Many strategies to handle mental problems such as using technology. Digital therapy in mental health services has recently become increasingly prominent, related to efforts to reach more people who are in need but do not have access to more practical breakthroughs. Digital therapy is considered a more practical breakthrough because anyone who needs it can access it. On the other hand, mental health issues are not very familiar in the community. Stigma and judgment are still high in people with mental health disorders or people who do not understand whether they have experienced mental health problems, what are the signs, what to do when experiencing mental health disorders, and what are the impacts if left unchecked.
