A poster presented preliminary investigations into the issue of pervasive computing and mental health. Research has been carried out on the use of computers to diagnose and provide aid to patients suffering from mental illness, however the use of pervasive computing has received very little attention. Mental health problems can be defined as disorders within the mind that effect the normal life of an individual and can range from depression to extreme conditions such psychosis where an individual can be devoid of reality. One in four people suffer from a mental health problem within a year, severe mental health problems are, however more rare.
