Is ChatGPT Making Your OCD & Anxiety Worse? (+When Ai Becomes Compulsive)

 Is ChatGPT making your OCD and anxiety worse? This is the big question that we are going to be covering in today's episode of the Anxiously Capable Podcast. If you have OCD, you might find yourself turning to chat GPT to get reassurance or to check if a thought is 'normal' or to even ask it questions like; Did I do something horrible in this situation? At first it might seem that the AI chat bots response brings you comfort, but over time, constantly going to chat GPT when you feel self-doubt, or when you're trying to make decisions, can quickly become a harmful compulsive behaviour. Whether you notice that you're using Ai compulsively or want to prevent this becoming a compulsion and making your OCD worse, this episode is for you.In this episode, I break down: ✔️ Why ChatGPT and other Ai LLM feel so irresistible to someone with OCD and Anxiety. ✔️ All of the ways someone can use ChatGPT compulsively and what this might look like for different OCD subtypes. ✔️ The dangers of using ChatGPT when you struggle with OCD or obsessive thoughts.✔️ How to stop the compulsive behaviour (and no, it's not as simple as deleting your ChatGPT account). Follow Anxiously Capable for more calming episodes on anxiety, OCD, overthinking, and healing.Lets Connect!
