Can you promote in r/anxiety?
Discussion and support for sufferers and loved ones with anxiety conditions. Please look over the rules before posting to the subreddit.
The short answer
Do not promote or mention your product/company; instead offer non-commercial supportive advice and, if appropriate, direct users to seek professional help or the sub's resources.
What works here
- Non-commercial supportive comments
- Sharing personal experiences (non-promotional)
- Referring to public resources in the wiki or crisis links
What gets posts removed
- Advertising products, services, apps, or blogs
- Asking users to DM or move conversation off‑site
- Posting surveys, research, or solicitations without prior approval
- Claims of quick fixes or miracle cures
