Supporter Guide
Help the people close to you understand what’s happening beneath the surface.
Turn what you’ve recognised about yourself into a guide for someone you trust: what they may notice, what’s easy to misread, and what tends to help.
Built from your saved Experiences. You choose what goes in it, and nothing is shared unless you share it.
- “They seem fine.”
- “Why can’t they just start?”
- “Why the sudden crash?”
You shouldn’t have to explain yourself from scratch every time.
Being misread is tiring. Explaining it, usually in the moment and with nothing left, is harder. And when you don’t explain, the misreading carries on.
A Supporter Guide explains it once, clearly, in a way you’ve chosen.
Inside the guide
What goes into a Supporter Guide.
Every Supporter Guide follows a clear structure. What fills it comes from your BirdStory and the Experiences you choose to share.
- You review it first. It stays private until you share it.
- You choose which Experiences appear.
- They read it by view-only link or PDF, with no account.
- Turn the link off any time.

What changes
Understanding changes how someone sees the moment.
- “I don't understand why this is happening.”
- “I think I understand what might be behind this.”
- “I can respond with more understanding.”
The shift isn't always knowing exactly what to do. It's understanding enough to see the person more clearly.
