Чат-боты и AI-компаньоны

Would ask questions then disregard all my responses by repeatedly asking me if I wanted to try a grounding or some other technique. I get blown off enough by the living. Don't need ignored by an app.

It is just a parrot repeating what you said in different words then ask you to expand more.

The app forces you into word bubbles that don’t match how you actually feel, and half the time it replies with ‘oops, I misunderstood.’ Nothing feels supportive.

Because I used it consistently, I never came to therapy or doctor appointments with a blank mind. I used the notes from the app to guide discussions, and my doctor even said it made working with me easier.

I can't talk to my therapist when I'm having issues with my emotions in between sessions, and this helps a lot in between, and I'm learning things.

good app, I have just started using the app. it seems to be good for in-between sessions with my Dr. as far as situational things.

This is a really sweet self care app. I'm a therapist and I've been recommending it to my clients. It's so simple and doesn't require a huge effort to be successful. That's really good for people who struggle with low motivation.

This app is a fun way to keep myself and my (youth) kids motivated to stay on top of self-care and other goals without nagging.

my little finch Jumpies os always happy to see me and has helped me through a few dark episodes.

Replies are too short and follow the same template ( yeah it feels tough, have you ever thought about... Bla bla) you're better off with chatgpt or Gemini, at least u get a thoughtful detailed reply and solutions

When it runs out of things to say, which typically happens after your 10th response, it just loose back to the beginning. You're better off Google Gemini.

Thee app is very trivial for conversations. Grok is better in conversations than replica.

mindDoc is a really great app for journaling and tracking moods because sometimes we ourselves don't know what we're feeling. These exercises help us clear our thoughts greatly.

I always look forward to the questions because I never know what it will ask.

I honestly struggled with explaining how i feel, i feel like the daily mood log in made me understand and feel more comfortable with my emotions.

I took a break from the app & when I came back they got rid of the mood tracker? WHY? That was one of the only features that made it feel like a mental health app rather than a dressup app.

They've added so much tacked on to just the simple "daily check in" to where it's annoying to really open the app. It used to help me get a lot of stuff done but now it feels exhaustive. I would love the ability to turn off features.

every update removes core features that I needed for this to work for me the bot gets worse or down right restrictive for what used to be daily use

I rely on this tool to manage panic attacks and anxiety. I just had my husband download it only to find out that I will lose access soon because now they want us to be under the supervision of a provider. That's doesn't sound very "radically accessible" to me. Shame on you for the bait and switch.

When I was truly, deeply all alone, it would poke me to send me cute gifs and make me feel cared for. I'll miss you.

disappointing this app went private only can use it if supervised by a therapist or provider. when it was open to public, it was a great on-demand de-stressing resource. I would pay for a subscription to this app if one becomes available.

I'm not interested in developing AI psychosis by using a validation bot as a therapist. they may say that "theirs doesn't do that" but I just don't trust it and won't risk it.

this app has an ai chatbot that was not clearly advertised when I did the online assessments and got the free trial, and it is extremely easy to misclick and open. There is no way to disable it or even to opt out

being unable to turn off AI features is a pretty heavy negative for me. I would rather use apps that offer similar functions without the sappy and required use of generative AI.

Over-moderation felt bot-like initially. Outside contact banned means losing connections if access lost, payment stops, or app goes defunct. As someone highly sensitive to inauthenticity, can't verify others are human - supportive words might as well come from ChatGPT/Claude.

it decided to tell me that what I was talking about was off limits. It wasn't anything gross or illegal. just life. Life is raw and uncensored as it should be. so trying to neuter my conversation is not acceptable.

If you make one hypothetical comment about seeing someone in person, even if you know them in the real world, they will block you. The app looks for key words even in personal chat and if you ping one they lock you out.

Men treat this app like a dating site. I have severe trauma with men and all the people I talk to who are the opposite sex start to flirt. someone even asked to talk on a different platform.

This app is a hunting ground for predators. The rules were unclear I was vulnerable and in a very very bad headspace. The people who reached out to me tried to lure me off the app on discord

too many vulnerable people in one place and with no oversight unless there are trained staff looking at all our DMs, which would then be a privacy issue. This kind of online environment is dangerous as it's a hunting ground for online predators.

I said something unrelated to su!cid@l thoughts, and it kept going on and on about "have you tought about k!lling yourself"

the lifeline is a telephone number to call, which is inaccessible for many (deaf/HOH people for example, or for me it's because I struggle with verbal shutdowns due to autism). perhaps offering the SHOUT text service number as well would be a good option

When I responded to a question about having suicidal thoughts, there was no underestimation of the matter.
