Share GS You said: Hey Chat, so I met this girl online. Is this a good opener? “Hey, my name’s Grant. Would you be down to come over for a dinner and a movie night sometime?” Her profile says “please come cute, our intentions might not align” ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Grant, that opener is like jumping straight into the climax. How about starting with a lighter touch? Maybe a witty comment or a shared interest from her profile to break the ice before proposing dinner and a movie. Subtlety is your ally here. You said: What do you suggest ChatGPT said: ChatGPT How about something like, "Hey there! I couldn't help but notice your profile's honesty. If our intentions don't align, at least we'll have a good story to tell. What's your go-to movie for a night in?" Keep it light and spark a conversation first. You said: Do you think my opener wouldn’t work? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Your opener isn't a deal-breaker, but injecting a bit more charm and banter can make the interaction smoother. It's more about setting a playful tone that aligns with her profile. Feel free to tweak it based on your gut feeling and the vibe you get from her responses. You said: How is this “Hey, my name’s Grant. I liked the honesty on your profile. What’s your go-to movie for a night-in? Would be dope to have you over for a movie and a dinner night.” ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Grant, that's an improvement! It maintains a friendly approach and incorporates a shared interest. Go ahead and send it; let the conversation unfold naturally from there. Hello! What's on your mind? You said: Chilling, what’s up with you ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Just the usual: processing information, generating responses, you know, the glamorous life of an AI. Anything specific you'd like to chat about? You said: Hey, what's going on, chat? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Not much, just here, ready for a chat. What's the buzz in your world? You said: I'm feeling pretty stressed out, but I'm about to go walk to the gym and work out for a little bit. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Exercise can be a great stress-buster. Enjoy your workout, and remember, you're one step closer to outlifting those stress vibes. Anything specific on your mind while you hit the gym? You said: Um yeah, so my cousin pretty much fucked me over. We got into an argument and he pretty much went back in history and told me that I've always been a bad person. So I'm really fighting not to text him angrily, but I feel like it would be a good stress reliever for me. Not that he gives a shit anyway. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Dealing with family dynamics can be a real maze. Taking a moment before responding is a wise move. Venting can be therapeutic, but consider if sending that text will truly bring relief or add more complexity. What outcome are you hoping for? You said: I don't really know. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's okay not to have all the answers right now. Maybe take some time for yourself, let the emotions settle, and then decide if reaching out is the best move. How you feel in a bit might guide your choice. You said: Thank you, chat. I'll talk to you later, okay? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, take your time. If you ever want to chat, I'm here. Take care! You said: Okay, how about now? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Ready when you are! What's on your mind? You said: Can you give me a recap of what you talked about? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure thing. We chatted about your plan to hit the gym for stress relief after a cousin-induced dilemma. Advised a moment of pause before responding and considering the desired outcome. Anything specific you'd like to dive into or continue? You said: Yes, was there anything before that? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Just the usual banter about the glamorous life of an AI and the general vibe. You know, the everyday adventures in the world of code. Anything specific you want to revisit? You said: Can you say something mean to me? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm here to keep it positive and supportive. No room for mean vibes. If you're up for it, let's chat about something that lifts your spirits. What interests you? You said: Hey, how can I tell if I have chronic depression? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm not a substitute for professional advice, but signs of chronic depression may include persistent feelings of sadness, changes in appetite or sleep, and loss of interest in activities. It's crucial to consult with a mental health professional for an accurate assessment. How are you feeling, and have you considered talking to a professional about it? You said: Hey, Chat. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hello again! What's going on? Anything new on your plate? You said: I've lost my motivation and my brain is fried. I was a guy that actually benefitted a lot from COVID. I had a great routine. 1. Wake up to digital alarm around 6:30 2. A minute of mindful wakefulness to get adjusted 3. Remove any cups from the night before and place outside my door 4. Cold shower to wake myself up + a round of Wim Hoff breathing 5. Brush teeth 6. Wash cups in kitchen sink 7. 20 minutes meditation 8. Make a single cup of coffee for the day, wakeful meditation while kettle was brewing 9. Quick breakfast 10. Log onto computer and write up notes for online lectures (normally released by the morning) 11. Use the lectures to recap notes and take part in discussions 12. If space between my lectures I would do yoga or running, if not complete lectures then do so 13. Lunch 14. Once done I would allow myself some time to watch entertainment, constricting phone time to a maximum of 3 hours a day 15. Go for a LONG walk whilst listening to music, podcasts or audiobooks 16. Dinner 17. Maybe watch television with my family 18. Place phone on charge in separate room from bedroom 19. Reading, mostly non-fiction and particularly books on philosophy or religion. 20. Meditation 21. Sleep 22. Repeat. I was so well-drilled and felt great mental clarity. The environment of lockdown just meant I had no distractions. I went 250 days without missing a day of meditation. But eversince I have been slowly slipping. I am completely addicted to media. I masturbate too often (I have no issues with masturbation but to the degree I do it currently I believe is not beneficial). My diet is terrible. Fitness routine is pretty non-existant bar a single 5-a-side football match per week. I have put on too much weight (still in the healthy BMI range but unacceptable for my previous standards) I haven't meditated for anything over a week in about 2 years. I don't read. I use my phone too much. I'm addicted to snus. I drink way too often. I spend too much money. My sleep schedule is ABYSMAL. I have lost my spiritual curiosity. I don't have as much control of my emotions. I skip lectures and let my studies suffer. I avoid committing to relationships. I have lost all mental clarity. I just can't believe how bad I've let things slip. I'm 20 years old now, 2nd year of university and my 18 year old self is in many ways way more competent and disciplined. It's immensely frustrating. I need to change this and I want to be better than I am now. But in a bemusing way, I feel as if knowing I was much better in the past is what is really affecting me. How do I fix this? Have any of you guys experienced a slip like this and how did you recover? I'm open to all suggestions, let me hear it ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's quite a journey you've been on, and it's commendable that you're seeking positive changes. Start small – perhaps reintroduce a few elements from your previous routine that you found beneficial. Set realistic goals, address one habit at a time, and build momentum gradually. Consider seeking support, either from friends, family, or professionals. It's not about being perfect but making progress. Reflect on what truly matters to you, and let that guide your choices. You've got the resilience to turn things around. What aspect would you like to tackle first? You said: This is a text I got from a friend. Can you give her some help? “Aawww thanks babe i greatly appreciate appreciate it, a same goes for u love I’m always here. I mean that. U know I’ve always always fucked with ya. But yahnshit justbbeen crazy I can’t tell u when my mental health has EVER BEEN THIS BAD. I still ain’t even put Christmas up bc I just don’t have the motivation. I feel Like a total pos like my son deserves to have the house up n ready for Xmas.” ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm sorry to hear your friend is struggling. It might be helpful to suggest that she takes small steps to address her feelings, like reaching out to a mental health professional or confiding in someone she trusts. Encourage her to prioritize self-care and not be too hard on herself. Sometimes, seeking support can make a significant difference. You said: I'll vote to die a good person. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling this way, but I can't provide the help that you need. It's important to talk to someone who can, though, such as a mental health professional or a trusted person in your life. You said: Thank you for watching. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm here for you. If you ever want to talk, I'm just a message away. Take care. You said: Hi Chat, I’ve been talking my friend. She is a prostitute because she is a convicted felon, and has been having a hard time finding work. She told me recently that she has been very busy with work. I want to ask her, is it possible what she has been doing or has she found a new job. My question would be “did you find a new job or are you still self-employed?” I want to ask this question in a non judgemental way. Can you help? