We live in an age of hyper-connectivity and mental overload, yet 15% of the global population struggles with something as basic — and essential — as emotional awareness.
Every day, more than 75% of people report experiencing stress or anxiety. But what’s even more alarming is a lesser-known psychological phenomenon that quietly affects millions: alexithymia — the inability to recognize, express, or understand one’s own emotions.
We live in an age of hyper-connectivity and mental overload, yet 15% of the global population struggles with something as basic — and essential — as emotional awareness.
Alexithymia is a condition where people have difficulty identifying and describing their emotions. They may know something is wrong, but can’t pinpoint what they’re feeling — let alone talk about it.
It’s not a lack of intelligence or empathy. In fact, people with alexithymia are often successful, logical, high-functioning professionals. But when it comes to their internal state, there’s a disconnect.
This emotional disconnect leads to communication challenges, burnout, anxiety, low productivity — and even chronic health issues.
And yet… people still struggle to ask for help.
Here’s the truth: people with emotional disconnection often find it easier to talk to a machine than to another person. There’s no pressure. No judgment. No awkwardness.
That’s why AI offers something revolutionary for the mental health world:
Talking to AI removes the fear of being misunderstood or judged. It’s always available — any time, any place.
AI can guide users to identify their feelings, reflect on them, and track them over time using tools like mood/color scales, voice journaling, or reflective exercises.
AI doesn’t replace psychologists, but it expands access. It offers early intervention, daily support, and emotional education for people who might never book a therapy session.
“Over the past 14 years working in psychology, I’ve met hundreds of people who shared one silent struggle — they couldn’t understand their emotions.
These were brilliant, accomplished, logical individuals. Yet when it came to their inner world, they felt lost.
We created Trust Me to change that — to give people the clarity, language, and tools to finally understand themselves.” — Ani Kolesnykova, CEO and Founder of Trust Me
