[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Better than nothing?

https://www.forbes.com/health/mind/ai-therapy/[/quote]

I have not used any of the services in the article but I actually did try to set up an AI bot using ChatGPT who would give me validation and cheerleading as a form of "therapy" (I know that's not what therapy is, but I didn't expect AI to be able to provide actual therapy so validation/cheerleading seemed like an achievable goal). I actually got the idea from this forum.

It didn't really work but I actually think the act of trying to train the AI to give me what I needed was a useful exercise. I wound up getting real therapy within a couple months of starting with the ChatGPT fake therapy.

I think when you are really struggling, almost anything that feels like momentum is progress. Just the act of trying to get better, even in weird and not effective ways, is a sign that some part of you *wants* to get better, and revealing that to yourself is useful when you are feeling hopeless.[/quote]
