Building an AI Mental Health Platform from Scratch (With $0 and a Dream)

[Lomanu4]

Hey DEV community,

I'm a student in Nigeria, and I’m currently building Sentimind — an open-source AI-powered mental health platform that provides emotional support, intelligent recommendations, and a safe space for users to express themselves.

The idea came from watching so many people around me struggle silently with their mental health — not because they wanted to, but because help was inaccessible, expensive, or stigmatized.

What I'm building:

Real-time mood detection via AI

Personalized guidance for mental wellness

Fully private, ethical architecture

A 24/7 always-on digital companion

Tech Stack: Python, React, TensorFlow (coming soon), Google Cloud (hopefully!)
Repo: [GitHub link here]
Contact: contactsentimind@gmail.com

I’m doing this with $0 funding, no team yet, and just pure commitment to the mission. If you're into ethical AI, wellness tech, or want to support a young founder building from scratch, let’s connect.

Looking for:

Feedback on the project

Mentorship

Collaborators (designers, developers, researchers)

Cloud credits or hosting help

Thanks for reading. Let's build something that truly helps people.
