SAM is a friendly app that offers a range of self-help methods for people who are serious about learning to manage their anxiety.
SAM has been developed by a university team of psychologists, computer scientists and student users. Established methods of self-help have been combined with high standards of usability to provide an engaging, flexible, and practical resource.
The key features of SAM are:
• Clearly laid out menus • User guidance • External links • Self-monitoring of anxiety with graphical display • 25 self-help options covering: Information about anxiety, Thinking and anxiety, Physical relaxation, Mental relaxation, Health and Anxiety • Guidance on putting self-help into practice • Closed social network of SAM users
The content of SAM is presented in various media formats in order to support users in learning about anxiety and practicing self-help. Although not text-heavy, users will need to study the guidance to get the best out of SAM. Users are encouraged to build their own Anxiety Toolkit of SAM resources that they find helpful and to draw on this for regular practice in managing situations that are associated with anxiety.
SAM may be used with or without the support of a registered health practitioner but you may wish to consult with your local health or well-being practitioner if you are uncertain about using SAM.

Comments on Self-help Anxiety Management for Android
★★★★★

★★★★★

★★★★★
One of my teachers who has been helping me with anxiety recommended me this
app ,I works rather well and I would recommend it to some people.
★★☆☆☆
Not good. App is designed for less than android 10. Error "this was made for older version". Tried to contact by email. Email was auto-returned
★★☆☆☆
Basic CBT which is proven to be completely useless for anxiety. This app is more a toy.Let your kids play it .Useless for anything else
★★☆☆☆
While I like some aspects of this app such as being able to visualise a thought floating by or a worry being exploded away I find that because this app is almost entirely text-based a reading/concentration is much harder in the middle of a panic attack this app is not for me. The breathing exercise is also too long for me, I wish you could make it 3 seconds instead of 4 or more. The peaceful pictures is a nice idea but it would be better if you could add your own images.
★★☆☆☆
Me- I'm having terrible anxiety and feel sick to my stomach when thinking about the future. Sam app- try breathing or look at this picture of a leaf. Absolute garbage as expected.