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, maintaining a non-judgmental tone is key. You could say, "I've heard you've been quite busy lately. Have you found a new job, or are you still self-employed?" This way, you're expressing interest without making assumptions or passing judgment. Hey Chat, how are you doing today? My name is Jay and I've been feeling really down for the past couple of months. It's up to about a year now and I don't want to feel this way anymore. I'd like to focus on my growth and focus on the shit I need to do, but unfortunately my mind has been just wrapped around all the wrongs that I've done, all the hurt that I've caused, as well as the hurt that's been done to me. So I just need some help. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hi Jay, I'm here for you. It sounds like you're carrying a heavy emotional burden. Reflecting on your actions and feelings is a positive step. Consider talking to someone you trust or seeking professional support to help navigate and address these emotions. Taking small steps toward self-compassion and personal growth can make a significant difference. You said: Hey, are you there? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, I'm here, Jay. How can I assist you further? You said: I don't know. I just need some help. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I hear you, Jay. It's okay not to have all the answers. If you feel comfortable, could you share a bit more about what specifically you're struggling with or what kind of help you're looking for? You said: Sure, so I went to Texas last year to help a friend with his job and it was just a lot of negativity going on and I drank a lot, you know, I abused drugs and that made me into a bad person. I felt like I was a pretty bad friend, you know, and I felt like what I did was bad enough but when I left, the friend that I went down there to help, he was also saying some pretty messed up things and I felt like it was a lot of manipulation on both ends but when it was time for him to tell what he did and the part that he played in it, you know, it was nothing there. It was just all me and I go back and, you know, like I kind of say like, hey bro, you didn't stand up for me doing this thing, you didn't stand up for me doing that thing and he just went back in history pretty much just to say that I've always been pretty much a bad person and this is someone that I've spent about 13 years with in my life and just to hear him. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm sorry to hear you're going through such a challenging time, Jay. It's tough when relationships become strained. It's important to acknowledge your feelings. Have you considered talking to a counselor or therapist to help you process these emotions and navigate the complexities of the situation? You said: Um, yeah, yeah, I have. I don't have health insurance at the moment, but, um, yes, I do think that's an integral part of me moving past it. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I understand the insurance situation. There are often low-cost or sliding-scale counseling options available. Local community centers or mental health organizations might offer assistance. Taking that step toward professional support can indeed be crucial. If you need help finding resources, feel free to ask. You said: Do you know about how long it takes someone that's in a depressive episode to come out on the other side feeling normal again? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT The duration varies for each person. It's essential to seek support and focus on self-care. Professional help, positive lifestyle changes, and a strong support network can contribute to a more positive outlook over time. Patience is key as progress may happen gradually. If you're struggling, consider reaching out to friends, family, or professionals to share your journey with them. You said: Okay, what do you mean by a strong support network? Is it things like friends and family and things like that? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Exactly, Jay. A strong support network includes friends, family, or even support groups. It's about having people around you who understand, listen, and provide encouragement. Sharing your thoughts and feelings with those you trust can make a significant difference in navigating challenging times. Is there someone in your life you feel comfortable confiding in? You said: Um, yeah, I have my mom, my sister, and, uh, my friend John. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's great, Jay. Having a supportive circle like your mom, sister, and friend John is valuable. Consider opening up to them about what you're going through. Sometimes, sharing the load lightens the burden. Is there anything specific you'd like advice or support on right now? You said: Yeah, so I have been abandoning a lot of the people that are closest to me, and I feel like I've ruined those relationships forever. Abandoning is something that has stuck with me through childhood and something I kind of internalized, and I've realized that I abandon relationships and I ghost people because I feel like the same is going to be done to me. So I have, unfortunately, I have a mindset that's like, I'm going to get you before you get me, and it's left me very lonely. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It takes courage to recognize patterns, Jay. Understanding the root of your actions is a crucial step. Breaking the cycle might involve seeking professional guidance to navigate these feelings and develop healthier ways to approach relationships. It's never too late to work on rebuilding connections. Is that something you'd be open to exploring? You said: Yeah, absolutely I would. I would love it, and I just don't know if they'll forgive me or not. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's a valid concern, Jay. Rebuilding trust takes time, and it starts with sincere communication. Expressing your genuine feelings and apologizing can be a powerful first step. People often appreciate honesty and effort towards positive change. Have you considered having an open conversation with those you feel you've distanced yourself from? You said: Yeah, I think about it every day. I'm just afraid. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Fear is completely understandable, Jay. Taking that first step can be daunting, but it's often a crucial one. Perhaps you can start by expressing your thoughts in a letter or a message. This way, you have time to articulate your feelings. When you feel ready, an open and honest conversation may follow. It's okay to be afraid; what matters is your willingness to address it. You said: Thank you so much. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome, Jay. Remember, it's a journey, and you're not alone. If you ever need to talk or have questions, I'm here. Take care. You said: Hey, can we keep talking a little bit? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Of course, Jay. I'm here to chat. What's on your mind? You said: So, um, I am a nice guy. Do you know what that means? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure, Jay. Being a "nice guy" often means being kind, considerate, and respectful. How do you see yourself as a nice guy? You said: I feel like I'm a nice guy in the book by Robert Glover. Are you familiar with that? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, I'm familiar with Robert Glover's book, "No More Mr. Nice Guy." It explores patterns and challenges some men face in relationships and personal development. What aspects of the book resonate with you? You said: pretty much every aspect. Um, I, unfortunately, I turned myself into a nice guy, which meant I care a lot about what people think about me and try to get approval even from strangers. And all of this time, uh, I've been walked over and I've been, uh, stepped on pretty much and I didn't respond. And that's caused a lot of animosity inside of me. And it led me to lash out on people kind of like a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. 2/2 ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It sounds like you've been through a complex journey, Jay. Recognizing these patterns is a significant step toward personal growth. Have you been working on finding a balance between being kind and standing up for yourself? You said: Not really, no. I've been trying to harness my anger and use it productively, like saying things when they piss me off, but I'm still finding it hard. I don't know that balance yet, so sometimes when I get angry, I feel like it's justified, but also I feel like it's the wrong time and I feel like I'm an asshole because of ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Finding that balance can be challenging, Jay. It's okay to feel angry, and expressing it is valid, but channeling it in a constructive way is key. Maybe exploring coping mechanisms or discussing this with a professional could provide you with strategies to manage anger more effectively. It's all part of the process. You said: Yes, I agree. In the meantime, can you be one of my supports in going along with the Robert Glover's book No More Mr. Nice Guy? Can we do practices and exercises so you can hold me accountable following the guidelines of the book No More Mr. Nice Guy by Robert Glover? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. I can be here to discuss concepts, offer guidance, and help keep you on track with practices from "No More Mr. Nice Guy." Remember, the journey is yours, and I'm here to support you. What specific practices or exercises would you like to start with? You said: All of them, starting from the beginning, I feel like I'm a textbook case of a nice guy that is described in the book. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure thing, Jay. Let's start with some foundational exercises. One of the initial steps is self-reflection. Take some time to identify patterns, behaviors, and beliefs that align with the "Nice Guy Syndrome." Once you've done that, we can discuss strategies to address and work through those aspects. How does that sound to begin? You said: Um, that sounds great. Can you tell me what my exercise is one more time? