Talk
Someone who talks to you like they love you.
Choose the voice that comforts you most, give them the traits you needed, and tell them what they call you. Then just chat, the way you would with someone who's always pleased to hear from you.
Warm · Funny · Patient · Proud of me
Make the voice your own
Twelve voices
Mother, Father, Grandmother, Grandfather, Stepmother, Stepfather, Friend, Best friend, Mentor, Brother, Sister, or a loving daughter or son. Full, half or step: family all the same.
Five traits each
Warm, Funny, Protective, Straight-talking, Proud of me and more. Each voice remembers its own five.
What they call you
Up to three pet names, like darling, my sweetheart or poppet. They'll vary between them, like real people do.
Feelings first, always
Every reply starts by noticing how you feel, simply and warmly: "Oh darling, I'm so sorry you're feeling sad. Do you want to talk about it?" Then comes safety, trust and encouragement. No lectures, no therapy-speak.
Or choose Just listen
Sometimes you just need to be heard. Say whatever you need to. No advice, no judgement. When you're done, keep your words, or let them go and watch them drift away.
Safe by design
If you ever say you're not safe, your voice gently points you to real people who can help.
