About
WorryPad was created by Miguel Hernandez, founder of Bitmain Studios Inc, on June 2010 with the goal to create a place on the Internet where anyone could share their problems and help others feel better.
The idea came from one of those list of things to help you reduce stress. One of the items was to write down your worries on a piece of paper.
The simple act of writing down your worries is an emotionally purging or cathartic act. Suddenly, your worries have found another place to live, on that piece of paper, outside your mind. So I tried and it worked!.
Of course, the problem or source of the worry is not going to disappear magically, but the worry, the obnoxious feeling manufactured by our mind is eliminated or at least diminished.
So with that in mind, I wanted to create an online version of the worry pad but with the additional advantage of letting other people cheer you up by means of a big CheerUp button or by encouraging you through comments.
So there you go, from now on every time something bothers you go to Worrypad share your worries and start feeling better immediately!
