The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about sadness regarding a/an breakup with partner. The seeker says
"My girlfriend and I broke up due to all the fights we were having. It was mutual but it was still sad. I felt as if my life had ended and everything was in black and white. I was sad for a year afterwards.". | sys : (Question) Hello, how are you feeling today? Is there anything you'd like to talk about?
usr : I am sad because I lost my girlfriend of one year.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Oh I am so sorry to hear that - this is a terrible time of year to get dumped. Please know that it will get better in time!
usr : Why do you think it will get better?
sys : (Self-disclosure) Well, although it sounds like a cliche, time does help with healing wounds. It took me a while to get over a break up. We had been together eight years!
usr : That must've been hard. Is it possible to heal without finding another?
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Yes I think that it is but you really do need to be kind to yourself and give it time. Do you have good friends to support you?
usr : Many of my friends wouldn't understand as they are in long-term relationships. But yes, I've a few good friends.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) That is a blessing at least though I know it can be hard to see people in happy relationships when you are single.
usr : What did you do to cope in the first year of losing your partner ?
sys : (Self-disclosure) I cried a lot to be honest, especially as he was happy with someone else. But I tried to focus on my work and my hobbies. It helped.
usr : What sort of hobbies helped you?
| (Question) Well I love to read. Do you have anything that you could do to help you relax and take your mind off things? |

usr : I hope you are getting by well also. I try and am kind of used to it by now. But the fear is coming back since two to three weeks ago with renewed cases.
usr : yeah and I believe in social support and therapy. It's good to talk out.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) It's hard when we live in a divided world. Some people want this...and some people want that. I would suggest just letting go of the things not in your control, even though that is hard.
usr : yeah I will try and I know what you mean
sys : (Question) Do you go to therapy?
usr : It does feel like I am in an apocalyptic world and self isolated in my safety bunker. And a few months ago, I felt more lonely and claustrophobic. I feel better now. I guess the best and safest place now is my home.
sys : (Others) You do what's best for you, that is what is important. Don't worry about others.
usr : No, I believe in it and I talk openly with my close friends about issues but have only gone for medical therapy a few times. I will try to have my usual health checkup once the pandemic is more in control, and so then I might consider getting a referral
usr : yeah that's true. I will keep that in mind
| (Providing Suggestions) Have you heard of teletherapy? I do that and you don't have to worry about leaving your house! |
### Dialogue background ###
The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about depression regarding a/an ongoing depression. The seeker says
"the pandemic". | usr : Hi there
sys : (Others) hello! how are you?
usr : I am good, thanks. I hope you're well also.
sys : (Question) Is there anything bothering you or upsetting you right now?
usr : Sure, one of the biggest concerns I have right now is the pandemic
usr : Especially with the rising second wave in my city.
sys : (Question) What city are you in?
usr : I live in Canada on the east coast.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) That must be difficult living in such a big city with the pandemic going on.
sys : (Question) What are you must scared of or stressed about?
usr : yes of course.
usr : just the sense of fear, anxiety, and paranoia. And helplessness and anguish that people are complacent and selfish and stupid.
usr : Keep reading up on exposure sites here like restaurants and gyms, and the culprits are those between 18-35 years old.
sys : (Self-disclosure) I've had similar feelings also. People can be very selfish right now. That's normal to feel that way!
sys : (Question) How have you been coping with anxiety?
usr : yeah. Like I am scared of being sick at anytime. It could h appen anytime.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) It sounds like you're scared of the virus is that right?
usr : well, I talk with my friend daily on the phone. I also stay sane by staying at home. I work out when I have time, but not so much as before.
usr : yeah quite so. It's an invisible enemy, like people cannot believe it's taking effect or they will get it.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) It sounds like you're doing a great job adjusting though! Good for you. Talking with people will help a lot.
usr : I can only stay safe for so long but it takes cooperation from my citizens and also the leaders here to be responsible in lockdowns etc.

sys : (Providing Suggestions) Have you heard of teletherapy? I do that and you don't have to worry about leaving your house!
usr : not that I have an active and huge problem, but that I don't think it's so bad, as mental illness is so stigmatized. You can go for therapy and talk things over even if you don't have that big of a problem.
usr : no I have not done any medical appointments since earlier this year.
| (Self-disclosure) Exactly! I totally agree. I love just talking to my therapist. It's so nice just to have someone listen and give feedback that isn't a friend. |

usr : I broke up with my girlfriend since we didnt have chemistry and now I feel alone.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) I am sorry to hear that. It must be even more difficult in a pandemic time. When did this happen? If you don't mind telling me more about it.
usr : This happened a month or so ago.
sys : (Others) How are you doing recently? Do you have any coping mechanism that you can share with me? I can lend you an ear.
usr : I'm lonely and bored. Feel like there is nothing to do by myself. I play video games to cope.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I went through the same process. I understand what you are feeling. I am glad that you are on Mechanical Turk and interacting with people. Which area do you live in? It is springtime and pretty outside. Have you thought about walking more walks?

I would personally recommend you sharing a little bit more with family during Easter. It doesn't have to be the intimate details of the breakup, it can be generic feeling, like loneliness. |

usr : I am feeling really down.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) I'm sorry to hear you're feeling that way, what has you feeling this way?
usr : My husband and I have 4 kids. One of those children is a child from his previous marriage. We constantly argue about how he favors that child over our other 3.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Oh no, that's not good. Do the other kids see it as well?
usr : 2 of the children are younger so they do not realize it but the other child is older and definitely notices.
sys : (Question) Does your husband realize that the other child notices it and how it hurts them?
usr : I have told him but he is in denial of the whole situation.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) Why do you think he favors that child? Is that child only with you part-time that he feels he needs to make the most of that time?
usr : The child is with us every other week and maybe that is why he treats him differently but my husband knows that it is causing problems in our relationship and refuses to change those behaviors. I just do not know what to do anymore.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Is there someone that's close to both of you that you could talk to, that way they can help him see that it's very apparent that he's treating him different?
usr : I suppose I could talk to his mother. But, I have reservations because I feel like she will side with him since it his her son.
sys : (Self-disclosure) Very true, and it would likely be better with someone no quite so close to the situation. But you also don't have to attack him to her, just lay out the facts. I understand the frustration, it's hard to see your kids hurting or feeling like they're not enough. Is this the biggest issue you guys are dealing with in your marriage?
sys : (Others) Or is it just another thing you're not getting along on?
usr : That is very true. This is our main issue. I suppose I need to find someone who is close to us both but not necessarily a family member.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Someone who has seen you interacting as a family and maybe has noticed it as well.
usr : Yes, that is a good idea. Thank you for all of your help. It makes me feel a little better just telling someone about the issue.
sys : (Others) Sometimes just getting it off of your chest is all you need to reset.
