🧠 Inspiration
Mental health issues among teenagers are often overlooked due to stigma, lack of awareness, and limited access to professional help. Many students experience stress from academics, social pressure, and uncertainty about the future, yet hesitate to seek help. We were inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3 (Good Health & Well-being), which emphasizes mental health as a critical part of overall well-being. We wanted to create a solution that is accessible, private, and supportive, especially for young people who may not feel comfortable talking to others. 🎯 What We Built MindMate is a chatbot-based web/mobile application designed to: Provide emotional support through conversation Track daily mood patterns Suggest coping strategies like breathing exercises and journaling Offer resources when serious help is needed ⚙️ How We Built It 🏗️ Tech Stack Frontend: React (for interactive UI) Backend: Python (Flask) Database: Firebase (for storing mood logs) APIs: Basic NLP processing for chatbot responses 🧩 System Flow User inputs message Message is processed using keyword-based NLP System classifies emotional state Appropriate response or suggestion is generated
