I moved schools and that was so sad for me. I am very shy it was so hard to make new friends. Learning ways to make new friends helped and it takes time.

I stopped eating and restricted everything. I was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa. Getting help to recover is really important so don't keep it to yourself.

If I had a chance to talk to someone earlier I would have. Because all you need is for someone to listen.

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.

My family was falling apart. I shut down and started self-harming. I learnt to stop blaming myself for my family. Having someone to listen really helped.

Highly certified app with very entertaining components relatable across multiple types of populations such as students and children. Although it is high quality with information and interactiveness, I would not necessarily pay for the app and in some cases I feel if students or children were to use the app without their parent's knowing for personal uses it may be difficult for them to want to pay for some of the most beneficial features which are not for free.
Expert feedback
This Headspace app makes meditation simple! This app uses the principles of mindfulness meditation to help improve focus, mood and sleep while working to reduce anxiety and stress. The free version allows users to 10-session trial before needing to subscribe to have access to a wider variety of sessions and programs. The downfall is that the subscription can be expensive.

I got pregnant at 15 and felt depressed and alone. Learning about my options and telling my mum helped. I got my confidence back and now I'm back at school.

If you are being bullied don't hesitate and get help and know what you can do about it. No matter how hard it is to believe it will get better.

Allows users to set and monitor the number/length of time they would like to use their phone each day.
Expert feedback
This app sets out to help users find phone/life balance by monitoring and tracking phone usage. It has a clean and simple design and while not designed to be engaging, it may help curve phone usage by using reminders and highlighting patterns of use.
