Why SerenityMate was created — Mexico context

The idea emerged from a common gap in Mexico: after discharge from a rehab center, many people lose daily structure and ongoing support. Clinics and therapists highlighted three issues: (1) limited follow-up between sessions, (2) relapses triggered by stress, environment, or lack of an immediate support network, and (3) fragmented tools (reminders, notes, chats) that don’t build habits.

SerenityMate proposes a simple, privacy-first post-rehab companion for Mexico:

• Daily recovery plans (routines, goals, micro-habits)

• Quick mood/craving check-ins with risk alerts

• Gentle reminders for meds/therapy

• One-tap SOS to trusted contacts

• Spanish psychoeducation tailored to local context

The prototype is being validated with clinics and recovery communities in 🇲🇽 to ensure real utility and respectful, non-stigmatizing language.

Feedback welcome:

1. What time of day is most critical to stay on track?

2. What signal would help someone ask for support early?

3. What should appear first in the app: plans, SOS, or check-ins?
