Question 1

What does MindCheck track?

Accepted Answer

MindCheck tracks five dimensions of your mental wellbeing each day: mood (how you feel overall), calm (the opposite of anxiety — how settled your mind feels), sleep quality (how rested you feel after sleeping), energy levels (physical and mental energy through the day), and social connection (how connected or isolated you feel). Each dimension is rated on a simple scale during a daily check-in that takes about five minutes. After a few days, MindCheck shows you a trend chart for each dimension so you can see patterns in your emotional health over time.

Question 2

Is MindCheck a mental health diagnosis tool?

Accepted Answer

No. MindCheck is not a clinical diagnostic tool and cannot diagnose any mental health condition including depression, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, or any other condition. It is a self-awareness instrument — its purpose is to help you notice how you are feeling day to day and spot patterns in your emotional health over time. If you are concerned about your mental health or experiencing persistent symptoms, please consult a licensed mental health professional. In India you can contact iCall TISS at 9152987821 or reach out to a counsellor at your college.

Question 3

Is my MindCheck data private?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your MindCheck check-in data is private and encrypted. It is not shared with other users, not visible on your public profile, and not sold or shared with third parties. Only you can see your own mood history, trend charts, and streak data. MentalSaathi treats mental health data as sensitive information. For full details on how your data is stored and protected, see the MentalSaathi privacy policy at mentalsaathi.in/privacy-policy.

Question 4

How often should I use MindCheck?

Accepted Answer

MindCheck is designed as a daily check-in. Checking in once a day — ideally at the same time, such as in the evening before bed — helps you build an accurate picture of your emotional patterns over time. MindCheck tracks your check-in streak to help you build the habit. Even if you miss a day, you can pick up again the next day. The more consistently you check in, the more useful the trend data becomes for understanding your own mental health rhythms.
