  • In Chrome, you can download and install a free browser self-help app called “Instawell”.
  • After installing the app, launch it from your Chrome app launcher.
  • You will then be asked to log in or register. For new users, you will need to register before you can post a card. A card is where you can write your problem and then ask for help or advice from Instawell’s diverse community of helpers.
  • At the same time, you can also choose to become a helper. A helper is like a guidance counselor so your job is to give advices to troubled users.
  • In Instawell, you can sort out issues and problems by tags. There’s a tag for abuse, addiction, depression, stress, relationships, etc.
