I can see how Chat GPT can be helpful for journal prompts and basic coping strategies. It’s definitely not a place for nutrition advice though. I’ve seen people on social media say they use it for that purpose (with and without EDs) and I think that’s a dangerous road to trek.
It isn’t a dietitian and you can’t trust a computer to tell you how to eat, especially in recovery from an ED. It is getting its information from online sources, which are rife with diet culture, so that alone makes it really dangerous.
Love this! I agree with all of it. I’ve appreciated ChatGPT for certain things, but as you said, it’s important to ask the right questions, and to have a certain amount of self-trust to know what information might be harmful. And knowing is not processing, and can trivialize your experience.
love this insight! I've definitely been using chatGPT in my current relapse to gain access to immediate support when other avenues may not be available like my mum or my therapist! I think being intentional and insightful with it is key.

I agree. Not helpful for nutritional advice which is likely created from a whole mix of diet culture restrictive information!

Thanks so much Jen for your feedback. Really appreciate it.
