The editors of ADDitude magazine want to hear from you!

This survey aims to learn about ADDitude readers’ use of and experience with various treatment strategies, including two that we describe this way:
  • Mental health apps that offer online and phone counseling services, but no diagnosis or prescription services (like BetterHelp or Headspace)
  • Telehealth services that offer online diagnosis and/or prescription services exclusively, with or without counseling, from clinicians other than your primary care provider (like Cerebral or BrightSide)
At the end of this survey, you will have the opportunity to download an ADDitude eBook, with our thanks.

Please note that no personal or individual data from this survey will ever be reported; we will share your aggregated responses with the ADDitude community and may quote comments in the magazine and online, but we will not use full-name attributions without explicit permission. ADDitude never shares any information about its subscribers, e-newsletter recipients, or survey respondents. (Read our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.)
