If you just want to talk about your day or receive psychological support or even answer questions like this one, LLMs are great: Opus 4.6 is currently considered the best, but also try Gemini and ChatGPT.

As for interacting with humans, if you are finding it hard, maybe you can try something that is easy because it has a structure, such as some sort of workshop where you either share in a circle or are paired with a random partner and share (ask LLMs for help in finding them).

Or even pay someone to talk to them, such as a psychotherapist or a counselor.

It's probably less damaging to recommend abusing Xanax than recommending using a LLM.
