The other day someone told me that their partner used ChatGPT instead of going to therapy.
We’re all so cooked.
The point of contention regarding therapy for me is that I’m literally paying for an impersonal conversation in which I express my deepest insecurities to someone who most likely doesn’t give a shit.
I don’t see how AI fixes that but I also don’t understand why it can’t help if your relationship with your therapist is supposed to be a fundamentally clinical one.
If find that it's helpful being able to talk to someone that you can't disappoint. Otherwise I will always lie to make them feel better about how I'm doing
I’ve had therapists with whom that exact scenario has happened, I’ve literally lied to them about how I’m doing.
