Topic: Could be blockchain usefull in suicide prevention? (Read 126 times)

Hello everyone,

Why am I even bringing up something like this? Few years ago, one of my best friends has most likely commited suicide (at least that is what the police said). It was after rough breakup. He gave us (the best friends) some signals of the possibility of doing so, but we did not even for a moment tought, he would do it. Since then, I tend to fall into depression from time to time. I do have all the support of my frineds, girlfriend and family so I am Ok. That is not what I want to talk about though.

Since those years ago, I also was thinking a lot about how to prevent those meaningless deaths. What can one do to help people in need? People in depressions, helplesness and overall bad mental state?

I have seen extremly successfull ICO called AidCoin. This is a humanitarian coin. It is a great project, bringing transparency of blockchain to the humanitarian actions, but it is still not what I have in mind. So I am playing with an idea of bringing anonymity of blockchain and the internet to the field of depressions and suicidal thoughts. What I can still not see is, how could this be put together...

This project should not aim towards earning milions for individuals, the main focus should be to help the ones, who need the help but are overlooked or misundertood in most cases. Every year, more than 1M people commit suicide. And in most cases, it could have been prevented.

So here I am, asking you if you have any ideas? Also my options are limited, but I would like to do something as I know how difficult those situations might be.
