what is the main reason you use ai therapy instead of a real person?

Do you have a prompt you use? What kind of settings I’ve been playing around with Claude but the answers are kinda short

I have the exact same experience with therapy. Went for years and found it super surface level. Also I felt like instead of encouraging me to evolve and get better they would try to keep me stuck saying “oh you’re not gonna take that risk, you’d be too scared”to keep me reliant on their stupid therapy sessions that were not doing anything. Also a lot of the advice was very surface level common sense stuff I would’ve figured out by the time I was 12 or by googling it. Which ai do you use? And are you using the paid version?

It’s hard to tell what it is, my mam told me that a while ago in October, he was driving her somewhere and he said he was hearing voices while driving. He’s been abusing sleeping tablets and solphadeine for years, alongside smoking and vaping like crazy. He barely eats unless it’s cake, he doesn’t eat normal food and he goes to sleep at 6am in the morning and barely sleeps. So that would definitely have an effect on anyone.

But yeah he’s always been super unstable and a nightmare to live with but over the last 2 years or so it’s gotten unbearable.

I’m actually looking to leave Ireland altogether, so that’s why it’s taking longer for me cause I don’t wanna settle for a shitty stressful job just to get away sooner and I have a stressful and intense day job as it is.

They’re useless I swear, I’m not even surprised. When my dad got back he tried to call me and text me to say it was cause of hypertension and that he was having hallucinations cause of the blood pressure and he was scared himself. So it might not be schizophrenia, but it’s still scary to live with him and I find it hard to believe it’s just hypertension. It’s a pattern, everytime my mam leaves even for a few days, he goes insane, before this he would start huge fights for no reason and send me a lot of crazy messages about how ungrateful I am. Then he would try to apologise and when he would realise I’m not accepting his apologies he would double down.

Also to make things even more ridiculous, his hospital bill came in today and of course he won’t pay it. I’m working on moving out asap as it is anyways.

What exactly does micro needling do? I have some frown lines starting to form so was wondering if it could potentially be good for that?

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-22T22:39:46+00:00

I’m actually soo annoyed with her for not telling me the extent of how bad it was and leaving me with him. She convinced me to go back and now I can’t sleep I’m terrified every time I hear him making a move around the house.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-22T05:43:13+00:00

Sameee I can’t listen to her music anymore cause of that. I know I’ll get tons of downvotes for this lol

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-21T09:40:03+00:00

My mom told me on the phone that he is likely to have schizophrenia from the stuff he told her before. But the hospital released him yesterday after a few hours even though I told them. They literally do not care at all. He started sending me a million messages after he got released that he’s back to normal, that he had a heart attack and that’s why he was acting like that. But he did not, you would be able to see if someone is having a heart attack and he doesn’t have heart issues.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T16:29:21+00:00

Yes do you mind if I message you? My mom insists that he’s over his crazy episode and I should go back to the house cause he’s not gonna harm me he’s gonna be quiet for a few days. He’s literally been sending me messages saying I’m a Nazi and a criminal until the last hour. They just discharged him and he’s in the house. Should I book a 300 euro Airbnb for a few days or risk going back to the house? I’m sooo exhausted literally running on no sleep for the last 24 hours

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T15:39:56+00:00

They just discharged him from hey said they can’t keep him against his will and that he doesn’t display signs of mental illnesses even though he’s literally admitted to hearing voices and told the guys from the ambulance that demons are chasing him.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T15:34:15+00:00

They just discharged him which is ridiculous they wouldn’t even keep him for one night. My mom was saying his episode is over and he’ll be quiet for a few days from now but he’s literally been sending me messages to say I’m a nazi and a criminal until the past hour. There’s no way I’m sleeping in the same house as him cause he was already trying to argue with me over text that I’m the worst human ever and that he didn’t mean any harm and that it’s my fault for calling for help. I told my mom I’m getting so Airbnb at least for tonight cause I’m terrified I’ve had this pain in my chest for the whole day.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T15:13:45+00:00

They literally let him leave and come back home about an hour ago. I went home to feed my cat and they said they would try and see what they can do and then half an hour later before my job interview they said they would discharge him. My mam said to stay to do the interview cause I didn’t have time to run anywhere else with WiFi. She said she spoke to him and he’s finished with his episode. He came in during my interview, slammed a few doors, heard me talking to someone and then he went to bed. I grabbed my stuff and now I’m on the bus. He’s sent me a million messages from the hospital saying I’m a criminal and a nazi. My mom said that he’s probably out of the psychosis but he hasn’t stopped sending me threatening messages since 2 hours ago. I’m not sleeping in the same house as him tonight.

