Interventions/Control_1

Complete the psychoeducation component within 2 weeks of consent. For the intervention group, behavior activation, assertion training, and problem-solving therapy are performed for 6 weeks on the smartphone using the "My heart care regitre!" App.The secretariat sends a message (constant text) of encouragement to advance the smartphone application by email every week until the 8th week. Only information about the number of times the app is used and how long it is used is recorded on the server using Google analytics (not the personal details on the sheet in the app). If there are inquiries about usage, we will respond by e-mail or telephone as appropriate.

Interventions/Control_2

Complete the psychoeducation component within 2 weeks of consent. No action is taken until the 8th week. We will provide the same "behavior activation + assertion training + problem solving therapy" application as the intervention group to those who responded to the survey in the 8th week.
