Sober Grid – Social Network




Young adult feedback
Sober Grip is a good quality app that creates a space for users to connect and keep track of their sobriety. The app relies on users actively engaging with others and doesn’t offer much beyond community connection. Although the design is simple, the app provides what it claims to offer and could be recommended to young adults.
Expert feedback
Sober Grid offers global community connection for users seeking support for sobriety. The app uses a news feed-similar to Facebook- where users can share experiences, create group chats, connected with local peers, and discuss strategies to help motivate each other towards goal achievement. Users are able to create a detailed Profile and earn badges acknowledging progress achievements. An affiliate link to AA is provided but there is little offered with regard to educational resources.

I know it's really hard and tough to seek help

I just wanted to express my thoughts and for someone to listen to me and to not fix me. Kids Helpline did that. I was really grateful how they were able to listen to me and yet helped me process what I was going through. I tried Kids Helpline because they were directed towards young people and were more youth-friendly than some other services. When I was talking with Kids Helpline I felt more comfortable and okay with my problems. They were not solved per se but I felt that they weren't as debilitating.
Your story can help others!
We'd love to hear how Kids Helpline helped you overcome the tough times so that we can share with others who are struggling.

I tried pot because my boyfriend was doing it. I got addicted. Thankfully my best friend talked me out of it. I broke up with him and my life is back on track.

I was a 'party girl' and 'getting messy' was my thing. But I didn't need to drink to be liked. I learnt to accept myself and find friends who accepted me.

I was getting so drunk I had no control over what I was doing. I was unhappy with myself. With support I fixed the issues the lead me to drink to stopped.

At the age of 16 I started smoking pot. I met a girl who made me realise I didn't need pot to be happy. I needed to heal and move on.


Cracks in the Ice

Lots of information on this, not sure if it would be overwhelming to the average user or more of a resource that people would use to learn more as oppose to using for help.
Expert feedback
Cracks in the Ice has a wealth of trusted and evidence-based information on Ice for a number of different community members. While scoring low on engagement, the app has done well to present this information in a clear and concise way.
