About the app:
Often we worry about everyday things. Later we realize most of those worries were unnecessary and some irrational too. Yet, we worry again for something else soon. Worry Watch is a unique app that helps to reflect on those momentary priceless self-realizations.
By writing down our ‘what if’ anxious thoughts and tracking it to ‘what did’ happen reality, we may get a deeper understanding of our anxiety patterns and triggers. Such an understanding may help challenge our negative thinking habits and affirm optimism instead.
How it works:
1. Record:
Write down what is bothering you and set a reminder to revisit the outcome later.
2. Reflect:
Once past the worry, note whether the outcome was as bad as worried.
3. Reason:
Keep journaling and analyze your thought patterns logically with the help of statistics & dashboard.
4. Realize:
Based on your own statistics, realize that your worries may be mostly unfounded.
5. Refute:
Challenge your worry perception when you tend to be anxious again.
