sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) ok sorry to hear that
usr : and he left right after we lost our baby
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) ok sorry to hear that, how do you feel about that?
usr : I still love him and want him back even after all that
sys : (Question) okay does he know how you feel?
usr : yes he does but he says he doesn't want a relationship with anyone
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) okay, maybe if you give him time he might change his mind?
usr : Maybe but what if he dates someone else
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) he might not, maybe if you just give him time, you might feel different about him aswell. Dont you think?
usr : Probably true but its getting harder to not think about him lately
sys : (Providing Suggestions) okay, is there anything you can do to take your mind off things?
sys : (Question) or speak to anyone about it?
usr : work and school i guess but then every time I break its hard
sys : (Providing Suggestions) okay, have you ever tried meditation?
usr : I don't want to involve friends or family into this
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) okay, I understand
usr : am trying to make sure no one notices so cant secretly see a therapist
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Why don't you want nobody to find out, if I might ask?
usr : because if we do get back together my family or friends might not agree with it
usr : or support it
sys : (Question) okay, isn't it best to do what you think is right though?
usr : What I think is right might hurt other people like how people view him
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) okay fair enough
sys : (Question) Why do you still want him even though, he broke up with you if you don't mind me asking?
usr : its hard to let go of everything after all we've had
sys : (Providing Suggestions) it might be hard, but isn't it better to see how things go without him. It's not good to be a relationship if someone isn't 100 percent dont you agree?
usr : it feels like loosing an important part of my body
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) it might feel like that now, but in time I am sure it will change
usr : but yes i am trying to just stop and leave but sometimes he calls especially when he needs help
usr : and I cant not help him, and I get reminded of everything somewhere a long the way
sys : (Self-disclosure) okay, in my opinion I believe its best to be strong and try and focus on yourself and live a good life without him for now, until he changes his mind then maybe you re-asses the situation.
usr : Thank you will keep trying to do that.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) if you can't help him, its best you try and focus on yourself.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) no worries, I am here for you.
sys : (Information) what are you plans for today?
usr : surprising better when can talk about all this
usr : and none really just staying indoors
| (Affirmation and Reassurance) I think it is better, yes because then we can we see a better future :) |

usr : Oh no, I hate driving in the snow. Spun out one year- rather not drive in snow- at least when it's icy.
usr : My interest rate hit another credit card. Have to pay $80 more a month now
usr : Hoping to find more work so I can pay it off faster
| (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Ah, so if I understand you correctly, your interest rate has increased, so you need to find another job to pay it off? |

| (Question) I'm sorry to hear that. Are you feeling stressed out about it? |

| (Self-disclosure) I understand exactly how you feel. When I finished school, I wanted to pay off my student loans as soon as possible. |

| (Reflection of feelings) I understand that also. There needs to be some sort of balance. |

sys : (Providing Suggestions) It's just a thought. Alternatively, I'm not sure if you typically get money for birthdays and the winter holidays, but you could commit some of that amount towards your principal amount.
usr : I get some but I spend the money on myself- like chocolate!
usr : itll prob take me 2-3 years to pay it off. if i go too much into discrectionary money i feel deprived
sys : (Reflection of feelings) I understand that also. There needs to be some sort of balance.

The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an job crisis. The seeker says
"I need to make more money to pay off my credit cards.". | sys : (Others) Hi there. How are you doing today?
usr : I'm good. Getting cold outside. Temp dropping over 20 degrees. Brr
sys : (Others) Yes, I know! It's supposed to snow this week where I am. So, I understand you are in need of someone to talk to. What's going on.
usr : Oh no, I hate driving in the snow. Spun out one year- rather not drive in snow- at least when it's icy.
usr : My interest rate hit another credit card. Have to pay $80 more a month now
usr : Hoping to find more work so I can pay it off faster
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Ah, so if I understand you correctly, your interest rate has increased, so you need to find another job to pay it off?
usr : yeah cuz it was a no interest rate card and that expired so it started charging interest. I knew it was coming but need to work more hours now. The interest I pay every month will go down as I pay more of the principal off. I just hate it
sys : (Question) I'm sorry to hear that. Are you feeling stressed out about it?
usr : Yes and no. Cuz I know I will pay it off within 3 years at the most. Probably closer to two years. I just don't like to wait and want to pay it off sooner if possible
sys : (Self-disclosure) I understand exactly how you feel. When I finished school, I wanted to pay off my student loans as soon as possible.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) I'm glad to hear that you are not too stressed about it though.
usr : Yeah it's easier said than done. Btw I heard Biden might forgive student loans! Yay!
usr : Yeah cuz it bought a lot of items I needed so I'm happy I got them
sys : (Others) I heard about Biden's plans as well! Luckily, I paid all of my debts already but I think it will be great for other people.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Perhaps if you are unable to find another job to reduce the principal, you could try setting aside a certain amount of money each month to put towards the amount owed?
usr : maybe they will reimburse you on what you paid
usr : I could if i really discipline myself to

