sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) So to make sure I understand, have you caught your partner cheating?
usr : I haven't actually caught him myself.
sys : (Question) Has someone told you they suspect he is cheating?
usr : Yes, My best friend and my sister have told me.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) It is a horrible feeling when that seed has been planted in your head.
usr : Exactly and he denies it. I just don't know what to do or who to believe.
sys : (Question) I know you mentioned you want to believe him when he denies it, I guess the important question is what is making you have that shadow of doubt? Has he been unfaithful in the past?
usr : I know he cheated in the past on a previous girlfriend, but not on me.
| (Affirmation and Reassurance) And know I am not saying I don't believe you, I think your feelings are valid, and I just want to get the full picture |

| (Providing Suggestions) I think you may have answered your own question.

If you want my unprofessional opinion, I think your friends and family care for you, and they will be there to help you through this |

"I feel like I won't ever get a proper job and move out of my parents' home.". | usr : Hello
usr : Hello?
sys : (Others) Hello, How are you?
usr : I am okay
sys : (Others) That is wonderful to hear. How is life going?
usr : It's alright. A little stressful with my job crisis.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Oh I know how hard it can be to be stressed out. What is going on with your job?
usr : Well, I've been looking for a proper job for some time now and I just can't find one. I work online every day and it is not something that is stable.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Oh yeah, not being able to find a job can be pretty stressful. Have you checked online, on job websites?
usr : Yes. I have submitted hundreds of applications and I don't even receive an email on most of them.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Oh yes, that happens most of the time when applying for jobs. It's okay, you will definitely find one. Have you tried asking friends/ family? Maybe places that friends and family work at, have job openings.
usr : I've asked a few, but most of the people I know work retail jobs. I make more money than that working online. I just want a normal adult job, you know? I went to college, so it shouldn't be that hard.
sys : (Question) Of course! Everyone deserves to have a job that they worked hard for. What kind of jobs are you interested in?
usr : I like museum jobs or jobs that work with animals, but all of those require years of experience that I can't get because no one will hire me
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Oh okay, well while looking for job try not to put yourself in position where you take deep breaths and let your mind at piece. Patience is everything. Sometime in life we all have our patience tested, but that is OK because at the end the results are better than anything.
sys : (Others) I mean try to put yourself in that position.
usr : That is true. Maybe it just isn't the right time. Maybe I need to learn something before I find a job that I need to do
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Of course! Everything comes at a perfect time, and we have to learn to be patient, and while waiting we can indulge in other activities that we like.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) While doing your online job maybe you can work in activities that build experience for a job you want to do next time.
usr : I volunteer once a week with animals
| (Affirmation and Reassurance) That is a great idea! You are working hard and that hard work is going to pay off! Just try to relax and be patient, which can help with your stress. |

I know people get all crazy about their kids and sports. I agree that he's jealous but his daughter isn't really that good - didn't make the school team either. Should I talk to my friend alone first?
| (Self-disclosure) It depends on the depth of the relationship between the three of you. How long have you all been friends? |

| (Providing Suggestions) Yes, coaches are a great resource for life's dilemmas. Perhaps another option would be to casually mention something to him in passing, like at one your daughters games as to avoid any big blowups or emotional exlosions. |

sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) okay, then you are good for the most part. Now just some mental preparation and you will nail it
usr : I hope so
sys : (Others) I believe a little worry is good for an exam, however, too much of anything is never good. Practice what you will do in the exam room so you can save as much time as possible
usr : It'll be okay. I have a backup plan for after graduation anyways, its just not wanting to have to resort to that
usr : It's also intense doing this during COVID. We haven't gotten the normal learning environment for a young attorney in training. We just get a zoom link
| (Reflection of feelings) I understand your frustration, I had a discussion a few days ago about this. Online learning is ok but it can't provide you the same benefits and experience as in person |

The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an academic pressure. The seeker says
"I am struggling with my law school exam prep. I'm not sure if I can make it through law school". | usr : Hello
usr : Hello?
sys : (Question) Hello, how are you?
usr : Anxious. I'm not sure I can get through this semester
sys : (Question) What caused your anxiety? Is it because you don't understand your class?
usr : No I understand the course work, its just a high pressure environment. Everyone is ranked, so its competitive.
usr : it feels like everyone is secrectly angling to take each other down so they can get the good jobs
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I can understand how you feel being such competitive environment. However, the most important is your well being. I think as long as you do your utmost best, there is no need to stress over rankings
usr : The money investment is just so high. I don't want to get out of my 3L year and get a job making barely enough for the loan interest payment
sys : (Reflection of feelings) I think salary and growth takes more than just academic result. Take one step at a time, take care of your own health and this exam first
usr : I've always been hard on myself
sys : (Others) That's good and bad at the same time, you will always be motivated, however, if you push too much you will burn out yourself
sys : (Question) Have you reviewed all the materials needed for the exam?
usr : I know I can do it its just hard
usr : yeah, i think i got it
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) okay, then you are good for the most part. Now just some mental preparation and you will nail it

usr : It oddly makes it more competitive too because you don't get the chance to build a relationship with classmates the way we normally would
| (Question) are you close with anyone? You can ask around and see if they want to form a study group |

usr : That is a good idea, maybe that will help
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Or have a new haircut or something :)
usr : I like that idea too, I will give it a try
sys : (Question) Is it just your weight that bothers you about your appearance?
usr : No, I just dont like looking at myself in the mirror. I just feel ugly and gross
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I have a feeling that other people do not feel that way about you :)
usr : That is kind of you to say, thank you
usr : You have helped me quite a bit today, I appreciate it
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I think a lot of people do see themselves in a much worse light as others see them :) It's a human thing.
usr : Very true, thank you for the perspective
sys : (Question) So, what sort of clothes do you think you are going to buy? :)
usr : Possibly a new dress or two
sys : (Self-disclosure) Sounds like a great idea. I bought a fantastic maxi dress recently. Very flattering for those of us carrying an extra pound or two
usr : I love flowy dresses for that reason
usr : do you do anything else when you are feeling bad about yourself?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I like a nice facemask and a bubble bath, do you?
usr : I like doing my makeup and getting dressed up, even if I have nowhere to go
sys : (Providing Suggestions) That is a good thing to do .. great for the self esteem. Maybe buy some new jewellery too?
usr : I like the idea of pampering myself. That is something I don't do too often
usr : and I need to do it more. Perhaps I will feel better then
sys : (Providing Suggestions) You need to indulge yourself from time to time :) Get yourself a nice bottle of wine too. Though maybe not chocolate :D
usr : Haha, yes, perhaps not those :)
| (Others) Anyway I hope you are feeling a little better now ! Thank you for talking! |
