> *Important:* Masaraat is *not* a diagnostic tool. It does *not* determine whether you have depression or anxiety, and it never replaces an evaluation by a qualified health-care professional.

Masaraat is a privacy-first companion app that helps you (and, if you choose, your clinician) see how well your current treatment plan is working—so adjustments can be made sooner and recovery can stay on track.

### What Masaraat does

* *Simple weekly check-ins* – Answer evidence-based questions in under two minutes to chart mood, energy, sleep, and anxiety trends.
* *Clear visual feedback* – Spot progress, plateaus, or setbacks at a glance.
* *Medication & therapy log* – Keep an organised timeline of doses, side-effects, appointments, and lifestyle factors.
* *Optional clinician sharing* – Send real-time symptom graphs to your GP, nurse practitioner, or psychiatrist with a single code.
* *Smart reminders & safety nudges* – Get gentle prompts if scores suggest it may be time to review your plan, plus crisis resources when you need them.

### What Masaraat does not do

* *No diagnosis* – Masaraat cannot tell you whether you have a mental-health condition. Only a qualified professional can do that.
* *No treatment decisions on its own* – All medication, therapy, or lifestyle changes should be discussed with your clinician.
* *Not for emergencies* – If you feel unsafe, call your local emergency number or crisis line immediately.

### For clinicians

* *Population dashboard* – Identify non-responders early and audit outcomes effortlessly.
* *Decision-support hints* – Algorithmic suggestions align with NICE, APA, and JSMD guidelines, always leaving final choices in your hands.
* *Secure & compliant* – End-to-end encryption and region-specific data hosting.

### Safety & privacy

Masaraat is classified as a *class-1 medical device (self-assessment software)*. It collects no names, emails, or phone numbers; you control what’s shared. Your data are encrypted in transit and at rest.
