Features

Users create a comfort box with embedded videos, images, and quotes of their favorite things or activities that cheer them up or calm them during times of duress or need. They can also add a list of people they can call in their contacts list, along with a list of hotlines readily available on the page. This is inspired by an actual therapeutic comfort box that people make in real life to reduce self-harm, anxiety, and depressive moods.

Quotes can change on a varying basis on the front page and if users want to share how they feel, they can anonymously write a note in the Vent Cloud, where their message will appear publicly for up to 60 seconds before fading away – hopefully along with their worries!

Additional Features to Add

-Panic Button -Prettying up the popup alerts -Activities, such as 'going to the library' or 'running' can lead to various locations that are suggested, perhaps using the Google Maps API -Breathing exercises and calming noises can be found on the app
