Does anyone else use ChatGPT as a therapist?

I swear it might be more helpful than most of the actual therapists I've seen throughout my life, and I've seen A LOT.

I essentially told it to talk to me like a therapist and it's genuinely been so good for venting when I'm struggling with high emotions and replying with logical reasoning that I find really helpful.

And the best part is that it's not a real human so I don't feel guilty about off-loading my problems. There are times when I do need genuine human support, but during times where I don't this works great. It's like journalling but getting rational, somewhat supportive replies back.

Does anyone else use ChatGPT as a "therapist"? I would still definitely recommend seeing actual mental health professionals if possible, and not using it as a replacement for human connection. I also think it's probably only as helpful as it is because I'm generally in a good mental state already. But I do think it's a useful tool for the ongoing management of our disorder.
