    I don’t want this to come off wrong or as condescending, but if you have access to a therapist there in China, I humbly suggest you seek out their advice. They might help you sidestep some of the cultural hurdles you feel are in the way of what you want.

      My family emigrated and I’m currently in the US, where thankfully there is more acceptance for mental health issues.

      And yes I’m in the process of getting help for depression… I did an intake last month… I had an evaluation today on a virtual appointment… but idk how long this shit is gonna take…

      Next appointment is like… 2 weeks from now…

      Idk why they keep repeatedly asking similar questions… ugh…

      I can now see why people sometimes get desparate and start “talking” to an “AI” (aka: LLMs)
