I feel like I’ve been working on this for years and in many ways, I have. If you’re looking for a new Depression app to help you manage your symptoms your way, this is it.
Creating this Depression app was a labour of love
If you’ve seen any of my other work, you’ll know that Depression is my thing. When I was a kid I wanted to be a child Psychologist, not a ballerina or a princess. And this was before I knew I had Depression. For me, I want to understand myself better and I do that by interacting with other people, and finding out what has helped them.
I also do it by sharing what I’ve learned over the years. I don’t have all the answers, but I do have some of them.
And I’m willing to share.
That’s why this Depression app is free
Yes, there is a premium membership that costs $47NZ per month. That gets you a more individual experience on the DeMusers app and gives you greater access to me, so that you can get your questions answered quickly and directly from my own experience.
But, the premium membership is not necessary to enjoy the full benefits of the DeMusers app. You can get all the information you need, to live a fulfilled life WITH Depression.
So, what’s in the DeMusers Depression app?
Well. It’s basically the same process I followed to create the life I have now, after 30 plus years of living with Depression. (Yep, I had Depression as a child even though we didn’t know it back then). And I’ve thrown in a few extras.
Every day in the DeMusers app, I publish a journal prompt for you to work on. And when I say “you”, I really mean “us” because I do it too, along with my other daily journal work. Some of these are about working through shadow, some are about building self-esteem. All are relevant for managing Depression with class, elegance and grace. (Not to mention, huge guns when they’re needed).
I also publish a weekly collective tarot reading each week to give us all a heads up on the issues we might find ourselves battling during the week. This is a specific mental health spread that I created so that we’re not completely blindsided when shit hits the fan, or when the demon comes calling. This spread also tells you how you can manage whatever issues come up during the week.
There’s checklists in there, audio meditations, video tutorials and I’m building the mother of all resource lists for us as well.
How to make the most of the DeMusers Depression app
In the DeMusers app, you’ll find information and resources to help you work through the ORCHID formula. This all the elements that need to be in place so that you can create your own Creature of Fucking Beauty.
To answer the most obvious question, a Creature of Fucking Beauty (CFB) is the thing you create from your Depression. It’s what you produce when you take all you’ve learned from your Depression, all its made you feel and all its made you think about yourself.
Ad it can be anything really. For me its a vampire novel (don’t worry, I’ll give you plenty of notice when I’m about to publish it). For you it might be a drawing, a cake, an outift, a song, and so much more. It’s whatever and however the muse strikes you to express your Depression.
To get that shit out of your head and onto something tangible.
Once it’s out of your head, you can turn it into whatever you want. It can be a hobby, a business, a project, a life-long mission. It can be the start of something for you, it can turn into something you’ve never even thought of before.
Or it can simply be therapy. It’s entirely up to you.
Check it out on google play and let me know if there’s anything else you’d like to see on there.
