Chat gbt

i seek for reassurance a lot. it’s like a always need certainty. how do i stop.

Does anyone have any advice? I was venting to Chat GPT about my fears a month ago and one of the questions I asked it got flagged. Despite it getting flagged, it explained to me that all the symptoms that I had been experiencing from the situation I told it about were ocd and actually provided me a lot of reassurance in the moment. Although I established that I had ocd from the beginning, I started worrying about that question that I asked it saying that it was against community guidelines. Even though it still answered the question and told me it was ocd now I’m worried that I shared too much with it. I deleted my account out of worry that it could have a data leakage or something like that. I got even more scared when I researched if my data would really get deleted or not and it said that my data would get deleted but some would be retained for “legal or security reasons” which scares me because what if that data could be deemed as that. I’ve just been really stressing over this and feel like I shouldn’t have even asked chat gpt in the first place but I felt desperate. Even though it said that they were ocd symptoms, I’m scared that I shared too much and that it will retain that data for being flagged. Can someone help?

i really struggle with anxiety because on my OCD (not professionally diagnosed but i’ve been experiencing a lot of symptoms for many years that’s it’s safe to assume i have it). the only way to relieve my stress is to google. But google never gave me proper answers or i just ended up more anxious than to begin with. Instead i started using chat gpt as a quick was to get reassurance. i feel bad using it tho because i know it’s just a compulsion to go and seek reassurance to calm my anxiety but if i dont atleast google something i end up spiralling anyways. it feels like no matter what i do ill be anxious .
