Since 2023 ive used ChatGPT for reassurance about my anxiety and OCD I have bad health anxiety and ocd and I have been asking ChatGPT about every worry I get whether it be about ilness or thinking I’m having a stroke or heart attack and worrying about my palpitations ChatGPT does help me when I have a panic attack and I think I’m dying but I always go to it every time I’m anxious before ChatGPT came out I used google but I never use google when I’m stressed I go straight to ChatGPT I really want to stop but the problem is what do I do when I have a panic attack about my heart or something and think I’m dying I still ask reassurance from real people like my parents but I think ChatGPT is a real hurdle for me and my mental health the only positive I’m seeing is it helps me during a panic attack when I ask reassurance it helps me but then I continue asking questions over and over and taking screenshots that I save to read for later but never actually end up looking at them it’s becoming a problem I’m also realizing ai is terrible not just for mental health

You are not alone here.

There's nothing wrong with using it.

It's just about not becoming fixated or dependent.

Nothing replaces true human connection 💕💜
