Hello all. I'm Jane, I've had panic issues since 1982. For me, just carrying some pills in my pocket helps a great deal. I don't have to take them often, it's that they are there that calms me. I have had it in my mind to try to create something like this for others. My idea is a phone app where you would know for 100 percent that if you are mid attack, you can chat in real time with someone who "gets it!" Not a therapist, nothing wrong with them, I've had tens of them, but someone who can say, "I understand and it sucks big time." Not someone who will say, "That sounds scary."

My thought is that if there is enough interest I will build a mobile app that has a community feature but most importantly that promise of a person to talk to about the attack and who will talk you down.

Please let me know if this is something people would find helpful and if needed to get it up and running would you be willing to pay 1, 5, 10 dollars a month for this certainty?

I hope not to charge at all, but I'm not sure of the costs.

Thank you so much for your time.

Jane

What a great idea I suppose you have to charge for it ? It's not like they can use advertising for revenue I would like to create an app but would want it to be free is that possible ?

Well, that's what I'm looking at. Perhaps there could be advertising on other portions of the app. The chat would not have ads. I would want to be very strict about what ads there could be. No super stupid solutions that we've all sunk money into that don't work. I think that for me, maybe $2 a month would seem fair and affordable. That's $24.00 a month if my math is right!

Per year yes

Have you made an app before ?

[jaybee22 in reply to lillyofthevalley37]

Yes, thanks for the correction. 24 a year! Have contributed to app creation before yes!

How did you do it I saw a bit of a youtube tutorial but does a company do it for you ?

[jaybee22 in reply to lillyofthevalley37]

No, I would build it with either a prebuilt community app maker or a web page.
