TITLE Mental Health Detection Using NLP from Journal Entries
ABSTRACT This paper presents Mental Health Detection using NLP from Journal Entries, a web-based system designed for real-time emotion and mental health analysis. The platform processes user- provided journal text and voice inputs through voice-to-text transcription and applies Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for analysis. The system follows a rule-based approach that combines keyword detection and basic text processing to identify emotional patterns. It classifies various emotional states and detects key mental health indicators such as stress, anxiety, and depression. The system also integrates user authentication and secure data handling to ensure privacy and reliability. The processed results are presented through an interactive interface, allowing users to understand their emotional state effectively. The system demonstrates efficient performance in analyzing textual data and identifying emotional trends with consistent accuracy based on predefined rules. This approach makes the system lightweight, fast, and easy to implement without requiring complex machine learning models. The proposed system can be used as a supportive tool for mental health awareness, enabling early identification of emotional changes and encouraging timely intervention. However, it is intended only as an assistive system and not as a replacement for professional medical diagnosis.
