This app has been incredibly helpful for dealing with my mental illness and the complications that come along with it. Compassionate and positive reinforcement and support really goes a long way, but having a detailed organizational tool to keep track of medication/substance use/moods is really what helps me out the most, especially when talking to mental healthcare providers. I can simply open the app and give them a visual overview of how Ive been, and it helps put my own moods into perspective and give me an idea about how things are going.
However, there are a few things I would suggest changing or at the very least improving. I usually use the app early in the morning before work and have only a small window of time to use it. Whenever I open the daily quests tab on a particularly difficult day and am immediately faced with a really involved and elaborate task, I find myself getting easily overwhelmed or even discouraged. There are even times when I can only complete half the quest and feel guilty about it. The app may benefit from having different "levels" of quests presented in order - quest #1 of the day can be something simple and basic related to self-care, quest #2 could be a little more involved, and quest #3 could be a completely active task to complete when youre feeling more awake and prepared.
The ability to temporarily "pass" and come back to the quest later would also come in handy rather than just being locked into it until you complete or dismiss it. There are some quests I would love to do but dont have time for on the way to work and would much rather have an option to come back to it on my lunchbreak rather than having to hit "I cant do this now" and losing the opportunity for the day.
It might also be nice to provide more symptom options. I experience extreme emotions and would definitely utilize a coping mechanisms category for things beyond when my mood is just "too high".
Overall the app has been incredibly helpful and Rasko is a great pal - thanks for making such a useful and fun app for people who are struggling so much, youre really making a difference!
