The Traffic-Light Principle: How the app adapts to your tension level

Move the slider on the 0 to 10 scale (or tap a zone) to see how SOS Borderline adapts the check-in flow and tools to your current stress level.

5 / 10
‹ › Drag the slider or tap a number (0–10) Tension Scale (0–10)
0–3 • Calm (Green) 4–7 • Elevated Tension (Yellow) 8–10 • High Stress (Red)
What happens when you tap “Check-in” (Level 5): The app opens the Mood Check with Chain Analysis so you can log up to 3 triggers, thoughts, and how your chosen skill helped.
Chain Analysis (Triggers & Thoughts) Yellow Phase Crisis Plan Skills: 4-7-8 Breathing & 5-4-3-2-1
Green Zone • Tension 0–3

Reflection, Daily Baseline & Prevention

At low tension (“Everything is okay.”), checking in opens the mood journal for mood, energy, activities, and notes. On the home screen, you can also log your Daily Check-In (sleep duration, sleep quality, medication).

In Crisis Plan: Green phase strategies & personal early warning signs
Analytics: 7- and 30-day insights right on the home screen
Yellow Zone • Tension 4–7

Early Intervention & Chain Analysis

When pressure builds (“Tension is elevated.”), the app helps you counter it early: Record up to 3 triggers, up to 3 thoughts, and your used skill during check-in, and rate right away whether it lowered your tension (Better / Same / Worse).

In Crisis Plan: Your saved strategies for the yellow phase
Typical Skills: 4-7-8 Breathing, 5-4-3-2-1 Grounding, PMR, Check the Facts
Red Zone • Tension 8–10

Acute Mode with Zero Questionnaire Friction

From level 8 (“High stress level.”), checking in automatically switches to Acute Mode: Instead of asking long questions, an emergency sheet opens immediately with direct access to your Crisis Plan & Emergency Kit and your Emergency Contacts (optional: “Check in anyway”).

Instant Help: Red phase Crisis Plan, Emergency Kit checklist & Contacts
Acute Skills: Ice Dive (TIPP), cold water, intense sensory skills

All your tools in one safe place

More than just an app – Your daily companion

Living with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) or intense emotional sensitivity often feels like a rollercoaster. SOS Borderline was built to support you right where it matters: in everyday life – whether for independent self-help or alongside therapy.

Inspired by Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), the app bridges the gap between "I actually know what helps me" and "In a crisis, I can't think clearly".

01 / SELF-HELP

For Individuals

Gain everyday security: Spot early warning signs, keep your emergency kit in your pocket, and see clearly which skills genuinely help you regulate tension.

02 / SUPPORT NETWORK

For Loved Ones & Partners

A shared Crisis Plan PDF creates clarity before a crisis hits: What helps in the yellow or red zone – and what should be avoided?

03 / THERAPY

For Therapy Sessions

No more paper sheets: Export structured reports covering up to 180 days including trigger-skill correlations directly as a clean PDF.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is Borderline (BPD)?

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is characterized by strong mood swings, rapidly rising inner tension, and emotional instability. Those affected often experience feelings more intensely and for longer. SOS Borderline helps you regulate these acute states of tension ("Red Phase") safely with over 70 skills and a structured crisis plan.

What does DBT mean?

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is an evidence-based approach developed specifically for BPD and emotion regulation. It teaches concrete skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Our app puts these skills at your fingertips whenever you need them.

How do the Emergency Kit and Chain Analysis help me?

In the Emergency Kit, you pre-pack your most effective skills and real-world items (e.g., spiky massage ball, cold pack, sour candy) so you don't have to search during a crisis. With Chain Analysis, you can select up to 3 triggers and thoughts per check-in. On the home screen, you can evaluate over 7 or 30 days which skills helped you most for specific triggers.

Can I use the app for my therapy?

Absolutely. You can export both your personal Crisis Plan (including Emergency Kit) and your Mood Diary (Digital Diary Card) for up to 180 days as a structured PDF report to discuss patterns and progress.

How much does the app cost?

SOS Borderline offers you 14 days full access to all Premium functions (all 70+ skills, diary, chain analysis, crisis plan & PDF export) from the start – with no registration, no upfront payment, and no subscription trap. Afterwards, you decide freely whether to unlock the full toolkit permanently via a fair annual subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.

Do I have to register?

No. You start immediately and anonymously. No account or email address is required. Thanks to our Local-First architecture, all data stays on your device and can be backed up locally anytime.

What happens after the 14 days?

Don't worry, there is no automatic cost trap. Because you don't enter payment details upfront, the trial ends automatically after 14 days. Your recorded data and saved emergency contacts remain safely stored on your device, and you can decide anytime whether to unlock Premium.
