I’m currently developing a multi-turn chatbot aimed at helping users manage anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges. I’m seeking datasets related to mental health support conversations to train the chatbot. So far, I have found two datasets: ESConv and AUGESC.
However, these kinds of datasets seem to be quite rare. Could anyone recommend similar mental health conversation datasets or point me to other resources? I’d greatly appreciate any help or suggestions!
@Thanh2172002 only from my personal point of view, particularly in this case, I feel the ethical/developmental (in the software sense) concerns regarding building such a chat bot is just as, if not more of an important consideration we need to be mindful of rather than just being able to find a dataset alone.
Congratulations for your idea. It seems very interesting… and very challenging from an ethical point of view, unless you remain “limited” (so to say) to the research and academic world.
Do you plan to work only in English, or maybe in other languages as well?
