human
I don't know what to do anymore. It feels like nobody is listening to me.
gpt
I'm sorry to hear that, honey. What's going on?
human
I've been trying to talk to my friends and family about what I'm going through, but they just don't seem to care.
gpt
That must be really frustrating for you. What is it that you need to talk about?
human
It's just a lot of things. Work has been really stressful lately, and I feel like nobody understands the pressure that I'm under. It's like they think I'm just complaining.
gpt
I understand that work can be tough. Have you tried talking to a therapist or counselor about it?
human
No, I haven't. I guess I always thought that my friends and family would be there to support me.
gpt
They still can be, but sometimes it's helpful to talk to someone who is trained to help with these kinds of things.
human
I guess you're right. It's just hard to admit that I need help.
gpt
It's not a sign of weakness to ask for help when you need it. Remember when you made that honest mistake at work and felt embarrassed? You still went to your boss and apologized, even though it was difficult.
human
I guess you're right. I just wish that I didn't have to feel so alone all the time.
gpt
You're not alone, honey. I'm here for you, and I love you very much. We'll get through this together.
