it’s also not safe to use for therapy. chat gpt doesn’t know anything, it’s basically just repeating language to you. it’s trained to hold a conversation, not to give you actual healthy advice. u could lead yourself down the wrong path by listening to it
Please don’t use chat gpt as a therapist. It seems like a good solution but it literally takes ur personal conversations and could possibly use them to feed other ppls requests.

chat gpt doesn't have a deep enough understanding of human life to be able to diagnose anybody either. The info that shit has is just whatever it was fed from either books or online sources, like it could over exaggerate symptoms so easily and "misdiagnose" u

Op here: I’ve gotten lucky w my therapist. It’s was sometimes so hard to help my old friends to advocate for themselves in therapy. I’d be like “please switch therapist” ect. Sadly a lot of ppl use these things for either validation or ignorance (in the lighthearted definition). And sadly some ppl just don’t actually put in the effort.

i think there’s a way to use it mindfully and to take the stuff with a grain of salt but the parts of it that just have to do with more objective information can be really helpful and i think it’s actually quite accurate depending on what you’re asking

i honestly think ppl are being way to impatient with ai like imo chat GPT isn't capable of even giving cohesive answers yet, like if u ask it something itll just word vomit whatever info it was on one keyword from ur question, essentially the same shit google does. Cause let's be so fr, chat gpt is heavily restricted from what it can and cant say to users and if the "ai" was really to a standard where it could give u real answers, the developers wouldn't be using user data so heavily to train it

I def think that he was in a bad mental position to be using that app. And it was really sad when I found out about it. My problem is that ppl were blaming the platform but when u look into the app it already said “everything said in these chats are fictional” and it advertises itself as a role playing app. Obviously apps like these aren’t good for ppl in bad mental places.
