Sanctuary — OCD Page Blocker

Sanctuary puts a gentle, deliberate wall between you and the specific pages or videos your intrusive thoughts pull you toward. Built by someone with intrusive-thought OCD, for the moments when avoiding one specific page — not the whole internet — is what helps. HOW IT WORKS • Click the Sanctuary icon on any page or YouTube video, then "Block this page." • Go back to it later and you'll see a calm page with support resources instead. • Block one YouTube video without blocking the rest of YouTube. THE COOLING-OFF PERIOD You can't undo a block on impulse. You request removal, a countdown begins (you choose how long — default 7 days), and only after it ends can you confirm. That delay is the whole point: it lets a calmer, future you make the call. SAFETY BUILT IN • Crisis lines, mental-health, and government sites can never be blocked, so you can't wall yourself off from help. • Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no tracking, no servers, nothing transmitted — ever. HONEST LIMITATIONS Sanctuary lives in your browser. Disabling the extension, or using a different browser, gets around it. The cooling-off delay is what makes removing a block on impulse hard — that's the part that helps. Sanctuary is a self-help tool, not a treatment. It works best alongside real support. If you're struggling, the blocked page always lists places to talk to someone, and findahelpline.com finds one in your country.
