Worry-time app

A worry-time app for capturing now and reviewing by choice

Let It Out supports a worry-postponement workflow: record the concern, set a revisit timer, and return at a chosen time.

Scheduled worry time is a self-help technique described by health services and CBT resources. Let It Out applies one practical part of that workflow: capturing a worry and choosing when to revisit it. The app is not therapy and does not determine whether postponement is appropriate for a particular situation.

Who this workflow is designed for

  • Non-urgent worries that interrupt other activities
  • People already using scheduled worry time
  • Anyone who wants a reminder-based alternative to a paper list

How it works

1

Record the concern

Capture enough detail to recognize the issue later.

2

Choose the time

Set a revisit point that fits your own routine and guidance.

3

Use the review

Decide whether the concern is actionable, hypothetical, resolved, or still important.

What makes it different

  • Revisit timers are part of the core workflow
  • Entries remain organized in a worry box
  • Perspective views help compare past entries
  • The workflow works alongside, not instead of, professional support
