PsycheSense Application

Overview

PsycheSense leverages cutting-edge technology to analyze social media posts, detecting early signs of mental health issues and providing valuable insights. By harnessing the power of LlamaIndex for semantic analysis, the application can understand and interpret complex patterns and behaviors in online interactions. It seamlessly integrates with various social media platforms' APIs to collect real-time data, ensuring comprehensive and up-to-date monitoring.

The core functionality revolves around sophisticated natural language processing algorithms that assess the emotional and psychological state reflected in users' posts. By doing so, it identifies potential indicators of mental health challenges, such as depression, anxiety, or suicidal tendencies. The insights generated from this analysis are designed to support individuals by offering timely recommendations and resources, helping them seek appropriate help and interventions.

Moreover, the application maintains a user-centric approach by implementing privacy-preserving techniques to ensure that personal data is protected while still delivering meaningful and actionable information. This tool not only aids individuals in their mental health journey but also provides healthcare professionals with data-driven insights to enhance their diagnostic and treatment processes.

In summary, this application stands as a comprehensive solution for mental health monitoring and support, utilizing advanced AI and semantic analysis to bridge the gap between social media activity and mental health awareness.

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/mental-health-app.git
   cd mental-health-app

2. Install Python dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Set up environment variables:

   Create a .env file in the root directory and add your API keys:

   TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY=your_consumer_key
   TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET=your_consumer_secret
   TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_access_token

5. Initialize a new Next.js project:

   npx create-next-app frontend
   cd frontend

6. Create API endpoints in Next.js:

   Add the following files:

   • pages/api/fetch_data.js

   import fetch from 'node-fetch';
   
   export default async function handler(req, res) {
       const data = [
           { content: "I am feeling very stressed and anxious lately." },

           // Add more posts as needed
       ];
       res.status(200).json(data);
   }

   • pages/api/analyze_mental_health.js

   import { preprocess_data, generate_embeddings, analyze_mental_health } from '../../path_to_your_scripts';
   
   export default async function handler(req, res) {
       const data = req.body;
       const preprocessed_data = preprocess_data(data);
       const index = generate_embeddings(preprocessed_data);
       const analysis_results = analyze_mental_health(index, "signs of mental health issues");

Deployment

1. Deploy the Backend:

   You can use any cloud provider like AWS, Google Cloud, or Azure. For simplicity, here's an example using AWS Elastic Beanstalk:

   eb init -p python-3.8 mental-health-app
   eb create mental-health-app-env

2. Deploy the Frontend with Vercel:

   vercel deploy

Usage

1. Start the backend server:

   python app.py

2. Navigate to your Vercel deployment URL to use the frontend interface.
