Worry burner
Free, no account. Your worry never leaves this browser, and it's gone once it burns.
Optional. If there's a next step, write it here. It's the only part that survives the fire.
Nothing you write here is sent anywhere. The worry is wiped the moment it burns.
How to burn a worry
- 1
Write it down
Put the worry into words, as messy as it is. Seeing it on the page already makes it smaller.
- 2
Find one small step
If there's something you can actually do, write it down. If there isn't, that's fine too: leave it empty.
- 3
Burn it
Tap Burn it and watch it go. Your next step stays, the worry doesn't.
For the worries that keep coming back
Burning a worry helps you let go for now. When the same one keeps looping, writing it out properly helps more.
Write until it's out
Freewrite for ten minutes without stopping. Loops tend to unwind once they're on the page.

FAQ
Writing a worry down moves it out of your head and onto the page, which many people find calming. Throwing it away afterwards is a small ritual that says "done for now". It's not therapy, but it's a good way to stop a loop.
No. Your text stays in this browser while you write, so a reload won't lose it, and it's deleted the moment you burn it. Nothing is sent to a server. Only a count of how many worries you've burned is kept.
Some worries point at something you can do. Writing one small action turns a vague fear into a plan, and that's the part worth keeping. You can save it to BrainDump after the burn.
Worries that keep returning are worth looking at more closely, by writing them out or talking to someone you trust. If worry is taking over your days, a doctor or therapist can help.
