I don't think the advice is bad. I think it depends on the bar you go to. There are nice bars. And you don't have to order alcohol.
I also think Lili's advice is good about other things to do. The advantage of a bar though is it's more conducive to conversation than some other places.
> I have a tendency to become extremely needy and lonely and just plain crazy. The other day, I was on the phone with a newer shrink (new to me) and I asked him what I should do that evening because I was feeling desperate and needed to be around people. His response: Go to a bar.
