usr : Hello! Life is treating me fair, what about you?

usr : Hi there, I'd love some help
sys : (Question) Great! What’s going on?
usr : I've been struggling with sleep over the last few months, and it's making me tired during the day.
usr : I have been finding it hard to stay asleep, and wake up tossing and turning constantly.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Lack of sleep will definitely make you tired during the day! Is there something bothering you that causes you to stay awake during the night?
usr : I can't think of anything particular, but my mood has been low generally for the last wee while which I imagine is probably the cause. I'm so tired during the day but as soon as my head hits the pillow at night I'm wide awake.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Well it sounds like you’re tired enough for sleep, but you’re still wired and can’t get the sleep you need.
usr : That's exactly it. Do you have any advice on what I can do?
sys : (Question) Are you getting any physical activity in during the day to make body more willing to cooperate?
usr : I'm working in a desk job so spend almost all day sitting down. That could be part of the problem.
sys : (Self-disclosure) I’ve found that physical activity helps me to get to sleep even when I’m troubled mentally. Another option is to slow your brain down so that your mind is relaxed. That is much harder for me though!
usr : That's a good idea. I could try go out for a walk either before or after work as a starting point and see if that makes a difference.
sys : (Information) That sounds like a good plan! It also helps to make sure that it’s dark and very quiet. Surprisingly enough, when they did research on sleep disorders they found that a lot of people just needed quiet and darkness.
usr : Have you tried lavender? I have heard pillow or room sprays can be good for sleep.
| (Information) Yep, I’ve tried a LOT of things. I’m currently struggling with this myself. I’m even trying out melatonin, tryptophan, and even CBD (not stoney weed oil)! So far no success, but I’m still trying! |

sys : (Reflection of feelings) Ah, so I hear you saying that one of the things that you are struggling with is finding affordable childcare?
usr : Isn't the affordable part but finding a daycare open on the weekend at all. I don't want a private person. I would feel more comfortable with a daycare setting.
sys : (Question) What are your objections against a private person? Is it that you feel you could not trust them? Do you have any family members who could help?
usr : I have no family that can help. Yes, its me not trusting some random person. In a daycare their cameras and others being around makes me feel more comfortable.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Could someone come to your home perhaps? You could set up your own cameras there. And you could make sure to get someone with excellent references
usr : I wouldn't even know where to begin to look. Any suggestions?
sys : (Information) You might be able to find good advice on local parenting forums. There must be other people there who are in the same situation.
usr : Where would I find a local parenting forums? I'm not very tech savy so I'm lost on all of that.

### Dialogue background ###
The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an job crisis. The seeker says
"I need a job but finding one that doesn't require weekends is almost impossible. There are no day cares in my area that watch kids on the weekend so that is another delima.". | sys : (Question) Hello there, how is life treating you at the moment?
usr : It is treating me pretty well. How about you?
sys : (Question) I can't complain :) Is there anything specific that you'd like to talk to me about today?
usr : What are you hobbies?
sys : (Self-disclosure) I like to listen to people's problems. I am training to be a counsellor. What would you like to talk about?
usr : That's a unique interest. How much longer do you have before you are a counsellor?
sys : (Question) About 12 minutes. Would you like to tell me what is on your mind at the moment?
usr : Do you have any kids?
sys : (Others) No I don't. I am here specifically to help you with problems that you might be facing at the moment. Do you have any problems at work, for instance?
usr : I have a problem with finding work that doesn't need me to work on the weekend.
