Start

Take a depression test, track your progress and side effects, and see yourself get better. Start helps you decide if your antidepressant works for you.

"This app really helped me keep track of my progress when I started my medication. It was a lot easier to gauge if I was improving or not based on my progress reports. The reminders were positive and discreet and they had a tip every day that made me feel a lot more comfortable with my decision to take medication. I'm really happy this app exists, as it made my beginning journey to recovery a lot easier."

"I'm glad I found this app. It's really helped me realize that my medication is truly doing what it's suppose to! Sometimes when you have these illnesses, you don't see the results for yourself, so I'm glad this app helps you see that!"

"Not only does it help me keep track of my progress, but it makes me self-reflect on areas I'm improving in and areas to keep working at. I just received my second progress report and it shows how I've improved! It's really quite encouraging, especially because it's hard to see the progress yourself... I didn't think I was improving much, but the report gives an accurate representation of your week (versus what my head likes to tell me/make-up). "

Oprah Magazine — "Iodine makes it easier to understand prescription drug side effects."

New York Times — "Iodine is addressing a notable information gap in health care for consumers and providers."

THE SECRET SAUCE

Start is based on the largest study ever conducted on antidepressant use in the real world. The research says that if you're taking a medication that works for you, you should start seeing improvement by 6 weeks. Start measures your progress with the clinically validated surveys PHQ-9 and PHQ-2, and gives you bi-weekly reports to help you see if you're feeling better.