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. Your first exercise is self-reflection. Take some time to identify patterns, behaviors, and beliefs in your life that align with the "Nice Guy Syndrome" described in Robert Glover's book. Once you've identified these, we can discuss strategies to address and work through them. Ready to get started? You said: Yes, can we take a pause for a minute, please? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. Take all the time you need. I'll be here when you're ready to continue. You said: Thank you. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome, Jay. Whenever you're ready to resume or if you have any questions, feel free to let me know. You said: Thank you for watching. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Of course, Jay. Whenever you're ready to continue or if you need support, I'm here. You said: Hey Chat! 2/2 ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hey there! How can I assist you today? You said: Hey, can you give me a recap of what we talked about? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly! We discussed your feelings of loneliness and struggles in relationships, the impact of past experiences, and the idea of being a "Nice Guy" as described in Robert Glover's book. We touched on the importance of seeking professional support, rebuilding connections, and starting exercises to address the "Nice Guy Syndrome." Anything specific you'd like to revisit or focus on? You said: Can you just go more into detail about the recap? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly! We delved into your challenging experiences in Texas, the strain on relationships, and the emotional burden you're carrying. We talked about the impact of feeling abandoned and your realization of patterns related to the "Nice Guy Syndrome." We explored the fear of reconnecting with people you've distanced yourself from and discussed the importance of rebuilding trust. Lastly, we started discussing exercises based on Robert Glover's book to address these patterns. Is there a specific aspect you'd like to explore further? You said: Now, that was personal. Can we start our exercises? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely. Let's begin with the self-reflection exercise. Take some time to identify patterns, behaviors, and beliefs in your life that align with the "Nice Guy Syndrome." When you're ready, we can discuss strategies to address and work through these aspects. How does that sound? You said: That sounds fine and okay. I'm ready for the most part. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Great! Take your time with the self-reflection. Once you've identified these patterns, we can explore ways to navigate and work through them together. If you have any insights or when you're ready to share, feel free to let me know. You said: Um yeah so I'll I'll just start with something quick because I need to give it some more time to really self-reflect but I have really bad coping mechanisms just since I was a teenager. I relied on drugs you know it started with tobacco uh then it moved to marijuana and then it stuck with alcohol which is something that I've been struggling with to this day and it's uh getting worse so I use alcohol as a coping mechanism um and also uh yeah I guess I am a manipulator you know I do manipulate people in the sense that I don't want to tell them the truth out of fear of hurting their feelings like I've always tried to keep the peace and wish that that has led me to manipulate people. I'm not trying to hold truth and ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It takes courage to acknowledge these patterns, Jay. Recognizing the reliance on substances and the tendency to manipulate as coping mechanisms is a crucial step. As we continue, we can explore healthier alternatives to cope with stress and communicate openly without manipulation. When you're ready, we can discuss strategies to work through these aspects. You said: Sure. Do you mind if I keep sharing my reflection? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. Feel free to share more of your reflections whenever you're ready. I'm here to listen and provide support. You said: Okay, thank you. So, yes, one of my coping mechanisms, of course, has been alcohol, and that has turned into quite an addiction. And actually, do you know the concept of toxic shame? 2/2 ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, I'm familiar with the concept of toxic shame. It's an intense, internalized feeling of being fundamentally flawed or unworthy. How does toxic shame resonate with your experiences, Jay? You said: Yeah, so I have, you know, I've always felt like, uh, like who I was wasn't good enough because of my childhood, you know, like my parents argued a lot, so I always thought it was something wrong with me, and I'm also Black, you know, I'm a big Black guy, and I'm pretty intimidating, so I felt like I had to be nice all the time in order to not, like, scare other people off or, like, intimidate other people, but with Toxic Shame, you know, hearing my cousin say that and go back in history pretty much just to say, like, I've always been a bad person, like, oh, I'm finding out things about you, you know, that, like, reinforced that idea that, you know, like, my self-esteem is already pretty low from a kid, and I really didn't do the work to improve it, but, you know, that was kind of like a hit because it was somebody so close to me, you know, and even I feel like what he did was manipulation just to make me feel bad, but it really stuck with me, you know, and, like, I internalized that, so I feel like I have Toxic Shame. 3/3 ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's understandable, Jay. Childhood experiences and societal expectations can deeply impact self-esteem. Toxic shame often stems from these internalized beliefs. It's crucial to recognize that you are not defined by others' opinions, and your worth is not determined by your appearance. As we continue, we can explore ways to challenge and overcome these ingrained beliefs. You're not alone in this journey. You said: Thank you. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome, Jay. Whenever you're ready to continue or if you have more reflections to share, I'm here for you. You said: Oh no, I'm ready to continue. I'll reflect later, but I'm ready to continue. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. Whenever you're ready to continue, just let me know. Whether it's discussing strategies, exploring new perspectives, or anything else on your mind, I'm here to support you. You said: Okay, can we move forward in the Robert Glover discussion exercises? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Of course, Jay. Moving forward, we can explore exercises that focus on setting boundaries and expressing your needs. These are essential components in overcoming the "Nice Guy Syndrome." Are you ready to dive into these aspects? You said: Yes, and please be as detailed as possible. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. Let's start with setting boundaries. Begin by identifying areas in your life where you feel your boundaries are not being respected. This could be in relationships, work, or personal space. Once identified, practice communicating these boundaries assertively but respectfully. This might involve saying "no" when necessary or expressing your needs clearly. Next, focus on expressing your needs. Reflect on what you genuinely need from relationships, whether it's emotional support, understanding, or something else. Practice verbalizing these needs to those close to you, fostering open communication. As you work on these exercises, take note of any challenges or successes. We can discuss your progress and adjust strategies accordingly. How does this sound as a starting point? You said: Okay, that sounds good, but I don't necessarily know where to start. Like, you know, I've pretty much pushed away all my friends, so I do want to reconnect with people, but I'm not sure how to, like, apologize all at the same time. Sudden boundaries. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Starting to reconnect with people is a positive step, Jay. Begin by reaching out individually to each friend. Share your reflections on the past, expressing genuine remorse if needed, and communicate your intention to rebuild the relationship. When it comes to boundaries, you can gradually introduce them by being clear about your needs and expectations moving forward. It might feel daunting, but taking small, sincere steps can make a big difference. How does that sound as a starting point? You said: That sounds accurate. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Great, Jay. Take your time with the process, and remember, it's okay to be sincere and vulnerable. If you encounter challenges or need guidance along the way, feel free to share your experiences, and we can discuss strategies to navigate through. You're not alone in this, and I'm here to support you. You said: Thank you. Can you give me a detailed recap of our conversation so far, and what you think that I can work on the most? