Depression
What’s Up – A Mental Health app
- https://www.thewhatsupapp.co.uk/
- What’s Up? is more than just a diary and habit tracker. Drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance commitment therapy, it helps teach you dozens of coping mechanisms — including grounding exercises and breathing techniques, plus how to recognize distorted thought patterns, such as catastrophizing and black-and-white thinking. The app’s forum also gives you a place to connect when you’re needing some extra support.
