LLMs have more knowledge than you'll ever have, while being somewhat worse at reasoning. A friend of mine suffers from severe depression and after trying 5 medications, decades of therapy with different therapists, LLMs are the only thing that give him the feeling of being listened to. Funnily enough, he had therapists berating him in a quiet similar tone as evident in your post, while only getting empathetic and level-headed responses from chatGPT, which have helped him tremendously since.
