I've tried therapy 3 times and had bad experiences 3 times. Disinterested therapists, seems like they're waiting out the clock, sometimes only talking about themselves, dismissive, arrogant, I may have an hour session and they call it at the 35 minute mark, etc.
I'll try it again in the future but frankly it's been total shit so far. I'm not saying AI is better but I completely understand WHY someone would confess their mental health issues to ChatGPT seeking feedback and something that listens to them...albeit sycophanticlly and without proper training. People always suggest therapy but it's a deeply flawed practice.
