Hey everyone, my name Maison and im building an app that I wish I had when I needed it.
My app is called Ura, I bootstrapped and built it after overcoming my own addiction and anxiety, now over 10k downloads and have grown our tiktok to nearly 7k followers and 2.8m likes.
If dealt with a choice about situations in your life always think of this:
“Short term pain for long term gain”
Or
“Short term pleasure for long term pain”
This choice will determine if you stay in the same loop or break it and become a new version of yourself
The next big app in the porn addiction space is one that is fully catered to females addicted with porn
Female traffic could reach roughly 45% by 2030. Yet most porn-recovery products are still built almost entirely around men.
Want proof belief can change your body?
Ask someone with anxiety.
Nothing bad has to happen. Your brain only has to believe it might.
That belief can race your heart, dry your mouth and make danger feel real.
Fear can begin with a prediction.
Built something people said was “you won’t be able to compete with the big apps in my space.”
Now it’s on a billboard.
We’re only getting started 📈@uraapp_
Anhedonia is the next EPIDEMIC nobody is talking about
your reward system gets pushed so high that normal life stops feeling like anything
so you chase more
and every time you do
the baseline drops lower
most people medicate instead of resetting
but medication pushes that threshold even higher until the meds stop working
and you're left unable to feel anything at all
that's where the suicide rates are coming from.
@ick_real There isn't a "cure"
but there is a cause and when you change the life that created it and stop treating it as something you "have"
it loses its grip
Why not make the change what do you have to lose?
@sciencegirl Action
not thinking about it not planning it not waiting until you feel ready
the moment you start doing the feeling follows
you don't think your way out of a bad mental state you act your way out.
@anxietymsgs You can't "remove" them
but you don't have to believe every thought you have
most negative thoughts aren't the truth they're just
patterns your brain defaults to
the goal isn't a quiet mind it's learning which thoughts are worth listening to.
@wisdomXplorer The one you built a personality around
because quitting the substance is one thing
but quitting who you've been for years is a completely different challenge.
@wisdomXplorer Needing to be perceived a certain way
you'll exhaust yourself performing a version of yourself that was never real to begin with
and the scariest part is you can't even remember who you were before the mask.
@livewithnoregrt There isn't a "cure"
but there is a cause
and when you change the life that created it and stop treating it as something you "have"
it loses its grip
@beyoumf There isn't one
but there is a cause
and when you change the life that created it and stop treating it as something you "have"
it loses its grip
@omgsidewalks By changing the life that caused it
and refusing to believe it was my identity
the moment you stop treating it as something you "have" and start seeing it as something your life created
it loses its grip.
@Dearme2_ You don't conquer it
you listen to it
anxiety is just your mind telling you the life you're living isn't the one you're supposed to be living
the moment I stopped fighting it and started asking what it was trying to say
everything changed.
