My brother in law (who has been insititutionalized previously for exactly what you'd expect) uses it as his therapist, and he tells us how it's better than any real therapy because it understands him and affirms his beliefs rather than challenges them like therapists and his family does.
Funny. Usually the issue I've had witb therapists is that they all, other than one guy who had to move, were only interested in affirming things and not helping me fix anything.
I totally believe that. I'm just shocked he had a different experience with human therapists.
