splits into brooding and reflective pondering, and one item on the adaptive half is writing it down and analysing it.

Sixty questions sorted by disclosure level, with one rule: answer everything you ask before asking again. The order is what moves a relationship, not the list.

Sorted by which of Talkspace’s four functions you need replaced, with every price read off the company’s own page on 18 September 2026 and dated.

Sadness is a feeling. Grief is a relationship that continues without one party. What the research actually found, and why there is no stage to reach.

A diary is a dated record of a life, kept by the person living it. Where the word comes from, what it is not, and why the daily part puts people off.
