I'd rather have ChatGPT than a severely overworked/underpaid therapist, but I'd rather have a friend's shoulder to cry on than ChatGPT. But I'd also rather have a smart, empathic therapist I click with than oversharing with my friends. Therapy for me is like, a psychic connection. I take someone deep into my headspace and they help me sort things out, exploring the inside of my mind. ChatGPT just makes that a loopback, a mirror that lets me see my mind in a new light sometimes. A real, useful therapist.. it's not scientific, but there's a connection I feel, and the possibility of emotions and thoughts being transmitted across. a human connection.