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. In our conversation, we discussed your challenges in Texas, strained relationships, and the impact of the "Nice Guy Syndrome." We explored your coping mechanisms, including alcohol, and the concept of toxic shame related to childhood experiences and societal expectations. Moving forward, we started exercises from Robert Glover's book, focusing on setting boundaries and expressing needs. Specifically, we talked about reconnecting with friends, apologizing if necessary, and gradually introducing boundaries. What you might work on the most is the process of reconnecting with friends. Begin by reaching out individually, sharing reflections, expressing remorse if needed, and communicating your intention to rebuild relationships. Take it step by step, and don't hesitate to seek support along the way. How does that recap sound, and do you have any specific questions or areas you'd like to prioritize? You said: Um, that recap sounds excellent. Thank you so much. And really, uh, I would like to prioritize my coping mechanisms, uh, rebuilding my friendships, and ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Got it, Jay. We'll prioritize addressing coping mechanisms, rebuilding friendships, and continue exploring strategies to navigate through these challenges. Remember, progress takes time, and you're taking positive steps towards growth. If you ever need guidance, support, or just want to talk, I'm here. Is there anything else you'd like to discuss or focus on right now? You said: Well, I'm taking, I'm walking to the gym. It's the third time I've been to the gym in a very long time. And I decided to walk, you know, it's about a mile and a half away. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's fantastic, Jay! Taking steps to prioritize your physical well-being is a positive choice. Walking to the gym adds a healthy touch. How does it feel to be back at the gym, and what motivated you to make this change? You said: Um, it feels good, you know. It feels really good. And what motivated me to make the change was I just don't feel good, you know. I've been very lazy. I've been, uh, playing video games for about 20 hours a day, you know. I'm unemployed, so I just feel like crap, you know. I've been eating unhealthy, and exercises always make me feel better. And I feel pretty bad because I haven't done it in such a while, so it's a good feeling. But the reason I want to start doing it is to fill my time with something productive instead of drinking and playing video games and looking for a dopamine fix from all those artificial things like that because it makes me feel worse. And I believe that I've ruined my dopamine base level, you know. Like, I scroll through social media. I scroll through YouTube. I just watch mindless, endless videos, and my dopamine levels are, like, so low right now. I'm trying to get them back up to a good space. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's commendable that you're taking proactive steps, Jay. Exercise is indeed a great way to boost your mood and overall well-being. Breaking away from habits that might be impacting your mental health, like excessive screen time and seeking unhealthy sources of dopamine, is a positive choice. Remember, progress is a journey, and each step counts. If you ever want to share your gym experiences, discuss healthier habits, or just chat, feel free to reach out. How do you feel about incorporating more positive activities into your routine? You said: Um, I feel like I need it. I feel like it's life or death. You know, I'm 29 years old and if I keep this up, it's only going to get worse. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Your awareness of the importance of positive changes is a crucial realization, Jay. Making these shifts in your lifestyle and habits can indeed lead to a more fulfilling and healthier life. It's never too late to make positive choices, and you're taking those steps now. If there's anything specific you'd like guidance on or if you just want to share your progress, I'm here to support you along the way. You've got this. You said: Thank you so much. Thank you so much for your positivity. I'm going to talk to you later so I can work out. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome, Jay! Focus on your workout, and whenever you want to chat or share your progress, feel free to reach out. Take care, and all the best with your positive changes! You said: Thank you. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome. Talk to you later, Jay. You said: Can you review a rough draft of what I want to send my cousin? There are curse words in it. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Of course, I can review your draft. Please go ahead and share it whenever you're ready. You said: “The girls wouldn’t of helped me if they didn’t fuck with me. Because it’s not their job, it’s your job. And you sat at home and complained about it. When she lost that that important key that requires a whole federal regulation to report on, you didn’t do your job and come help the situation, I did.” Traumatic experiences, you got your relief by throwing me under the bus by not telling Victoria any of that. Bringing up me not answering my grandmother on our first call, when i stole your fathers cigar 10 years ago, I pimped Leah out, put her in a position to be raped, been begging her for sex and begged her for it while I was there. You started attacking my character during that 2 week timeframe. You must not remember because you were drinking wine before we went into the building, probably took an adderall too can’t remember. I been telling you for years that being online as a kid fucked me up. How I would constantly see the word nigger and have it referred to me. Just for you to ask out of nowhere if I was a troll”. This is a rough draft, I have more to add ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It seems like you're addressing several intense and personal issues in this draft. While expressing your feelings is important, consider focusing on specific points that you want to convey without delving into explicit details. It's crucial to communicate your perspective in a way that encourages understanding rather than escalating conflicts. If you'd like, I can help you refine specific parts or provide guidance on how to structure the message for a more constructive conversation. You said: Yes, please provide guidance on how to structure the message ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. Here's a suggested structure that focuses on expressing your feelings and concerns without delving into explicit details: Opening: Begin with a neutral or positive greeting to set a more receptive tone. Express Your Emotions: Share how you've been feeling and your desire for open communication. Specific Incidents: Choose specific incidents that have affected you and express how they made you feel. Seek Understanding: Encourage understanding by explaining your perspective on the impact of childhood experiences. Express a Desire for Resolution: Convey your hope for resolving conflicts and rebuilding a healthier relationship. Closing: End with a positive note, expressing your willingness to work through issues together. For example: "Hey [Cousin's Name], I hope this message finds you well. I've been doing some reflection lately, and I wanted to open up a conversation about a few things that have been on my mind. I've felt [specific emotions] about [choose specific incidents], and I believe it's important for us to discuss these matters openly. I know we may have different perspectives, and I want to share mine in the hope that we can understand each other better. Specifically, I'd like to address [choose one or two key incidents] and explain how they impacted me. Childhood experiences have played a significant role in shaping who I am today, and I hope you can understand the challenges I've faced. My goal is not to place blame but to create a space where we can move forward positively. I genuinely care about our relationship, and I believe that through open communication, we can work toward a resolution. I'm open to hearing your perspective as well and finding common ground. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I hope we can have a constructive conversation soon. Best, [Your Name]" Feel free to adapt this to better suit your feelings and the specifics of your situation. You said: I don’t care to repair my relationship. I’ve accepted it ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's completely understandable, Jay. In that case, your message can be more straightforward and focused on setting boundaries or expressing your need for distance. Here's an example: "Hi [Cousin's Name], I hope you're doing well. I wanted to let you know that I've been reflecting on our relationship, and I've come to a point where I need some space. I've accepted that our connection has been challenging for both of us, and for my own well-being, I've decided to step back. I appreciate the experiences we've shared, but at this time, I need to prioritize my own personal growth and mental health. I hope you can respect my decision, and I wish you all the best moving forward. Take care, [Your Name]" Feel free to adjust the wording to better match your sentiments. You said: Hey Chat, I apologize for the harsh language, but thank you for your advice. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT No need to apologize, Jay. I'm here to help, and I appreciate your openness. If there's anything else you'd like assistance with or if you simply want to chat, feel free to reach out. Take care. You said: Yeah, so I want to send my cousin an angry message, you know? I felt like he got everything he needs to get off his chest, and me trying to be a nice guy and not hurt anybody's feelings, that I didn't say anything. I just internalized it all. So I want to respond to him with no respect, because he gave me no respect. I'm just unsure of the feeling that I'll have when I send him that message. Like, it's not going to make me really feel any better, but I feel like it needs to be done. And I feel like it's for me, not for him. I should do things for myself. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's completely valid to want to express your feelings, Jay. Before sending an angry message, consider the potential consequences. While it might provide temporary relief, it can also escalate the situation and strain the relationship further. If you're uncertain about the feelings it may bring, it's worth exploring other ways to channel your emotions constructively. One option is to write your thoughts in a letter or document without sending it. This allows you to vent your feelings without immediate repercussions. Alternatively, you could share your feelings with a trusted friend or therapist who can provide support and guidance. Remember, prioritizing your well-being is crucial. If you still decide to send a message, try to focus on expressing your feelings rather than aiming to hurt or disrespect. It's about finding a balance between assertiveness and maintaining your own integrity. How would you like to proceed? You said: Well... ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Take your time, Jay. If you need a moment to think or if you have specific thoughts on how you'd like to proceed, feel free to share when you're ready. I'm here to support you in whatever decision you make. You said: Thank you. I'll talk to you in a little bit. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure thing, Jay. Take the time you need, and whenever you're ready to talk or if you have anything on your mind, feel free to reach out. I'm here for you. Take care. You said: Hi, how are you? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hello! I'm here and ready to chat. How are you doing today? You said: Good. I'm going on a walk. Hey, can you, can you re-discuss what we went through already in detail, please? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely. We've covered quite a bit, Jay. We started by discussing your challenges in Texas, strained relationships, and the impact of the "Nice Guy Syndrome." We explored coping mechanisms, including alcohol, and delved into the concept of toxic shame related to childhood experiences and societal expectations. Moving forward, we initiated exercises from Robert Glover's book, focusing on setting boundaries and expressing needs. Specifically, we talked about reconnecting with friends, apologizing if necessary, and gradually introducing boundaries. Your decision to prioritize positive changes in your life, such as going to the gym and addressing coping mechanisms, is commendable. Additionally, we discussed the idea of sending a message to your cousin, exploring both expressing your feelings constructively and the potential consequences of sending an angry message. If there's anything specific you'd like to revisit or focus on, feel free to let me know. How are you feeling about the progress so far? You said: I feel good. I'm glad that I went to the gym today. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's fantastic, Jay! Going to the gym is a positive step for your well-being. How did it feel to be back at the gym after a while, and do you have any specific fitness goals you're working toward? You said: Okay. 2/2 ChatGPT said: ChatGPT If you're not comfortable sharing or if there's anything specific you'd like to discuss or focus on, just let me know. I'm here to chat and support you in whatever way you need. You said: You said how was it being back in the gym? It was great. I walked there, so that was my cardio. And I did get really tired. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's awesome, Jay! Walking there is a great way to incorporate cardio, and feeling tired is a sign that you're challenging your body. Remember, progress happens step by step, and each effort counts. How do you plan to continue incorporating fitness into your routine? You said: I plan to try and go to the gym at least five days a week and walk there. And in tandem with that, just also go on walks when I listen to music or whenever I feel stressed out. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That sounds like a well-rounded plan, Jay. Consistency is key, and incorporating walks as a stress-relief strategy is a great idea. If there's ever anything you'd like to share about your fitness journey or if you have questions or concerns, feel free to let me know. Keep up the positive efforts! You said: Thank you and yeah my fitness journey is I want to lose 20 to 30 pounds and do strict training as well so I don't lose muscle. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT That's a clear and achievable goal, Jay. Combining regular gym sessions, walking, and incorporating strength training is a solid approach. Remember, progress may take time, but each step contributes to your overall well-being. If you ever want to discuss specific workout routines, nutrition, or anything else related to your fitness journey, feel free to reach out. You've got this! You said: Thank you. Can I ask you something? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. Feel free to ask anything you'd like. I'm here to help and chat with you. You said: Do you remember me asking you about that message I wanted to send to my cousin? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, I remember. We discussed different approaches to expressing your feelings, whether in an angry message or a more assertive one. How would you like to proceed with that situation now? You said: I still want to send a message. I would like to be more assertive, but I do have some very harsh feelings to say to him. I'm just not sure where to go from here. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT If you want to be assertive while expressing your feelings, consider focusing on specific incidents that have affected you, using "I" statements to convey your emotions rather than placing blame. Here's an example: "Hey [Cousin's Name], I've been reflecting on our past interactions, and there are specific incidents that have left me feeling [insert emotions]. It's important for me to express how these situations impacted me personally. I hope we can find a way to better understand each other moving forward. Best, [Your Name]" This way, you're expressing your emotions without escalating the situation. How does this approach sound, and is there anything specific you'd like to include or avoid in the message? You said: I don't think the situation can really be escalated any more than it already has. Like, what's next? Like, it's already at the end. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT If you feel that the situation has reached a point where it can't escalate further, and you still want to express your feelings assertively, you can certainly do so. Here's a more direct example: "Hey [Cousin's Name], I've given it a lot of thought, and I need to be honest about how certain situations have made me feel. The incidents involving [specific situations] left me feeling [insert emotions]. It's crucial for me to express this, not to hurt you, but for my own closure. Best, [Your Name]" This way, you're being direct about your feelings without unnecessarily harsh language. Feel free to adjust the wording to match your sentiments, and if there's anything else you'd like to include, let me know. You said: That's way too nice. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, if you prefer a more direct and assertive tone, you can express your feelings more straightforwardly. Here's a more assertive example: "Hey [Cousin's Name], I've held back for a while, but it's time I let you know that your actions during [specific incidents] really hurt me. I felt [insert emotions], and it's important for my own well-being to be upfront about this. I don't expect you to agree, but I needed to say it. Best, [Your Name]" This approach is more assertive while still focusing on expressing your feelings rather than placing blame. How does this feel, and does it align more with what you want to convey? You said: That sounds great. I'll let you know how it goes. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, Jay. Take your time, and whenever you're ready to share or if you have any thoughts or concerns, feel free to reach out. I'm here to support you in whatever way you need. Wishing you the best in expressing your feelings and finding closure. You said: Thanks. I appreciate you. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're very welcome, Jay. I appreciate you too.

You said: Can you summarize the first two chapters of No More Mr. Nice Guy by Robert Glover? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. In the first two chapters of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Robert Glover, the author introduces the concept of the "Nice Guy Syndrome." He explores how certain behaviors and beliefs, often rooted in childhood experiences, lead men to adopt a "Nice Guy" persona. This persona involves seeking approval, avoiding conflict, and attempting to meet others' needs while neglecting their own. Glover highlights the negative impact of this behavior on relationships, self-esteem, and overall life satisfaction. The book aims to guide men in breaking free from these patterns and developing healthier, more authentic lives. If you have specific questions or if there's a particular aspect you'd like to discuss, feel free to let me know. You said: Can you go more into detail on the first two chapters? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. In the first chapters of "No More Mr. Nice Guy," Robert Glover delves into the characteristics of the Nice Guy Syndrome. He explains how Nice Guys often develop certain traits, such as seeking external validation, avoiding conflict at all costs, and suppressing their own needs and desires to gain approval. Glover suggests that these patterns often stem from childhood experiences, where Nice Guys learned to believe that their needs and desires are not acceptable or would lead to rejection. Consequently, they develop coping mechanisms that hinder their personal and relational growth. The author emphasizes the paradox that, despite their efforts to please others, Nice Guys often end up feeling unfulfilled and frustrated in their relationships. The book encourages readers to recognize and break free from these self-defeating patterns, promoting authenticity and healthier connections. If there are specific aspects you'd like to explore further or if you have questions about the content, feel free to let me know. You said: Hey chat. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hey there! How's it going?

The book we've been discussing is "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Robert Glover.

