Anonymous Mode (No Data Stored)

[Ritikavarshney-hub]

Many users engaging with a mental health assistant prefer complete anonymity during their interaction. Currently, TalkHeal stores journal entries, mood logs, and chat history locally in st.session_state or files for enhanced user experience. However, there is no option to opt out of data storage.

This feature will allow users to toggle into "Anonymous Mode" to ensure no journaling, mood, or chat history is saved during their session — promoting privacy, trust, and inclusivity for sensitive use cases.