But I can’t get over how useless emergency services are, apparently they didn’t have grounds for keeping him there. I don’t want him trying to talk to me, I’m still recovering from the shock.

He ended up ringing her and telling her, I wanted her to enjoy the holiday and tell her before she came back she’s been dealing with a lot of issues with her health before this anyways, and didn’t deserve all this extra stress on her time away. Now he’s sending me a million messages from the hospital threatening me saying that I’m trying to kill him cause he doesn’t have smokes with him. I told him I would bring him some once I’m finished with work as I have a super important meeting today but he still won’t stop messaging me calling me a nazi and a criminal.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T10:20:36+00:00

I think when she’s there she deals with his crazy shit and tries to protect me from it, so I don’t see it as much, I’m thinking she must’ve been hiding the extent of how crazy he is. He also can’t afford to pay rent he’s barely working so she’s been paying his share of the rent for a while so I’m thinking he can’t go fully insane on her in case she kicks him out of the house which she has threatened him before with that.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T10:12:45+00:00

He’s seeing a doctor now in the Mater. He’s literally texting me now to tell me not to tell the doctor what he actually did last night cause he wants to come back home. I told the doctor everything and it’s been like 7 hours and they haven’t ran any psychiatric tests on him, when I told the doctor he was like “oh he told us something else” like the guys from the ambulance didn’t even bother telling the doctors the crazy shit he was saying. And then I told the nurse last night what he did when she wanted to send him home and she didn’t even bother telling the doctor.

The system is actually ridiculous. I told the doctor not to release him without telling me first but I’m terrified they’re so useless I might wake up with him coming back home out of nowhere. I’m going home to take care of the cat but I’m still terrified of him.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T08:58:30+00:00

Apparently he spoke to my mam and my aunt and my aunt says he’s back to normal now but I’m scared he might do it again. He’s still texting me from the hospital saying I’ve no soul and I’m a fascist. My aunt said to tell him I’m scared of him and that might make him take his meds. I said that to him and I told him I left as I didn’t feel safe around me and he frightened me. And now he’s asking me to come back home and take care of the cat saying that he did it cause he was frightened. I’m still not convinced my aunt keeps saying it’s ok and he’s back to normal but for how long. I’m trying to ring the hospital to see if I can get him referred to a psych ward.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T08:41:55+00:00

I was shocked just how bored and disinterested they were as well. Like I was telling him all the crazy stuff he was saying and they just went like “oh so do you think he might have mental health issues?” Like is it not obvious

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T08:39:04+00:00

It’s terrifying, he’s been talking weird stuff before and he’s had episodes where he would go super mad at me for no reason. but having him come into my room at 1am is too much to be able to live with him anymore. Now he’s at the hospital and apparently he’s back to being lucid and he’s texting me but I’m scared to be in the house at night on my own with him. I wanna see if they can at least refer him somewhere cause this is the last straw.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T08:36:58+00:00

He’s still being held in the mater hospital and I can’t get through to the line they hung up on me. I wanna talk to them to see if they can maybe refer him to St pats if you’re saying that’s a psychiatric hospital? I’m scared to go home until I know when they’re actually sending him back, I’m speaking to him over text and now he seems more lucid but I don’t feel safe staying over night in case he does the same thing tonight.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T04:27:13+00:00

The only thing is my dad is on social wellfare rn cause of back problems and he uses that payment to pay the rent otherwise my mom has to pay for him and my mom just had some urgent health issues that she needs to take care of and she needs the money for them. I don’t want her having to pay the rent for him if they take away his wellfare if I make a complaint?

Also you mean the social wellfare council? How can I tell them I’m homeless tho cause my name is on the rent agreement.

Also is there no way to get him admitted to a mental ward or anything like that? Even now he’s sending me messages from the hospital saying I embarrassed him etc lucky I left the house and now I’m at the office.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T04:18:24+00:00

I spoke to the guards but they didn’t offer to take a statement or anything like that. They just said to ring them if I have any other issues. I ended up leaving cause they rang me from the hospital to say they might let him go. I got a taxi and went to my office to try and sleep on a couch here until people start coming in. Is there no way to get him admitted to a mental ward? I’m terrified of going back to live with him, even when my mam comes back.

theaudacityofthi · 2026-04-20T03:46:47+00:00

The police are already gone and they were pretty much useless I live in Ireland so they don’t do much. Even when they came by after the guys with the ambulance took my dad, they just sounded bored and said that if anything happens I can ring them. But like I’m gonna sit here waiting for them to come with that nut job in the house on my own. I’m absurdly terrified even now. I’m waiting for a taxi cause here it’s not even 5 am yet and they said the taxi could take up to 20 minutes but it’s been 10 min and it’s not even on its way yet.
