Profile

I have had terrible anxiety (and related physical symptoms) for the last couple years. It would trigger mostly when I was engaged in work (software dev), even for shorter periods. One day while I was completely obsessed with a work related problem, there was a sudden power failure. It was just long enough to break my "obsession loop" and forced me to attend to some household chores while waiting for the power to be restored. A few mins in, I noticed that I felt a lot better/lighter/loose physically and also, spontaneously had multiple other solutions to the problem I was stuck on.That inspired me to build this app. It acts just like that external “intervention” to break my infinite/obsession
