Downloading a mental health app is one of the best decisions an individual can make if setting out on a journey to address a psychological issue.
For many people, knowing where to start when it comes to finding professional mental health support can be a daunting task, with some opting to start by finding mental health quotes and advice from friends in the first instance. However, there are now countless online options you can choose from that provide top quality mental health services remotely.
Better yet, research published in the National Library of Medicine in 2018 found that mental health apps may help improve the monitoring and management of mental health conditions, and many of them are regularly promoted by trained doctors and counsellors.
Some apps allow you to search for a therapist and treatment that suits you and provide information about how to best tackle your mental health issues, whether it’s through cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) or talking therapy. Others help you track your mood and send you reminders and exercises so you can immediately analyse your emotions, at the touch of a button.
