How does anonymous sharing work?

When you post anonymously, your identity is not shown to other community members. This free feature is central to Help My Mind. Anonymity is visual, in the public interface. Connection logs, IP addresses and internal identifiers remain associated with the account for security, legal compliance and the other purposes described in the Privacy Policy. Even when posting anonymously, do not include full names, addresses, phone numbers, documents or anything that could identify you or someone else. Anonymous posts follow the same rules and moderation.

How does the Help My Mind feed work?

The feed brings together posts from the communities you belong to. If it is empty, join communities or publish your first post. Use filters to see what is trending, or sort by most relevant, latest or most popular. At the top, the stories bar shows quick updates from the community.

How do I support and comment on posts?

Instead of public likes, Help My Mind uses support gestures. Tap support to show you read the post and care. Comment to share your experience, reply to other comments and follow a conversation to get notified. Speak from your own experience and avoid directing other people’s personal decisions. You can delete your comments and recognize comments that helped you.

How do I edit, hide or delete a post?

How do I search for posts, comments, communities and people?

App search has tabs for posts, comments, communities, profiles, professionals and articles. In the posts tab, search looks at the title and the text; in the comments tab, only at comment text. Sort by relevance, featured, most supported, newest or most comments, and filter by period, from the last hour to the last year. When you tap a comment in the results, you go straight to the post with that comment highlighted. You can clear your search history at any time.

How do I share a post, story or profile?