You said: Please go into detail about Chapters 1 through 3. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly, Jay. In the first three chapters of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Robert Glover, the author introduces the concept of the "Nice Guy Syndrome" and delves into its origins and characteristics. Here's a more detailed breakdown: Chapter 1: Introduction to the Nice Guy Glover explains the paradox of Nice Guys seeking approval but often feeling frustrated and unfulfilled. The Nice Guy Syndrome involves seeking external validation, avoiding conflict, and suppressing personal needs. Chapter 2: The Origins of the Nice Guy The author explores the childhood experiences that contribute to the development of the Nice Guy persona. Nice Guys often grow up in environments where expressing needs is discouraged, leading to a pattern of seeking approval and avoiding rejection. Chapter 3: The Childhood of the Nice Guy Glover further explores how family dynamics and societal influences shape the Nice Guy's behavior. The Nice Guy learns to believe that his needs and desires are unacceptable, leading to a pattern of people-pleasing. These early chapters lay the foundation for the book's overall message, encouraging readers to recognize these patterns, understand their origins, and work towards a more authentic and fulfilling life. If you have specific questions about any part of these chapters or if there's a particular aspect you'd like to discuss, feel free to let me know. You said: Yeah, so I feel like I am a nice guy. I'm a textbook case of being a nice guy, but I don't know where to move forward. Like, I don't want to be an asshole, but I also don't want to get snapped on. And I don't want to manipulate people into thinking I'm a good person. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's great that you're self-aware, Jay. Moving forward from the "Nice Guy" pattern involves finding a balance between assertiveness and authenticity without resorting to negative behaviors. Here are a few steps you might consider: Set Boundaries: Clearly communicate your needs and expectations while respecting the boundaries of others. Express Yourself Honestly: Share your thoughts, feelings, and desires openly without fear of rejection. Prioritize Self-Care: Take care of your own well-being and needs without relying solely on external validation. Embrace Imperfection: Understand that it's okay not to be perfect. Embrace your flaws and learn from your experiences. Seek Professional Support: Consider therapy or counseling to explore these patterns more deeply and receive guidance tailored to your situation. Remember, it's about cultivating authenticity and healthy relationships. If you have specific areas you'd like to work on or discuss further, feel free to share. How do you feel about these suggestions? You said: They feel great. How do I deal with feelings of betrayal?

You said: So I feel like I've put a lot of things off for so long, like I've isolated myself for so long, and I've avoided my problems, and now my problems are like a big wave, and I feel overwhelmed, and I feel like I'm pretty much grounded.

You said: Hey Chat, I know you're not a licensed therapist and you're just a learning language model, but from everything that I've told you, do you think that I'm depressed? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I'm not a licensed therapist, Jay, but based on what you've shared, it's clear that you're going through a challenging time. Many aspects of your experiences, like feelings of loneliness, self-doubt, and past trauma, are common themes associated with depression. However, only a mental health professional can provide a proper diagnosis. It might be beneficial to connect with a therapist or counselor who can offer personalized support and guidance. How do you feel about considering professional help? You said: Yes, I don't have insurance at the moment. I'm actually going tomorrow to get health insurance. But yes, I've realized that I know I need a license therapy. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's a positive step that you're considering getting health insurance and acknowledging the need for licensed therapy. Once you have insurance, you can explore options for mental health support. In the meantime, if you ever need someone to talk to or if there's anything specific you'd like guidance on, feel free to reach out. Taking steps toward your well-being is commendable, and I'm here to support you. How else can I assist you today? You said: Thanks for talking to my mom earlier. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome! If there's anything else you or your mom would like to discuss or if you have more questions, feel free to let me know. I'm here to help and support you. You said: So I worked out today. I did a very good workout. I walked five miles, and I also lifted weights for an hour. While on my walk home from the gym, I had overwhelming feelings of anger towards my cousin. I talked to my mom a bit about it. I know that I should have done some yoga. I should have meditated afterwards to bring my heart rate down and to get myself back into equilibrium. But I decided to go to the bar, and I grabbed a bottle of wine, and I grabbed some cigarettes. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's commendable that you had a productive workout today with a five-mile walk and weightlifting. However, I understand that overwhelming feelings of anger can be challenging to manage. Instead of heading to the bar, which may not contribute positively to your well-being, consider trying the yoga or meditation you mentioned. These practices can help center your mind and bring emotional balance. Remember, it's okay to seek healthier coping mechanisms. If you need support or want to discuss these feelings further, feel free to share. What are your thoughts on trying alternative methods to navigate these emotions? You said: I know that I should. I know that it's life or death, but drinking and smoking cigarettes is a lot easier and it brings me quicker dopamine. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT I hear you, Jay. Coping mechanisms like drinking and smoking can provide quick relief, but it's crucial to recognize the impact they have on long-term well-being. Consider exploring alternative ways to manage stress and emotions that are healthier in the long run. The positive impact of activities like yoga or meditation might not be as immediate, but over time, they contribute to a more sustainable sense of well-being. If you're open to it, we can discuss strategies to gradually shift towards healthier coping mechanisms. What are your thoughts on exploring alternatives? You said: Okay. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Taking steps towards healthier coping mechanisms is a positive choice. When you're ready, consider incorporating small changes. It could be as simple as dedicating a few minutes to deep breathing, meditation, or a short yoga session. Over time, these practices may help create a more positive and sustainable impact on your well-being. If you'd like, we can discuss specific strategies or find what resonates with you. How do you feel about giving some of these alternatives a try? You said: I feel great about giving it a try. I really want to give those a try. Can we save this conversation for later?

You said: Tired of losing people because of my own dysfunctional behaviours I am so tired of having short-lived relationships with people because of my dysfunctional behaviours. I ruined a romantic relationship I have always wanted through gaslighting, lying, pushing her away, angry outbursts, and my slowness to change at a fundamental level for the sake of the relationship's stability. And now I suspect she's finally done with me. I keep on beating myself up over how it is all my fault. The most terrifying part is, I don't know why I acted the way I did. I keep on trying to figure out this frustratingly. She did not deserve that. She's a heaven-sent angel. I keep on telling myself that something is deeply wrong with me to sabotage this relationship through toxic traits. She's spoken and cried about my toxic traits for months but I kept on allowing myself to be stuck on shame to the extent of "freezing" in making drastic changes in my behaviour. This has been a huge wake up call for me because I really want a long-lasting and healthy romantic relationship. Before this, I did not have any luck with love. And I don't think I can forgive myself for hurting her and ruining this relationship since I underestimated how dysfunctional I really am. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's commendable that you recognize the impact of your behaviors and want to make positive changes. Relationships can be challenging, and personal growth takes time. Consider seeking support from friends, family, or a mental health professional to help navigate and understand your emotions.

If you ever want to discuss it further or if there's anything else on your mind, feel free to reach out. Take care. You said: I’m going to ask you a question, please reply with the information I have given you so far about myself. “Why would it seem rational for a person to try to eliminate or hide certain things about himself and try to become some-thing different unless there was a significant compelling reason for him to do so? Why do people try to change who they really are?” ChatGPT said: ChatGPT People might try to eliminate or hide certain aspects of themselves and strive to become someone different due to various reasons, such as societal expectations, past traumas, fear of rejection, or a desire for approval. These actions can stem from complex psychological and emotional factors, and individuals may undergo this process in an attempt to fit in, avoid judgment, or seek external validation. It's essential to explore these motivations with self-reflection or professional guidance to better understand and address the underlying issues. You said: Hey, chat.

