Abstract:

Human emotions, psychology, and social well-being are all parts of mental health. It has an impact on how people feel, think, and act. It aids in figuring out how individuals act under pressure, interact with each other, and arrive at decisions. Every period of life, from childhood and adolescence to maturity, is vital for mental health. There are several elements that affect mental health issues, such as experiences with trauma or abuse in life, work-life stress, relationship difficulties, etc. Help is available for many of the mental health issues that are identified within a person. The proposed solution is implementing a friendly chatbot that is capable of capturing human emotional states (happy, angry, sad, etc.) and mental health states (depression, anxiety, stress, etc.) using human computer interaction and health record management. The proposed solution has been developed by considering both regular users and mental health practitioners. The user can communicate with the proposed assistant using text or voice to identify their emotions and mental health based on keywords, particular characteristics of voice and facial recognition used during the conversation. Once the mental health and emotion statuses are analyzed the electronic health records will be readily available on the blockchain as blockchain tokens, this could be shared with the practitioners securely.

I. Introduction & Literature Review

In today's society, mental health chatbots are not a novel concept. It is a general element to seek help from a chatbot rather than a counselor or therapist. Depression, bipolar affective disorder, schizophrenia and other psychoses, dementia, intellectual disabilities, and developmental diseases such as autism are among the mental disorders listed by the WHO. These disorders are distinguished by aberrant thoughts, perceptions, emotions, and behavioral patterns. Mental health, just as much as physical health is an important factor in one’s wellbeing. Some would even argue that the mental health aspect of an individual should be given even more attention than their physical health, as it is not a visible ailment to one, but one that could be brewing internally over time. The emotional and mental health of an individual plays a major role in affecting their decisions, their everyday activities, and their general wellbeing [1]. The demand for trustworthy and precise diagnosis has led to the development of a new generation of healthcare technology known as the Medical Chatbot.
