I already told it about my problem.

Dr. Eliza, like the rest of the human race, is presently pretty limited in diagnosing non-religious-based psychiatric issues because of the nearly universal lack of reference to anything consistent. This is a VERY similar challenge to trying to diagnose a malfunctioning computer based on its output - which except for some rare cases is fundamentally impossible. It does much better with religious-based psychiatric issues, e.g. when you start attributing your problems to good, evil, god, the devil, etc., and sometimes drills down to the point where people can see the breaks in their own thinking, e.g. with questions inquiring whether they think that God caused their problems, or did God decide not to intervene in their problems. Dr. Eliza hadn't given up on the prospect that you might provide some clues that it could use to figure out what your problem is, before you gave up on Dr. Eliza. Sounds like Dr. Eliza is up and running.
