It's almost like having someone interested in your mental health (even if only to track it) is good for it?

You could be on to something. I mean, how many people might normally rarely get the question "How are you doing?"

		Keep tracking and reporting to someone you trust! It can really help to know others are invested in you, whether random internet strangers encouraging you or people in your life you trust.

This effect occurs even in non-mental health related studies.
