Inspiration

Mental health issues have always been a taboo topic for all walks of life. People have refused to admit or identify their problems and tend to bottle them up, which often leads to self-isolation. Inspired by the We're Not Really Strangers card game, a movement that encourage humans to interact with each other beyond the surface level and encourages one to speak out and share their most genuine feelings. Combined with the 16 Personalities that aids to help us understand ourselves based on our MBTI personalities. We were inspired to create a platform where people who struggled to share about their mental health issues and find therapy inconvenient can go to, that aims to give them a listening ear in dark times and find people similar to them and let them know that they are not alone.

What it does

This application intends to solve this self-isolation issue by countering the lack of acknowledgment of one's feelings as well as encouraging them to share their mental health issue with people who may face or have already overcome similar situations. By doing so, may enable them to talk to someone who understands them, and hopefully create a meaningful bond or friendship where both parties can rely upon and support each other emotionally.

How we built it

Backend coded with Java, frontend coded with JavaFX, and built with Eclipse IDE.

What's next for You Are Not Alone

To have a multi-application platform such as mobile apps, websites etc. , to make it even more convenient for users to go to at tough times.
