Anxiety, Journal, Peer Support
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Anxious? Overwhelmed? You don't have to carry it alone. Track moods, journal privately, breathe through the hard moments, and join a Circle that listens.
You are not alone.
In a world that often feels disconnected, Kindred serves as a sanctuary—a secure, calm environment to share your burdens, track your well-being, and connect with those who understand your experiences.
Kindred is a structured peer-support platform designed for mental wellness, emotional healing, and authentic connection. It provides forum-style circles, a private journal, mood and streak tracking, and immediate-help tools, all without the distractions of traditional social media.
FIND YOUR CIRCLE
Join dedicated peer-support communities focused on the challenges you are navigating:
• Depression Support
• Anxiety Relief
• Addiction Recovery
• Relationships and Heartbreak
• Loneliness and Connection
SHARE YOUR STORY
Our forum-style Story Feed provides the space to express yourself fully—whether you need to vent, ask for advice, or share a victory. Posts are designed to remain visible, ensuring the community has the opportunity to listen and engage.
RESONATE, DO NOT "LIKE"
In Kindred, you Resonate with others to demonstrate genuine empathy. Threaded replies are designed to foster meaningful dialogue rather than shallow engagement.
MOOD CHECK-IN AND INSIGHTS
Log your mood in seconds. Tag the factors influencing your state, such as sleep, work, family, or finances. Over time, observe your patterns to see which emotions arise most frequently, what triggers them, and how your week has trended. A gentle weekly review helps you stay connected to your own emotional health.
PRIVATE SANCTUARY
Your journal is stored securely on your device by default. We provide daily, CBT-based prompts for moments when you are unsure where to begin. When you are ready, you may choose to share an entry anonymously to a Circle, while keeping your identity and the remainder of your journal private.
STREAKS AND MILESTONES
Maintain custom counters for the goals that matter most to you, such as days sober, days without self-harm, or days you achieved a specific personal milestone. We celebrate your progress to help you maintain momentum.
SOS TOOLKIT
For the most difficult moments, we provide immediate tools. Access box-breathing animations, a 5-4-3-2-1 grounding walkthrough, and a region-aware list of 24/7 crisis lines—all available with one tap from anywhere in the app.
LEARN
Access concise, two-minute readings on mental health topics, such as the physical effects of anxiety, the distinction between sadness and depression, setting boundaries, and coping mechanisms for when you feel overwhelmed. This content is written to be informative and supportive, never preachy.
SAFE AND MODERATED
Kindred is a moderated community with a zero-tolerance policy for abuse. Robust reporting tools, blocking features, and the ability to participate anonymously ensure that your safety and privacy remain protected at every step.
MEDICAL DISCLAIMER
Kindred is a peer-support platform and does not provide clinical diagnosis, therapy, or medical advice. Please consult a healthcare professional for medical concerns. If you are in a crisis, please contact your local emergency services or a crisis hotline immediately.
