I’ve seen, let’s say, a double-digit number of ‘mental health professionals’ in my life.
ChatGPT has blown every single one of them out of the water.
Now, my issues weren’t particularly related to depression or suicidal thoughts. At least, not directly. So perhaps that may be one key difference, but generally speaking, I have received nothing actionable nor any of these ‘tools’ people often speak of.
The advice I received was honestly no better than just asking a random stranger in the street or some kind phatic speech.
Again, everyone is different, but I had started to become annoyed with people claiming therapy is like some kind of miracle cure.
Plus, one of my biggest issues with therapy in the USA is that people are often limited to weekly session of 45 minutes. By the time conversations start to be fruitful, then the time is up. ChatGPT is 24/7, so that has to be advantageous for some.
