As a creative with ADHD, I turn to slow breathing exercises when my mind’s too busy. This Jitter animation is inspired by those moments and aims to regulate the nervous system.
It’s designed for use in a wellbeing app to support anyone who feels overwhelmed, especially neurodivergent or anxious users. The looping animation guides steady breath-work: 5 seconds in, 5 seconds out, with a 2 second pause.
The circular shapes are inspired by blood cells and the role of oxygen in stress management. Soft blue gradients and the “Salsa” typeface make it more approachable.
I also made a simple GarageBand track with gentle and steady tones, increasing attention without distraction.
This was my first time using Jitter 😊
@Derian Thank you for reminding the ADHD goblin in me to breathe, this is lovely!
@Kayla Elorza Thank you, that means a lot! I’m glad it resonated. I actually saved it to my phone and have been using it whenever I’ve got too many tabs open in my mind 😂
Quick question: did you notice the audio glitch in the MP4, or did you preview it in Jitter where it plays as intended?
@Derian Ooh, I didn’t realize on first watch at my laptop, but when watching the mp4 on my phone, I did notice an audio glitch around 7 seconds.
@Kayla Elorza Hmmm, no audio glitch on re-export. Strange. At least it wasn’t obvious enough to catch the first time around 😊
@Derian So thoughtful and beautifully done. I love the intention behind it! It’s calming and empowering all at once. The sound really ties it all together!!
@Thishni De Silva Thanks, that’s very kind of you to say 😊
