This is both upsetting and sad.

What's sad is that I spend about $200/month on professional therapy, which is on the low end. Not everyone has those resources. So I understand where they're coming from.

What's upsetting is that this user TRUSTED ChatGPT to follow through on the advice without critically challenging it.

Even more upsetting is this user admitted to their mistake. I guarantee you that there are thousands like OP who wasn't brave enough to admit it, and are probably to this day, still using ChatGPT as a support system.

Agreed. Sometimes I've used it to find words too.

Language models are extremely useful tools for some specific purposes - people just need to know how and when to use them, taking into account that they aren't intelligent at all
