OK. I try to see articles and find a positive spin where I can say "hackers could ...". To some people it would be obvious, but to young or non-tech people it might not be, so it could be helpful to them.

As other commenters have said, psychiatry/psychology is an ineffective field and also expensive.

The self-help industry is kind of related to psychology/psyciatry, is unregulated, and a $11 billion a year field.

I gave a mention of a documentary that came out recently about people building apps in this category of self help/health/life monitoring kind of stuff. Some terms to google to find out more are what I typed in the OC.

I would pay folding money for this software+usage data - and I am just an affected individual (bipolar for 20 years). I went through a phase of asking for survey information (after they had published their paper article etc.)- no one would give it up.
