What RSD Log does

RSD Log is the offline CBT loop for adults with ADHD who get hit by Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria — the emotional snap after perceived criticism or rejection that makes you certain you're about to be fired, dumped, or unfriended.

70–90% of adults with ADHD experience RSD. That's 10.8–14 million Americans. Therapists treat it with a CBT loop: log the trigger, log what your brain told you, and 24 hours later log what actually happened. Over time, the evidence file disproves the brain's catastrophic predictions. The problem: no app closes that 24-hour loop. Generic mood trackers (Bearable) don't ask. AI journals (InnerHeal) want a cloud account for the most private moments of your week.

What RSD Log does:

— Quick log when the spike hits: trigger (one sentence), severity (0–10), the story your brain just told you ('she hates me now'). — 24-hour follow-up. Tomorrow, a single notification opens yesterday's entry and asks: what actually happened? — Distortion taxonomy. Tap to mark cognitive distortions (mind-reading, catastrophizing, all-or-nothing). — Evidence file. Over weeks, scroll through the log and see how often your brain's predictions were wrong. The numbers do the convincing. — Stays on this phone. SwiftData, no iCloud sync, no analytics, no AI prompts going to a server.

For the 11 million Americans whose ADHD includes a rejection-detection alarm that fires too often — the tool the alarm needs to hear from.

Spike log — Trigger, severity 0-10, the story your brain told you
24h follow-up — Tomorrow's notification opens yesterday's entry asking what actually happened
Distortions — Tap to label mind-reading/catastrophizing/all-or-nothing on each entry
Evidence file — Scroll log: prediction vs outcome, percentage of catastrophic predictions disproven
Severity heatmap — Calendar view tinted by RSD intensity per day

Why we built it

RSD therapy depends on a 24-hour evidence loop — log the trigger and catastrophic prediction, then check 24 hours later what actually happened. No iOS app closes that loop; generic mood trackers don't prompt, AI journals require cloud accounts for the most private moments.

What makes it different

RSD Log is the only iOS app that closes the 24-hour CBT evidence loop for Rejection-Sensitive Dysphoria — when you log a spike, a UserNotification fires 24h later to ask 'what actually happened,' building an on-device evidence file that disproves catastrophic predictions over time — Bearable is a generic symptom track…

Who it's for

Anyone who wants honest tracking without a coach, a subscription, or a streak guilting them at 11pm.
