PanicPlan

PanicPlan is a mobile app (with optional web portal) that helps people with anxiety and depression create a realistic, step-by-step “if-then” plan for their worst moments—panic attacks, spirals, shutdowns, or insomnia nights. Instead of generic meditation libraries, it builds a personalized protocol: early warning signs, grounding steps, medication reminders (if applicable), safe contacts, and a pre-written message you can send when you can’t think. The app uses AI only to draft and refine the plan from a short intake, then locks it into a simple, offline-first checklist you can run under stress. It includes a one-tap “I’m not okay” mode that switches the UI to big buttons, minimal text, and timed prompts. This is not therapy and won’t replace clinicians; it’s a practical crisis-prep tool for everyday spikes, designed to be used when your brain is unreliable.
