Recommended apps?

Anyone have any good apps they recommend to help with anxiety?

Obviously this one is good :-)

I also like calm which has a good breathing exercise thing on it, and tune in is good for radio stations as it has a number of ambient stations that really help the mind chill out.

Any other suggestions folks?

OK its not an app but it's a computer game! It's called Minecraft. There are studies that show that Minecraft calms the brain in a way. My boyfriend got me hooked on it and it helps!

Ah that's interesting, that's like a building game isn't it? Actually I think I can understand that, does it make things feel ordered when there is chaos?

Yeah I honestly didn't think I'd be into it but now I am and it does help. I wouldn't say everything is in order but definitely clears your mind. Or at least for me! Everyone is different. I guess to a point it can feel everything is ordered.

That's cool :-) I will maybe try that out :-) have you tried a game on iPhone called blockheads? Is kind of building stuff too and it had the same effect for me

No problem :-) Tetris used to help me a lot too, something about ordering those little coloured blocks seemed to help a lot, except of course when I was waiting for a long block, that would get a bit stressful :-p
