A limit worth keeping
If a direct conversation would not be safe, support matters more than a polished script. The exercises do not ask you to win an argument or refuse every request.
These exercises support reflection and practical planning. They do not provide diagnosis, therapy, or individual legal, financial or medical advice. An AI can misunderstand, invent details or agree too readily. You can reject its suggestions. If there is immediate danger, or you feel unable to keep yourself safe, contact your local emergency or health service. In the UK, call 999 in an emergency. A prompt is not emergency support.
