The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an job crisis. The seeker says
"A new supervisor is more controlling, doesn't trust me and is changing my work role and threatening my job. He's reducing my travel and opportunity to take additional hours and changing the direction of my current work projects. He's also from the Military and has an abrasive way of communicating with makes having conversations with him very difficult.". | sys : (Question) How can I help you today?
usr : Hi there. I'm seeking some support, maybe some advice in dealing with a situation at my work.
usr : I've got a new supervisor who is so different from my last one.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Sure, I see you need some support at work because your new supervisor is so different than your previous one
sys : (Question) What kinds of things are troubling to you?
usr : Yes. They have a Military background and bark orders, and change the way I'm working without being open to conversation.
usr : When I ask questions, they threaten my job. Telling me they "Don't have to explain themselves!" as they are my supervisor.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Wow, that sounds difficult with them being so militant. Have you been able to talk to any co-workers in a similar situation?
usr : Yes, there are two other people supervised by him. One of them is also Military and new him before hand, they seem to get along great.
usr : But my other co-worker is like me. Doesn't know what to do, or who to turn to.
usr : Sometimes the work environment is pretty hostile when we're just trying to continue projects that were started before he arrived.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) That sounds hard that it is so hostile at work when you trying so hard.
usr : Yea. But when he threatens and calls my insubordinate, I worry he might be making a case to remove me.
usr : I wonder if I should talk to the person above him, about it.
usr : But I worry they might just think I'm complaining because its different
usr : But it really is uncomfortable.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) It sounds like you worry about having your job taken away from you. Talking to someone above your supervisor may be a good solution.
usr : Its been 3 months since he started, I just wonder if its too soon.
usr : I'd hate to be seen as a complainer.
usr : And the person above him, is the person who hired him.
sys : (Self-disclosure) When I was in a similar situation I had to go to a higher supervisor and was helped a lot. It probably is never too soon, but could be too late if you wait.
usr : Thats true. I'm not happy at work, but I do love my job. I enjoyed it a lot before him arrived. But now I'm constantly thinking about finding a new job, or worrying about him pushing me out. Maybe thats what he wants, so he can bring in his own people?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I see you really like your job. Sometimes just taking a deep breath can help to calm stress.
usr : Thats good advice. I do need to do more outside of work to relieve the stress.
usr : I'll try to do that. Do you think I can speak to him about his tone and maybe explain that communication is much more relaxed?
sys : (Others) Do you think he'll be receptive to your communications if you speak directly to him?
usr : I think its worth a try, but I don't want him to think I'm being argumentative. Any suggestions on how to have that conversation?
sys : (Reflection of feelings) I can see that you worry about your boss seeing you as argumentative, but could you try it from the perspective of making your boss feel like he is in control?
usr : Making it his idea. That's a good tactic. I could try that.
usr : And maybe giving him time to understand the workplace as it new to him too.
sys : (Question) Is there anything else I can help you with today?
usr : I think you've given me some good advice.
usr : Thank you.
usr : I feel a little less anxious than I did.
sys : (Others) You are welcome.
usr : I appreciate it!
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I wish you well.
usr : You too. Good bye!

Her mom made her to do that for whatever wacky personal issue/emotions she refuses acknowledge and it's a huge bummer because I haven't seen her about 3 years and have small children so I can't really cross country to go visit too easily
| (Providing Suggestions) I am sorry to hear this. It sounds like she is being rather toxic. Have you considered getting professional help about this? Would she be prepared to address her issues too? |

sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) I am sorry to hear that. So, I gather that you and your loved ones are really not getting along right now?
usr : You could say that haha I haven't even seen her in 4 years and she's trying to turn my family against me due to an argument we had that long ago
sys : (Question) Okay which family member is that that you are talking about?
usr : insecure, narcissistic biological sister who a decade older than me
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I see. Family arguments are unfortunately very common so try not to worry too much about it. Do you really need to keep this person in your life though? If you're not speaking, why not just forget about her?
usr : Because I live in the same area as my parents and any get togethers we have I don't even want to go to so I don't have to see her and she has used that opportunity to turn anyone she can against me, I cut off contact back then too...
sys : (Self-disclosure) I am really sorry to hear this. I was in a similar situation with a family member a couple of years ago. I know how tiring it can be.
sys : (Question) Have you talked to any of your other family members about this?
usr : I talk to my mom and one brother about it, the other brother I have unfortunately decided to join in with the behind the scenes trash talk (only because he enjoys drama which she's full of) I never spoke much to the rest of my family anyway (they never could understand me even to a degree we could carry a conversation that isn't small talk jabber) so it's not much of a loss except for what she did today has me kind of P.O.d
usr : O ur father is where she got it from
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) What is it that she did today? I can hear the frustration and anger you are experiencing and I hope that I will be able to do something to help you
usr : Her daughter (who took more after my personality than hers) came into state and had stated she wanted to stay at her grandparents for the first few days but when she came she ended up going to her moms and when she came to the town we live in she had to bring her mom. Her mom made her to do that for whatever wacky personal issue/emotions she refuses acknowledge and it's a huge bummer because I haven't seen her about 3 years and have small children so I can't really cross country to go visit too easily
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I am sorry to hear this. It sounds like she is being rather toxic. Have you considered getting professional help about this? Would she be prepared to address her issues too?
usr : That's a huge H E double L lolol I don't love her or value her company enough to consider that, no. IN fact, I kind of want to solve it by beating the living daylights out of her face lol
| (Others) Well I do not think that that would be a good thing to do. That would be putting you in the wrong. |

usr : Which actually almost happened when we had that silly argument back when but she called our parents and had them intervene and lie for her uuuuuugh
| (Providing Suggestions) I think that you need to just totally back away from this relationship before something really bad happens. Can you try to just think that she does not exist and not obsess about her? |

usr : I certainly hope so. I wonder sometimes. I hope i haven't ruined my kids lives by leaving their father.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Some children may act out if they have trouble expressing how they feel. I would suggest having regular talks with them and being transparent.
usr : Yes we had a little trouble with my 8 year old. He thought i and his grandma chased his daddy away. He acted out a lot till we set down with him and explained what happened.

I think I got anxious last week when I had a tire go flat and took my car in to get it fixed. I found out I need all new tires and new brakes. Not easy on a fixed income. Plus I am widowed.
| (Providing Suggestions) I am sorry for that. Yea having a nest egg is ideal, but i know how hard it can be. I think with the extra cash and space it may be a big help to those anxiety issues. Do you drive a lot as it is now? |

"I am retired, but really need to go back to work to earn some extra money. My problem is that it is very difficult physically for me to wear a mask for longer than a few moments. In this time of COVID, I have no choice in the matter. It is causing me anxiety because I need the income.". | sys : (Question) Hello, how are we doing today?
usr : Hi. I'm doing fine. Just feeling a bit anxious.
sys : (Question) Would you want to go further into whats causing this anxiety?
usr : Well, I am retired, but in need of extra income to meet my financial obligations. It is very difficult for me, however, to wear a mask for longer than a few moments. Due to the mandates in my area, I would be required to wear a mask.
sys : (Information) Well, have you tried online platforms like MTurk?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) It can be bit tough to get into in the beginning, but with a decent amount of work and determination it might be able to help with your monetary problems.
usr : That is what I am currently doing, and it is helping some. I have increased the time I work on there, so that will help some. I would love a second source as well, however...just so I could really save some.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I hear you on that. I am disabled and the extra income helps a lot for my family. Unfortunately until the pandemic ends a part time job might not be in your best interest for now. Ebay flipping takes some time to get into as well but could help.
usr : Yes, I have thought of that, actually. I have quite a few items I would love to sell. I have never done it, though, so need to research how to ship items, etc.

usr : I actually don't. Only to the grocery store, or to visit my daughter who lives about 20 minutes away.
| (Providing Suggestions) Well at least you are not putting to much wear on them now. Have you checked with local governments for assistance? Even with things like medication? |

| (Information) Believe me never hurts to try. A penny you save on something else can be a penny that goes into your savings |