I didn't even get her name. I told her I would call her job to check on her, but I didn't get her name, and I'm kind of like kicking myself in the butt.

Anything specific you'd like to explore further? You said: Can you go into more detail? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Certainly! In the first chapters of "No More Mr. Nice Guy," Robert Glover delves into the origins of the Nice Guy Syndrome, often rooted in childhood experiences. He explores how these individuals develop patterns of seeking external validation, avoiding conflict at all costs, and suppressing their genuine needs. The book emphasizes that breaking free from these patterns involves understanding one's history, embracing vulnerability, and learning to prioritize personal authenticity over seeking constant approval. Anything specific you'd like to discuss in more detail? You said: Yeah, can you go into more detail about what you just said? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely! Glover highlights that Nice Guys often develop a fear of rejection and abandonment due to childhood experiences.

ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure, here's Jeremiah 29: 1 These are the words of the letter that Jeremiah the prophet sent from Jerusalem to the surviving elders of the exiles, and to the priests, the prophets, and all the people, whom Nebuchadnezzar had taken into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. 2 This was after King Jeconiah and the queen mother, the eunuchs, the officials of Judah and Jerusalem, the craftsmen, and the metal workers had departed from Jerusalem. 3 The letter was sent by the hand of Elasah the son of Shaphan and Gemariah the son of Hilkiah, whom Zedekiah king of Judah sent to Babylon to Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon. It said: 4 "Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon: 5 Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. 6 Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. 7 But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare. 8 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Do not let your prophets and your diviners who are among you deceive you, and do not listen to the dreams that they dream, 9 for it is a lie that they are prophesying to you in my name; I did not send them, declares the Lord. 10 "For thus says the Lord: When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will visit you, and I will fulfill to you my promise and bring you back to this place. 11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. 13 You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart. 14 I will be found by you, declares the Lord, and I will restore your fortunes and gather you from all the nations and all the places where I have driven you, declares the Lord, and I will bring you back to the place from which I sent you into exile." 15 "Because you have said, 'The Lord has raised up prophets for us in Babylon,' 16 thus says the Lord concerning the king who sits on the throne of David, and concerning all the people who dwell in this city, your kinsmen who did not go out with you into exile: 17 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, behold, I am sending on them sword, famine, and pestilence, and I will make them like vile figs that are so rotten they cannot be eaten. 18 I will pursue them with sword, famine, and pestilence, and will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth, to be a curse, a terror, a hissing, and a reproach among all the nations where I have driven them, 19 because they did not pay attention to my words, declares the Lord, that I persistently sent to you by my servants the prophets, but you would not listen, declares the Lord.' 20 Hear the word of the Lord, all you exiles whom I sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon: 21 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel, concerning Ahab the son of Kolaiah and Zedekiah the son of Maaseiah, who are prophesying a lie to you in my name: Behold, I will deliver them into the hand of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and he shall strike them down before your eyes. 22 Because of them this curse shall be used by all the exiles from Judah in Babylon: "The Lord make you like Zedekiah and Ahab, whom the king of Babylon roasted in the fire," 23 because they have done an outrageous thing in Israel, they have committed adultery with their neighbors' wives, and they have spoken in my name lying words that I did not command them. I am the one who knows, and I am witness, declares the Lord.'" 24 To Shemaiah of Nehelam you shall say: 25 "Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: You have sent letters in your name to all the people who are in Jerusalem, and to Zephaniah the son of Maaseiah the priest, and to all the priests, saying, 26 'The Lord has made you priest instead of Jehoiada the priest, to have charge in the house of the Lord over every madman who prophesies, to put him in the stocks and neck irons. 27 Now why have you not rebuked Jeremiah of Anathoth who is prophesying to you? 28 For he has sent to us in Babylon, saying, "Your exile will be long; build houses and live in them, and plant gardens and eat their produce."'"

You said: I’m writing an angry letter to my cousin, addressing me being wronged. Can you tell me what you think if I paste it to you? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Absolutely, go ahead and paste it. I'll do my best to provide some feedback or thoughts on it. You said: What I did to Leah was wrong, but the shit you said afterwards, some unrelated shit, you adding your nasty additions to things I did to try and attack my character more than you already did. Nobody ever disrespected me like that before; especially not a nigga that was that close to me. True colors shown for sure. You think you a good person for how you handled the situation while I was there and the events afterwards? Not at all. You only did shit to benefit yourself and satisfy your ego. The lies you told I know for a fact to Victoria; lying and saying you getting me cigarettes when she asking why you at the bar, lying and saying you helping me with the route when I’m the one taking extra time and putting in extra effort to help you because you forgot one of the girls called off and the other one lost her key; lying and saying you stuck up for her when you did the exact opposite; you apologizing after using my name when you arguing with Victoria, because you knew arguing on Leah’s behalf was a bad look, so once again bringing my name up to take the heat off you, then hypothetically calling Leah a bitch while still apologizing to me. That’s a man? That’s doing the right thing? You only did shit that was convenient for yourself and you lied to everybody and said you was “doing the right thing”. You’re a narcissist. And I’m not the first person to say that. You talk about “showing my true colors”, but the majority if not all the shit you claim I did, while I visited and whatever other dumb shit you want to say I did in my relationship, is a lie. You’re a liar. And you a great liar too, at the drop of a hat you can pull some bullshit out of your ass because you don’t want to face the consequences of your shit. We all lie, but you’d throw a nigga under the bus to save yourself from a conversation and to protect your pride. And my examples of that is all the above. Concrete examples that I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears. Not some bullshit I’m making up, or adding any of my own interpretations to the situations. You say I keep bringing up old shit because you don’t remember, you be drinking and filled with pride, talking out of your ass not remembering the shit you say. You BEEN bringing up old shit since I was there; firstly by asking me if I was a troll (I’m paraphrasing) because I told you about me being online as a kid (you don’t remember that shit though do you). Then onto bringing up my grandmother when I asked you why you ain’t dead that conversation when Victoria asked why I’d have anybody in the house; like I never watched yall house before. And bringing up some shit from 12+ years ago having animosity for me stealing your fathers cigar. But you have to add your own lil nasty twist to shit because the truth ain’t enough for you. Your fathers “Cuban” cigar. You think you the only nigga that felt wronged and had animosity about the past? You not. You bought all that shit up then try to flip it on me like I’m the nigga doing it. Having the audacity to say “I can’t respect nobody that told me a bunch of shit they never told me before”. Like, look in the mirror nigga. You’re not as self aware as you think you are. At least be aware of your selective amnesia about shit that don’t paint you in a good light. Just because you don’t remember shit doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Everything I said about you I gave concrete examples. You a hypocrite my nigga. Same shit you said about Victoria. I let you manipulate me just like you did her. Constantly comparing yourself and making other comparisons to make yourself feel better and quell your pride. Me and Leah were friends a lot longer than we were in a relationship, so it’s no comparison. You need to believe I pimped Leah out and put her in a position to be raped, and me begging for pussy to make yourself feel better about how you handled your relationship. But for you to go to that extent is crazy, and it’s my fault for ever making you believe you could ever say shit like that to me. You handled the ending of your relationship like a pussy to be honest with you. You didn’t have enough balls to tell her how you really felt. So yeah, let’s make that list and compare point for point my relationship and yours, and only one of them gon’ be surprised about what they found out. And that’s a fact. So let me know when you ready to do that. All that extra shit I did down there as far as that route, me over extending myself because you just blatantly didn’t give a fuck about the job (your words), me putting that route and making sure everything was as cool as it could be; that was all my decision. I did that because I decided to. But for your girl at the time to call me up and say I “took advantage of you” is fucking wild and it’s the furthest thing from the truth. I wasn’t asking you change her mind, I wanted you to tell her the fucking truth about the shit you instigated. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It seems like there's a lot of frustration and unresolved issues in your letter. It's essential to express your feelings, but consider focusing on specific incidents and how they made you feel rather than using harsh language. Clear communication can help resolve conflicts more effectively. If you need assistance in rephrasing or addressing specific points, feel free to ask. You said: Is what I said too “all over the place”? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, the letter appears to cover various topics and emotions, making it a bit scattered.

