TL;DR - I set a boundary with a Christian friend who trampled over it - I have decided to cut contact with him and his response tells me it's for the best. 

I posted my rant yesterday about a friend who has been spiritually harassing me here:

I wanted to say thank you to those of you who were able to offer some grounding words and kind empathy. I ended up sending one final message because ghosting is something I used to do but I don't love it. I struggle when others leave no closure, even though it's not owed. So wanted to give him my final words before I cut it off. 

I'm sure many of you would have done it differently but that's what I like about having deconstructed; I get to be me. 

Plus it also confirmed for me that what I did was right and I wasn't blowing things out of proportion. 

Those of you that were warning about ChatGPT and AI psychosis: very valid concerns. I've tried to train my language model to give me grounded reflections, and I prompted it to factor the dangers of AI psychosis explicitly. That said, it is still a powerful tool which can do real harm when poorly handled. I understand it is no substitute for therapy, as I am a therapist. And I understand that does not make me immune to mental health struggles. Thank you for your well meaning words of caution in that regard. 

Kinda sucks he provided no apology, he even seems proud and dug himself in deeper. It's weird to think that you can be so deluded that you wouldn't even recognize that you just erased a friend from your life. 

Update: Exhausted and Spiralling