usr : absolutely. the time will go by fast enough and it will be paid off. ill make sure not to run the credit cards so high next time
| (Others) Sounds like you've learned an important lesson from this, and will work towards responsibly paying it off. I have faith in you! |

sys : (Self-disclosure) I've done a fair bit of it before ... there are good and bad aspects. You get to go to a lot of different places but it's also difficult to make friends and get settled.
usr : That does sound hard for me. I'm really shy around new people.
sys : (Information) Me too. But the upside is you can pretty much choose your own hours
usr : How did you handle having to work with new people all of the time?
sys : (Self-disclosure) To be honest it was not all that easy. I tended to keep my head down a lot and just smile vaguely when someone made eye contact.
usr : That sounds hard. I don't know if I can do that. It feels like I'll never get a job.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) What about something that involves less physical contact? There's always gig work online.
usr : I wouldn't know where to start with that. I feel like m ost "online" jobs are probably scams.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I work on Amazon Mechanical Turk - if you're diligent you can make a fair few bucks there. Not sure it's a living wage though but you could try it
usr : I've heard of that. Thanks, maybe I'll check it out.
sys : (Others) Give it a go ..you've nothing to lose but your self respect :P

sys : (Question) True - I know different cultures do take different approaches to things and in some places talking about mental health is taboo
usr : I have no idea what to do.
usr : that's why I look for another support.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I would recommend giving counselling a go, even though you're not totally sure about it
usr : what if it doesn't work and cost a lot?
sys : (Information) Is it not possible to get it free? It is provided free in my country
usr : very costy here in the US
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Ah, you need to move here to the UK ;)
usr : also varying by the healthcare providers.
usr : I didn't know that the UK has such a good coverage.
sys : (Information) We don't have to worry about the cost of medication or counselling as we have socialised medicine
usr : can you please explain further about socialized medicine?
sys : (Information) Sure. Everyone pays a small percentage of their income - depending on how much they earn - and it goes to fund the NHS. Everyone is therefore eligible for free hospital treatment etc and we pay a standard amount (about ten pounds ie fourteen dollars) for a prescription, no matter which drugs we are gettign
sys : (Information) If I needed a heart transplant tomorrow it would be free :D
usr : I see. That's how South Korea manage healthcare too.
sys : (Others) Most of Europe do it that way. It works well :)
usr : However, the US healthcare system is totally different, so commercialized.
usr : that's why I look for supporters today.
sys : (Others) At least you'd be sure you'd be able to get help for your anxiety!
usr : sure thing!
| (Information) Alas yes, it's a very scary system. Too many people suffer cos they can't get insurance or pay their bills |
### Dialogue background ###
The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an ongoing depression. The seeker says
"I have been suffering from general anxiety which gets worse at nights. Sometimes, I cannot pay attention to my work and feel of depressed, anxious, and so on. I look for some help to relieve from the current situation.". | sys : (Question) hi there how are you doing?
usr : Hi, doing OK. how are you doing?
sys : (Question) I am not so bad. Is there anything you'd like to talk about?
usr : I am having difficulty in controlling my anxiety and look for some support.
sys : (Self-disclosure) Ah I hear you, I have suffered bad anxiety for years. Have you been getting medical help?
usr : Not really, although I got some medication prescribed, however, am very afraid of getting addicted and reliance.
sys : (Information) Some anti anxiety medication can be addictive but if you're sensible with it you should be okay. Talk to your doctor?
usr : Yes, she suggested so. But I am not convinced.
usr : I see many friends getting relying on the medication even after they feel OK.
sys : (Information) What about counselling .. would you consider that? There is some very good therapy available
usr : I haven't thought about it...maybe not familiar with the circumstance.

usr : yes, it is so sad even if I have a health insurance from my workplace, but we have to pay from out of pocket, which is ridiculous.
usr : Do you have any other suggestions to resolve my anxiety issue?
| (Others) Yes it really is - I can imagine that that sends your anxiety sky high. We just don't have to worry about that - we pay in advance and no more than we can afford |

sys : (Self-disclosure) Hi Megan, sorry to hear you are feeling down. And having trouble falling asleep is something I go through from time to time, I'll share some tips I have if you like.
usr : That would be great, I'd appreciate some tips. Nice to know other people are in the same boat.
sys : (Question) Just curious how long have you been feeling down? And did you sleep okay before that?
usr : I think it's probably been around 6 months, but nothing that I can think triggered it. I have always had some problems with sleeping but it's never been this bad.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Okay so it sounds like your trouble sleeping has gotten worse since you started feeling low, and it's affecting your energy during the day then? Am I understanding you right?
usr : That's exactly it, yes.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Here are some things I do....no coffee after noon...
usr : Okay, I drink a lot of coffee so that's definitely something I'll try.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I exercise in the morning if I can, for me that's a walk, I always sleep better on days I walk....
usr : Okay sure, I work in a desk job so I reckon moving around and getting out could help.
sys : (Self-disclosure) I LOVE coffee....had to wean myself back to maximum 3 cups in the morning though
sys : (Question) Is your room quite dark?
| (Providing Suggestions) I got light blocking curtains....seems to help |
