Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to determine whether access to a mental health app improves resilience and reduces depressive symptoms among medical students over a three-month period.

Compared to the control group, researchers hypothesized that medical students in the intervention group are expected to show:

* Significant reductions in depressive symptoms and greater improvements in resilience after three months of usage.
* Significant reduction in thoughts of self-harm and anxiety, and improvement in self-esteem after three months of usage.

Researchers will compare two groups to evaluate the app's impact on wellbeing:

* Intervention group: Receives immediate full access to the mental health app.
* Control group: Receives basic, without full access to the mental health app.

Participants will explore and experience the various features offered in the mental health app over a three-month period.
