Skye Wheatley has revealed that she has been using artificial intelligence (AI) to assist her with her mental health.
The 30-year-old reality star, who recently admitted to having ADHD, has shared the AI-generated insights with her 646K followers on Instagram.
Posting to her stories, Skye said she has been ‘asking’ ChatGPT ‘advice’ about complex issues such as Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD), a condition linked to ADHD.
‘I’ve been to therapy and ChatGPT is my fave counsellor,’ she said on a recent social media post.
The post included a list of go-to coping strategies including ‘Mindful self-compassion’ – which advised Skye to speak to herself as ‘she would to her son’ – in order to not become overwhelmed with ‘inner critical voices’.

ChatGPT also advised Skye to practise ‘self-forgiveness’ and ‘connection with other ADHD women and parents’.
‘Back in my day, it (ADHD) wasn’t like a well-known thing and it wasn’t a positive thing,’ the former reality star said during a recent episode of her podcast, Skye & Callum.
During the session she told co-host Callum Hole that she was diagnosed with the condition at the age of five.
She continued, ‘Nowadays I feel like it’s a strength because it means that you’re good creatively, or you’re good at social stuff like this, and there’s more job opportunities for people who do struggle intellectually.’
In another video post Skye shared her fears that she might be autistic.
‘I honestly feel like, even though I have ADHD, I feel like I might also be on the spectrum,’ she said.
‘Because of noises, I really struggle with noises and movement. I can’t, my brain is just (sound effects of an explosion). Even the TV going on right now, oh my God, I am so triggered.’
Skye recently admitted she suffers from body dysmorphia after getting a controversial fox eye lift surgery and several other procedures in Turkey.

The social media star cried in an emotional video posted to TikTok and admitted the illness is ‘probably why’ she’s had so many cosmetic procedures, adding she was terrified her two sons will eventually suffer from the same condition.
‘I know that I’m probably mentally ill and I know that I have body dysmorphia,’ the I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! 2024 winner said.
‘I just put a lot of pressure on myself to be perfect. That would kill me and break my heart if my kids went through that.
‘I do not want them to go through that.’
She also opened up about her failed childhood dreams and admitted she had ‘daddy issues’.
‘When I was little, I wanted to be a famous singer. I dreamed of being a famous singer, but as I got older and older I doubted myself more,’ she said.
‘I always had this little voice in my head saying “You’re not good enough”.
‘Maybe that’s daddy issues, I don’t know. But I’ve always been like this. I’ve always had this voice in my head saying “you’re not good enough”.’
The podcaster rose to fame on the 2014 iteration of the reality TV juggernaut, Big Brother.
