Today, I have spent years and thousands of pounds going to a therapist who never made me feel better about myself, then I had a 30 minute conversation with Google Gemini and I’ve not felt this good in years. All that money wasted when I should have just stayed indoors talking to my computer. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my therapist gave me some great self-sufficiency advice. It sounded familiar. When I got home I realized she had been quoting Christina Aguilera songs. For £100 an hour. FML
Today, I decided to try an online therapy site, seeing as I have been feeling very lonely and don’t have any friends to talk to about my issues. After filling out all the initial forms, the site told me there was no one available to speak to me. FML
Today, I spent half-an-hour listening to my therapist telling me enthusiastically how people used to communicate telepathically before verbal languages were invented. FML
Today, I've been seeing a therapist after more than 20 years of struggles. I think I saw him cry during our sessions a few times. I guess that my inability to live my life at the fullest was hard earned. FML
Today, I had a vulnerable day, which led me to being scammed 2400 dollars, worried about something that a simple Google search and five seconds of reading would've rectified. FML
Today, I tried therapy to talk about my problems without feeling like i am harassing anyone. After messaging a therapist for over 2 hours, I felt way better and finally understood. It turned out I'm in such a bad mental state that I'm a danger to myself and others. Police were called by the therapist. FML
Today, my girlfriend left me, saying she'd started to appreciate herself more with the help of a therapist. That I paid for her to visit. FML
Today, my therapist told me that I need to do something different with my hair. Then I paid her. FML
Today, I finally spoke to a counsellor about my depression. As soon as the session started, I became so anxious that I could barely speak. Once the Zoom call was finished, I got the distinct impression that she thought I was mentally disabled. FML
Today, after I found a mental help app that I actually liked, it referred me to a doctor after only two days of using it. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

A therapist is trained to make you self-reflect and work on yourself. AI is only going to give you the "feel-goods" and will only make the problem worse. You have a lot of work to do on yourself.

AI isn't therapy. AI follows the parameters you provide it. So unless you ask it something stupid like "Is the Earth flat?", it'll tell you what you want to hear.

On another note.. if you are not in tune with your therapist, you *can* shop around, too. but Ai is not the answer.
