### Dialogue background ### The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about sadness regarding a/an ongoing depression. The seeker says "Car accident led to traumatic brain injury and PTSD having nightmares 2x a week.".
usr : Hello there. In the past 3 years, I have gotten into 2 car accidents. Neither of them were my fault. I sustained a concussion/traumatic brain injury and am experiencing depression and PTSD. usr : I have nightmares of crashing at least 2x a week. I am seeing a therapist, but due to the pandemic we are not meeting in person to do EDMR for my PTSD sys : (Question) Hello, I'm so sorry to hear that. That sounds like an awful lot to go through in a few years time, which now can feel like the time passes so quickly. usr : I have a traumatic brain injury that creates a lot of overstimulation in my life. I used to be social and now I can't be in a social setting for too long without feeling exhausted sys : (Question) Have you tried to talk to your therapist through video chat or is that something they offer? usr : Yes, I talk to my therapist every other week sys : (Others) That's great that they can offer that, I know it's very difficult to get regular care at the moment with the pandemic. sys : (Question) Do you have any family or friends close by or something that you can talk to if you feel like you need some extra support? usr : I do not have supportive or understanding friends and family usr : I have lost a lot of them in the last few years or have created boundaries because when I got into my first car accident, legit someone said "are you not better yet?" and another said "can't you just walk it off?" usr : When I got into my second car accident, people said "again? are you drunk?" usr : Even though neither were my fault, people were not understanding or asked how scary those situations for me were sys : (Reflection of feelings) I am sorry to hear that, people are very quick to judge so it's very unfortunate that you were treated that way. usr : After my first car accident, the tow truck guy was towing my car to my aunt's garage to hold for auto insurance appraisal. He said to my aunt "sorry for your loss" My aunt said "oh, she's right over there and alive" usr : the car accident was so bad the tow truck guy thought I had died usr : but even after seeing my car, friends and family acted like it was just something that happens to everyone. walk it off sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Wow, I can't imagine what the car must have looked like then for such a comment to be made. I'm glad that you here and despite going through that trauma that you are still going. usr : Thanks.
(Self-disclosure) A women fell asleep at the wheel in 2013 and hit me going through an intersection and totaled by car as well, but I had only had a concussion and pain I had to go to physical therapy for a short time, so I can't imagine how you must have felt.

Have you been in a scary car accident before or know anyone? Have you offered them kindness or you just dismissed them and thought it was their own problem? usr : That sounds scary. And is extremely unfortunate.
(Restatement or Paraphrasing) I'm sorry that you didn't get the support you needed after your accidents because it's hard enough to go through the pain and trauma (mental and physical) to begin with and the support is much needed.

(Question) You are 100% correct. Have you looked into any support groups at all or tried to connect with anyone with similar experiences through social media?

(Self-disclosure) I do understand how it feels to be gossiped about - that has happened to me more than once and it is really painful.

sys : (Question) Hi, how's life? usr : good, feels better now sys : (Question) I am glad to hear it. Is there anything you'd like to talk about? usr : about my experience with a friend who stopped communicating sys : (Self-disclosure) Yes I hear you on that, that happens to me rather a lot of the time. Can you tell me more? usr : usually we discuss issues or good news, anything day to day, suddenly i felt i am kept in the dark, while other friends in the group were aware of the problems faced by the friend sys : (Question) That does not sound good. Do you feel that it is someone specifically who is blocking you out? usr : not blocking me out,but i felt that I am not considered close enough to discuss problems or personal issues sys : (Others) Well, trust has to come with time... it cannot happen instantly. Perhaps you are being too hard on yourself? usr : I was trusted before, but not now sys : (Providing Suggestions) Sometimes you just run up against people who are not trustworthy themselves. It's best to just ignore these toxic people! sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Please know that it is NOT your problem, it it's their's! usr : i understand that. but i feel lonely when friend says i am having issues, i dont want to discuss with anyone, but other friends get to know of the issue and tell me about it in a casual conversation. i feel when some other had got to know of it, why it could not have been discussed with me sys : (Self-disclosure) I do understand how it feels to be gossiped about - that has happened to me more than once and it is really painful. usr : i feel sorry for the friend that the trusted ones have not been able to keep up and at the same time, i was not considered trusted one, where i would have kept it to myself sys : (Providing Suggestions) Perhaps you should consider getting some new friends? Are there any societies or anything that you could join? usr : i like your suggestion. i have started to do prayers and study more texts of my interest and this had surely given me a boost and I have now accepted the friend as it is. usr : not really thinking too much of it, just accepting it as it is and moving on with my routine sys : (Providing Suggestions) That sounds like a really positive outlook. Make a resolution not to let toxicity into your life in this coming year? sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I hope I have been able to help you a little and set your mind at rest. I wish you a very happy New Year! usr : yes, thank you and happy new year to you as well
(Others) goodbye and thanks for talking

Hopefully, things will take a turn for the better.
(Affirmation and Reassurance) I'm confident that it will.

I feel bad when I fall behind, and then I'm fearful of getting back in touch with her.
(Self-disclosure) Whenever I have a large project and lose motivation, I set my goals on paper, then break it down into smaller bites. For example, I will make sure I work one hour on certain days, or call a friend, I generate ideas to keep me on track.

(Reflection of feelings) Yes, I sometimes feel guilty and then don't want to face the music, but actually the best thing to do is recognize you are NOT the first person she knows that got behind. So she is surely experienced with people who need some encouragement. She is the BEST person to go to, actually.

(Self-disclosure) It has always helped me. For example, you can break it down into 4 weeks, then each week write your goals -- maybe put call Advisor or go stop by every week, but I would put that first for the first week.

(Information) That is why a time line is good. For example, you make a goal that you will work on your reference and citation page for one hour, after that, you are DONE, If you have time at the end, you can revisit it. The hour is my suggestion, you make your own. lol THAT way, you don't get caught going on and on for 6 hours to make it perfect. One hour is reasonable.
