I agree with jarosia. Fortunately I am using it as a general log for my sleeping habits, mood etc. On my Symbian phone I had Nokia Wellness Diary, which is the best app for such things I have ever found. Optimism is the only one that does a similar thing, as far as I have found.
Im no psychologist but i do know abit about rational emotive behavior therapy, and its probably not a good thing to imply ownership of the person acting depressed.
I think this could be a good idea if the app didnt reinforce that "you are depressed, lets track how depressed you are"
