The problem MentalUp solves

The Anonymous Mental Health Buddy System addresses mental health challenges by providing a secure, anonymous platform for people to connect with others experiencing similar issues. It combats social isolation by offering peer support, allowing users to share their struggles with others who truly understand. Leveraging MPC ensures user privacy, keeping mental health data confidential throughout the process. The chat feature fosters open, judgment-free conversations, creating a safe environment for users to express themselves. The system also helps reduce stigma by normalizing mental health discussions, making it easier for individuals to seek help. Additionally, it promotes accessibility by offering a free, easy-to-use platform that doesn't require professional intervention. This project empowers individuals to find emotional support, build connections, and take the first step toward better mental well-being.

Challenges I ran into

While trying out mpc-framework, I struggled in writing circuits, specifically giving arguments to the main function. Later I fixed it with making a form kind of structure which helps in maintaing the data integrity. Also, I built a chat App with a normal web scoket where parties can chat after they are matched.