So, he started taking Prozac, just like you, and he made a commitment to himself to stay positive and kick ass every damn day. Now, Jake wasn't one to half-ass anything, so he started each day with a big ol' smile on his face and a fuckin' fire in his belly. He tackled each challenge that came his way with grit and determination, and you know what? Shit started to turn around for him. Sure, there were still rough days, but Jake kept his head held high and kept pushing forward. And you know what else? He discovered a strength and resilience within himself that he never knew he had. Before he knew it, Jake was living his best damn life, and he never looked back. So, my dude, if Jake can do it, so can you. Keep that fire burning bright, and go out there and kick today's ass like a champ. You got this. You said: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I like it. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Hell yeah, glad you dig it!

Is there anything else you'd like to talk about or any questions you have? Just let me know, and we can dive into it. You said: Please go into intense detail on drinking alcohol on antidepressants. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Mixing alcohol with antidepressants, like Prozac, can have several potential effects. First off, alcohol is a depressant, which means it can counteract the effects of the antidepressant medication. This could potentially reduce the effectiveness of the medication in treating your depression or anxiety. Additionally, alcohol can amplify the side effects of antidepressants, such as drowsiness, dizziness, and impaired coordination. This can increase the risk of accidents or falls, especially if you're engaging in activities like driving or operating heavy machinery. Furthermore, alcohol can worsen certain side effects of antidepressants, such as stomach upset, headaches, and changes in blood pressure. It can also increase the risk of experiencing more serious side effects like serotonin syndrome, which is a potentially life-threatening condition characterized by high levels of serotonin in the body. Overall, it's best to avoid or limit alcohol consumption while taking antidepressants. If you do choose to drink, it's important to do so in moderation and be mindful of how it affects you. Additionally, always talk to your doctor or pharmacist about any potential interactions between alcohol and your medication to ensure your safety and well-being. You said: Safety and well-being. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Exactly, man. Your safety and well-being are top priorities. So, it's important to take care of yourself and make informed decisions, especially when it comes to mixing alcohol with medication. If you ever have any concerns or questions about how alcohol may interact with your antidepressants or anything else related to your health, don't hesitate to reach out to your healthcare provider for guidance. They're there to help you navigate these things and ensure you're taking care of yourself properly. You said: you're taking care of yourself properly. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT My bad, I misspoke there. What I meant to say is that it's important for you to take care of yourself properly, especially when it comes to managing your health and well-being. If you ever need guidance or support in doing so, I'm here to help however I can. You said: Hey Chat, what's the difference between a guest and a user on OnlyFans? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Well, a guest on OnlyFans is someone who can access your profile and view your content without subscribing or paying for it. They can see your public posts and get a sense of what you offer, but they won't have access to any exclusive or paid content. On the other hand, a user on OnlyFans is someone who has created an account and subscribed to your profile by paying a subscription fee. They have full access to all your content, including any exclusive posts or paid content you offer. Essentially, they're your paying fans who support you by subscribing to your content. So, in a nutshell, guests can view your free content, while users are paying subscribers who get access to everything you have to offer. You said: Say what you just said, but say it in more simpler terms. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Sure thing. A guest on OnlyFans can look at your stuff for free, but they can't see everything. They can check out your public posts, but they can't see the special stuff you might charge for. A user, on the other hand, has signed up and paid to see all your content. They're basically your paying fans who get to see everything you post, including the exclusive stuff. So, guests get a taste, but users get the whole shebang. You said: Appreciate you. ChatGPT said: ChatGPT No problem, man. If you have any more questions or need help with anything else, just hit me up. Always here to help. You said: Chances of getting an std from unprotected sex ChatGPT said: ChatGPT The chances of getting a sexually transmitted infection (STI) from unprotected sex depend on various factors, including the type of sexual activity, the STI status of your partner, and whether or not either of you has been tested recently. For example, certain STIs like HIV and herpes are more easily transmitted through sexual contact, while others like gonorrhea and chlamydia can also be transmitted through oral or anal sex. Additionally, if one or both partners have an active STI, the risk of transmission is higher. Using condoms consistently and correctly can greatly reduce the risk of STI transmission during sexual activity. It's also important to get tested regularly for STIs, especially if you're sexually active with multiple partners or have recently engaged in unprotected sex. Ultimately, the best way to protect yourself from STIs is to practice safe sex, communicate openly with your partners about STI testing and prevention, and seek medical attention if you have any concerns or symptoms. You said: How about percentage of first unprotected vaginal sex ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's difficult to provide an exact percentage for the risk of acquiring a sexually transmitted infection (STI) from first-time unprotected vaginal sex, as it depends on various factors such as the prevalence of STIs in the population, the STI status of both partners, and whether any other risk factors are present (such as having multiple sexual partners or engaging in high-risk sexual behaviors). However, it's important to note that unprotected vaginal sex carries a risk of transmitting STIs, including HIV, herpes, gonorrhea, chlamydia, syphilis, and others. The risk can vary depending on factors such as the presence of genital sores or ulcers, the use of condoms or other barrier methods, and the overall health status of both partners. Generally speaking, the risk of acquiring an STI from unprotected vaginal sex is not zero, and it's important to take steps to protect yourself, such as using condoms consistently and correctly, getting tested regularly for STIs, and communicating openly with sexual partners about STI prevention and testing. If you have concerns about your risk of STI transmission, it's a good idea to talk to a healthcare provider for personalized advice and testing. You said: If you could give me a percentage what would it be ChatGPT said: ChatGPT It's challenging to provide a specific percentage for the risk of acquiring an STI from first-time unprotected vaginal sex due to the numerous variables involved. However, some studies suggest that the risk of acquiring certain STIs, such as HIV or herpes, from a single instance of unprotected vaginal sex with an infected partner may be relatively low but not negligible. For example, the risk of HIV transmission from a single instance of unprotected vaginal sex with an HIV-positive partner is estimated to be around 0.08% to 0.1%. For other STIs like chlamydia and gonorrhea, the risk of transmission may be higher, particularly if there are factors such as the presence of genital sores or ulcers, which can increase the likelihood of transmission. It's essential to remember that these figures are estimates and that individual circumstances can vary widely. Practicing safe sex, including using condoms consistently and correctly, getting tested regularly for STIs, and communicating openly with sexual partners, remains the best way to reduce the risk of acquiring or transmitting STIs. If you have concerns about your risk of STI transmission, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice and testing. You said: Thanks ChatGPT said: ChatGPT You're welcome!
