In a crisis? You are not alone — reach a real person now.
This is an AI wellness companion — NOT therapy, and NOT a substitute for a licensed mental-health professional. Use it for reflection, coping strategies, and journaling prompts; talk to a therapist for diagnosis, treatment, or medication.
Wellness reflection
You deserve real support — this AI is a reflection tool, not therapy. If anything here resonates deeply, or if you've been struggling for more than two weeks, reach out to a therapist, counselor, or one of the helplines above. You are worth that call.

No — and it should never be. Free.ai's wellness companion is an AI reflection tool useful for journaling prompts, CBT reframes, grounding exercises, and just having somewhere to write out what is on your mind. It is NOT a licensed clinician and cannot diagnose, treat, or prescribe. For ongoing care, find a therapist via Psychology Today, Open Path (sliding scale), or your insurance provider.
No. If you are in crisis, please reach a real person: 988 (US Suicide and Crisis Lifeline, call or text), Samaritans 116 123 (UK), or findahelpline.com worldwide. IASP also maintains a global crisis-center directory. Free.ai is not routed to any crisis team — you need to reach out to these services yourself, and we hope you will.
Woebot and Wysa are CBT chatbots built around specific clinical protocols. BetterHelp ($260+/mo) connects you with real licensed therapists. Free.ai is a general wellness companion — broader in topic, free, and private, but it does not replace a therapist for ongoing care. Use it as a journaling partner between real sessions.
Supportive listening for low-stakes reflection, CBT-style reframes for anxiety or low mood, journaling prompts, grounding exercises (5-4-3-2-1), breathing protocols (box breathing, 4-7-8), gratitude reframes, DBT distress-tolerance skills. Think of it as a thoughtful friend who read enough psychology books — useful for thinking out loud, not for clinical intervention.
Yes. Text is processed on our GPUs just long enough to generate the response, then discarded. Nothing is stored in a user-linked record, nothing is shared, nothing is used for training. We recommend keeping messages focused on feelings and thoughts — avoid pasting identifying details (full names, addresses, clinical records).
No. It is instructed never to label you with a clinical diagnosis ("depression", "PTSD", "bipolar"). If what you describe sounds like a pattern that could benefit from professional evaluation, it will gently say so and point to resources — but only a licensed clinician can diagnose.
Eight: supportive listening, CBT cognitive reframe, mindfulness and grounding, journaling prompts, practical next steps, breathing exercise, DBT distress-tolerance skill, gratitude reframe. Pick the one that matches what you actually need right now — sometimes that is practical steps, sometimes it is just "please help me slow down for a second".
Yes — "grief or loss" is a focus option and the AI responds with companioning language, not the "five stages" cliché. For prolonged grief, complicated grief, or traumatic loss, please connect with a grief counselor (What's Your Grief, The Dougy Center for kids, or local hospice support groups). Grief is too heavy to carry alone.
Yes — Free.ai supports 99 languages. Mental-health responses are warmest in the language you think in. Write in Spanish, French, Arabic, Japanese, whatever language your feelings live in. The AI responds in the same language.
Daily free token pool (2,500 guest, 10,000 signed-up) covers many reflections. Each response deducts ~300 tokens. No subscription, no ads selling your data, no "freemium gate" locking the useful modes. Mental Health Chatbot is free because we believe mental-health support shouldn't have a paywall.
That is a signal worth listening to. If you find yourself using Free.ai daily for the same struggle, it is time to reach a therapist. A human clinician can offer pattern-recognition across weeks, proper treatment (including medication when appropriate), and a therapeutic relationship that AI cannot replicate. We would rather you graduate from Mental Health Chatbot.
Absolutely — and many users do. Between sessions, use Free.ai to journal, practice CBT skills your therapist taught you, or process a feeling before your next appointment. Bring the reflection to your therapist; it often fast-tracks the session. Just keep the AI in its lane — it is the between-session warm-up, not the main act.
