Can socializing in a chat room all day help you get over anxiety?

Like if someone spends ALL of their free time in a chat room where they are comfortable talking to ppl they don’t know in real life and have no real life friends can it be a way to get over your anxiety/depression. How about online gf’s? Is it like the real thing? Thanks

no. and yes.

no because the ..cyber world is honestly not like the real world. maybe you get to express yourself i some ways. but the other side of communication is good for your mental health! been ther done that.

yes. try doing it less though. go out there!!!!

it’s gonna take steps depending on how you have the condition. hey do you have a therapist to talk to , btw?? it’s preferable for her/him to be a cognitive one.
