Outline

This paper proposes MIND (Multi-agent INner Dialogue), a multi-agent inner dialogue system based on a large-scale language model (LLM), as a novel solution to mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, which are worsening in today's competitive society. To overcome the limitations of existing counseling and chatbots, which provide generic responses lacking emotional depth, we leverage LLM's powerful generative and role-playing capabilities to build an interactive inner dialogue environment with users. LLM agents are assigned different roles to interact with users and provide an immersive healing experience. Through human experiments in a real-world healing environment, we demonstrate that MIND offers a more user-friendly experience than existing methods. This demonstrates the potential of LLM to be effectively utilized in mental health treatment.
