The 90-day program
The program is called Storm to Clarity: 90 authored days, one a day, each about four minutes. It is built from cognitive behavioural therapy for gambling and the research on how gambling products are designed; the sources are on the methodology page.
Three phases
| Days | Phase | In the app's words |
|---|---|---|
| 1–30 | See the Machine | It was engineered. Drop the shame. |
| 31–60 | Rewire | Your brain is resetting. Trust the timeline. |
| 61–90 | Fortify | Build the life that competes. |
Your answer to When you gamble, it's mostly to… during onboarding tunes the program to what gambling does for you, so the examples and exercises fit.
A day's lesson
Each day is a short deck of cards: reading, quizzes, sliders, fill-ins, simulators, guided exercises and a small action to take. Days 30 and 90 end with a ceremony, and days 7, 30, 60 and 90 are milestones.
How days unlock
- One new day unlocks per calendar day. When you finish, Silex shows Done for today. Day N unlocks tomorrow. You can Read again any finished day.
- Days never expire. If you miss a day, the program waits for you; it only moves on when you complete the current day.
- After three or more quiet days, you're welcomed back where you left off.
After a lapse
A lapse is a moment, not the end of your recovery. Tap I gambled — reset with me on the Today tab and Silex walks you through it:
- What set it off? Pick the trigger.
- Roughly how much? The amount comes off your money-kept total.
- Noted. Now it's data, not a secret. Then Back on track.
What changes afterwards:
- Your current run starts again from the lapse. Your total days free is never wiped: it keeps every gamble-free day you've had.
- A Reset day is added before your next scheduled day. It doesn't use up a calendar day, and finishing it earns the Kintsugi orb.
- Your reminders are rescheduled around the lapse.
The program and lessons need an active subscription. The lapse flow itself, SOS and the crisis lines don't; see what stays free.
