I created a web app that uses GPT-4 to help balance my anxious thoughts

Hacker News

I've been living with generalized anxiety and OCD for over a decade, and I often found myself in a cycle of constant overthinking. Grappling with my own experiences sparked the inspiration to create something for those who might be sharing a similar situation. Balance is a web app that employs GPT-4 to provide a novel way to tackle acute anxiety. All you need to do is tell it what's bothering you, and Balance crafts three unique interpretations of your situation. It's not here to diminish feelings, but rather to cast them in a different, less intimidating light. It's by no means intended to supersede professional assistance. If you're ever feeling overwhelmed or in distress, seeking professional help is paramount. I designed Balance with the aspiration to bring a little respite and fresh perspective for anyone grappling with acute anxiety situations. I'm releasing it as a completely free app (I currently have some free OpenAI credits that are paying for the AI side of it) with the hopes that it can help you like it's helping me. There are details on safety and privacy under "More info" on the website.
