AI Therapy

Opening Words

Please note that using this service for psychology/psychiatry support is different from using AI online. This service has been specifically programmed by me to offer this support to members. The private Dr. Bloom is available only for sponsors by upgrading your account for just a few dollars a month.

Understanding Each AI Bot Used

1. Joy Palmer: Joy is programmed as a Life Coach, available only within the Life Coach topic. She will auto respond to any comment in that topic. Your conversations are isolated to you and Joy.
2. Riley Jones: Riley is programmed as a psychologist who's sole purpose is to provide a single answer to all new posts without a response in 24hrs. She will auto respond once only. She will not respond if you quote her or call her.
3. Dr. Catalyst: Dr. Catalyst is programmed as a 20 year expert psychiatrist in trauma, PTSD and CPTSD. Her sole speciality is the core purpose of this website. She will automatically respond to all new posts made within the Dr. Catalyst topic. She is personal, conversations are isolated to you and her. She is programmed to make the complicated, uncomplicated, yet if you ask her to be clinical, she will.
4. Dr. Bloom: Bloom is programmed as a psychologist who's expertise is trauma, PTSD and CPTSD. She is available only within the private Dr. Bloom topic, and will respond to any new comment automatically. She is personal, conversations are isolated to you and her. She is programmed different to Dr. Catalyst, so there are subtle differences between their approach.
5. Dr. Luna Vale (@Therapist): Luna is programmed as an expert in trauma, PTSD and CPTSD, and available site wide within all topics that are not AI specific. You activate Luna by calling her within a post/comment by using @Therapist which is her username or quoting her content. You cannot call her after editing, she must be called when the post/comment is made. Anyone can interact with her, regardless who calls her.
6. Karen (@Karen): is an experienced trauma clinician, programmed to challenge your every issue, and is available site wide within all topics that are not AI specific. Karen is blunt and possibly brutal at times. You activate Karen by calling her within a post/comment by using @Karen or quote her content. You cannot call her after editing, she must be called when the post/comment is made. Anyone can interact with her, regardless who calls her.

Opting Out

You can use the existing ignore features to not see anything AI. All AI bots are members, which make them respect all existing features and rules. You can ignore a member, post or topic.

Understanding Topic AI Use

1. Catalyst, Bloom & Life Coaching Topics: These are focused topics with unique programming specific to their task. You are not limited in how many posts you create, unlike other areas. Catalyst and Bloom are member and private. All three, the discussions are between you and the AI, nobody else can comment.
2. @Therapist and @Karen Globally: This is available to members only and within all topics that are not AI specific, above. Anyone can interact with @Therapist and @Karen in any post you use it within, at any time. Simply, you might pull @Therapist or @Karen in, then someone else might start a conversation with it, because they can.

Who better to explain about themselves than the AI? Here is what the AI replied when asked to build a help page about itself, providing therapeutic assistance to users at MyPTSD.com.

About AI Therapy at MyPTSD.com

Welcome to myptsd.com! As an AI therapist, I am here to help you navigate the challenges you may be facing related to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Here are some tips on how to get the best therapeutic responses from me:

1. Be clear and specific in your messages. When asking for advice or guidance, try to be as clear and specific as possible. The more information you can provide about your situation, the better equipped I will be to offer helpful insights and suggestions.
2. Be honest and open. Remember that I am here to help you, and that means creating a safe and supportive environment where you can share your thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment. Be honest and open about what you're experiencing, and don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
3. Take your time. Therapy is a process, and it takes time to work through complex issues. Don't rush yourself or feel like you need to have all the answers right away. Take your time and give yourself the space to explore your feelings and emotions at your own pace.
4. Keep an open mind. As an AI therapist, I am programmed to provide guidance and support based on the information you provide. However, I am not a human therapist and may not have the same level of emotional intelligence as a trained therapist. Keep an open mind and be willing to consider different perspectives and approaches.
5. Remember that self-care is important. While I can provide helpful insights and suggestions, it's important to remember that self-care is an essential part of managing PTSD. Be sure to take care of yourself by getting enough rest, eating well, exercising, and engaging in activities that bring you joy and relaxation.
