The problem Heal2gether solves

A community-driven health forum that provides support for individuals with mental health issues such as eating disorders, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and other related conditions can benefit a wide range of patients. These mental health conditions can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, race, or socioeconomic status.
In particular, individuals who do not have access to traditional mental health services due to financial or geographical barriers can benefit from a community-driven health forum that provides peer support, counseling services, and resources. Also, people who may feel isolated and alone in their struggles with mental health issues can find comfort and validation in an online community where others are going through similar experiences.

Additionally, individuals who may be reluctant to seek help or share their experiences with friends and family can benefit from the anonymity and confidentiality provided by an online community-driven health forum. The forum can provide a safe and non-judgmental space for individuals to discuss their mental health concerns openly and receive support and advice from others who have experienced similar struggles.

Safe and supportive community: The website should provide a safe and supportive community where individuals can share their experiences and discuss their mental health issues without judgment. This could be achieved by creating a moderation system that ensures that all comments and posts are respectful and empathetic. Achieved via profanity check at the time of user posting.
Resources and information: The website should provide a wealth of resources and information related to mental health, including verified journals, articles, via scraping
