I heard about 7 cups of tea through HabitRPG
HabitRPG is a free game that uses 16bit graphics (or is it 8 bit? I tend to kid of confuse those) and RPG tropes of Health, Exp, Mana, and a drop and pet/mount/market system to encourage you to do more of what you want to do and less of the behaviors and habits you want to discourage.
I find it very fun and the way I found 7Cups is there is a guild just for people who self-identify as mentally ill. On it someone had made a challenge called "7 Cups of Tea" I didn't join the challenge right away, but the person also explained what it was in the chat feed for the guild page and I saved it to my bookmarks (I forgot to use his referral URL though)
I found 7 Cups from HabitRPG too! And I'm glad someone posted about it and created a challenge around it =)
This a new one. I haven't heard too many people coming from HabitRPG.
Is the app any good?
The app is an extension of the computer game.. You actually get more options on the computer, but the app is useful for during the day, keeping up with the positive/negative aspects of the habits, and crossing off dailies and to-dos.. also rewards are available and after the last update you can update your avatar on the app..
drawbacks to the app is that you can't interact with the market/drops and that the chat is restricted to members ($5 a month, still free to everyone using the computer) and only consists of the Tavern or your party and I don't think you can see the challenges that are available (that you haven't joined yet) through the app
But yes, the app is useful to have
Ohh I forgot to say. the app syncs together with the computer game.. I have it on my iPod Touch.. so if I take the touch with me and use it during the day.. when I go to the computer it will do sort of catch up calculations and factor in all my app usage to my status meters /drops
New update to the app just today announced that you can no feed and select pets from the app!
I'm here from HabitRPG too!
I'd heavily endorse the website to everyone! It's a great little motivator, especially once you join a party and your friend's in it are relying on you to do well so you can all do well against bosses!
Hello from 2015, all you 2014ers!
Came too from site. Hitting the challenge dailies off little by little. And a lot else besides! Parties are just the best ever. Do and let them all die. Lols.
I found this website through the same way. It's actually really good because I have some things going on in my life that I would like to talk about with people who are willing to listen. I hope that people find this website at the perfect time just like I did!
I came from there too! :)
Ik kan me voorstellen dat zo’n game echt motiverend kan zijn om gewoontes te veranderen en doelen bij te houden. Toen ik zelf even een pauze wilde van mijn dagelijkse routine, kwam ik toevallig spinmama tegen en besloot een gokje te wagen op hun casinospellen. Na een paar kleine verliesrondes had ik ineens een mooie winst te pakken, wat echt een leuke verrassing was en me meteen een boost gaf. Het hielp me ontspannen en gaf me zin om af en toe een paar rondjes te spelen als ontspanning naast andere games.
