I relate. I used to outsource my judgment to whatever seemed most convincing online, which meant I also picked up a lot of disempowering “truths.” What helped me:
Test in reality. Instead of debating which advice was right, I just tried things in small experiments. Reality gave better feedback than any forum.
Write before searching. I’d first note down what I already know or would try. Then compare outside input to that. It built trust in my own reasoning.
Now I treat all advice (AI included) as raw input, not truth. My “source” is a mix of experiments + cross-checking multiple perspectives. The key shift was asking: does this expand me, or shrink me? That filter alone cut out a lot of limiting beliefs.
