Joy (Mental Health Bot)
A bot designed to help you go through moments of depression and anxiety. You can converse with Joy through text messages and let out how you feel; it will listen and recommend what you can do at the moment to feel better.
To train the bot, I went through hundreds of posts on the r/depression r/anxiety, and r/adhd subreddit. I also went through some work to see common responses to help ease the situation in a similar situation. I then used Google's Dialogflow to train an agent to respond to situations using "states" and "entities." I hooked the agent to our Express backend, and also assisted in connecting the React frontend and Express backend smoothly.
