I have always been very skeptical of AI, especially using AI for therapy. however, like a lot of people therapy isn't always affordable or available/easy to obtain. I've tried several other AI therapy apps. Some lure you in an.d then drop a paywall in front of you that you have to pay for in order to keep using the app, and some are too repetive or simplistic in their responses. So far, Onsen doesn't do any of that, and it has helped me so much in only a few hours of use.

To me personally, I find this app very useful. Now my thoughts on using Ai such as these are... mixed and complicated. But I do love how you're able to just chat as some kind of outlet and have everything you mentioned about feeling and topics you wanted to focus on be turned into a journal entry. It actually does a great job at summarizing everything, and the art is really nice. If a subscription is put in place, please do not lock everything behind a paywall. I still want to use the journal.

I'm a therapist's nightmare, a pharmaceuticals dream come true, & a 'menace' to society. Therapists, medications, rehabs, hospital stays....I've done them all. Some work a little, the rest not at all. I've been diagnosed with multiple mental health issues; I know the struggle. Then this app comes along. I was skeptical at first, but decided to try it. I'm so glad I did. This app has done more for me in 3 days then my therapist has done in months. That should tell you something. Highly Recommend
