LLMs are quite good at psychological questions. I've compared AI with tharapy professional responses and they matched 80%. It is is easier to open to it, be frank (so fear of regection or ridicule is no more). And most importantly some people don't have access to proper pool of therapists (as yet you need to "match" with the one who resonates with you) making LLMs a bliss. There is place for both human and LLM psyhelp.
I'm glad you carried through that period.
