sys : (Providing Suggestions) That is the worst. I ended up having to cut my mom out of my life.
usr : I wonder if I should do the same...
usr : My grand mother basically gave me a whole speech about how ashamed she is.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Sometimes it is for the best to set clear boundries.
usr : But who knows. Apparently my mom said she'll put the house in my name for all these things I did for her.
usr : Kind of annoying to be frank.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Is Grand mother ashamed of you or her daughter? I feel it should be her ashamed of her daughter.
usr : My grand mother is ashamed of her daughter
usr : I am kind of left with a weird circumstance.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) At least that is a good thing to come out of a bad situation.
usr : Only reason she has a house is because I helped. And if I leave it. Everyone in my family said I would be irresponsible to let my mom lose it.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I do not think that would have a reflection on you. It should only reflect on your mom.
usr : Yeah, they said they already know my mother is irresponsible.
usr : Instead they suggested I should provide extra financial security to myself or at least some future children.
usr : Grandma already is giving a home and 2 apartments but... I guess I am the only kid. Christ.
usr : My mom lost my om over 100k to be honest. It was crazy growing up to that
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) It may be nice to have a bonus house for the future. But even that comes with headaches. In the end you have to do what is best for you.
usr : Yeah. I guess boundaries are good.
usr : I left her without much help to be honest but I guess just hearing it frustrates the crap out of me.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Or sell it now and pocket the money to recoup what was lost.
usr : I would but it isn't even my property
usr : And mom needs a place to stay... sometimes I wonder if she just wants to be homeless
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) So she is just talking circles and not accomplishing what she says?
usr : More like she keeps talking about doing something crazy like have a police chase
usr : and how she doesn't care for anything
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Some people do choose that life to be free of responsibility.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Have you had a talk with her about seeing a mental health professional, She may be having some issues that would benefit from care.
usr : I tried to baker act her after she tried to call the cops on me randomly
usr : It ended up them asking dumb questions like if she knows what day it is
usr : letting her free
usr : somehow ending up with her getting herself hospitalized 2 weeks later for low hemoglobin.

sys : (Providing Suggestions) Have you had a talk with her about seeing a mental health professional, She may be having some issues that would benefit from care.
usr : I tried to baker act her after she tried to call the cops on me randomly
usr : It ended up them asking dumb questions like if she knows what day it is
usr : letting her free
usr : somehow ending up with her getting herself hospitalized 2 weeks later for low hemoglobin.
sys : (Information) Often police officers are not fully trained in helping mentally ill people, they only access if the person is a danger to themselves or others.
usr : yeah it sucks
usr : Tried to get her on disability but they just denied her
usr : She was brought up with bipolar depression before I was born. She said she just ran out the hospital..
usr : I don't know how she is just getting the consequences of that now
sys : (Information) A good first step is taking her to your local mental health provider. Or ask at a major emergency room where this is located as sometimes the places are hard to find.
usr : That was about 30 years ago
usr : Crazy they didn't stop her
usr : Well I do feel better. Thinking about boundaries. It has been less stressful being so involved.
sys : (Others) Without treatment she may just be getting worse.
sys : (Others) That is good to hear..
usr : I've heard she has a lawyer trying to straighten up the whole disability and tr eatment thing
usr : My girlfriend just won't let me stay out of it
usr : Saying my mom has no one and I would regret it if she just does something crazy
sys : (Reflection of feelings) That does make it difficult when a partner encourages you to engage in unhealthy behavior.
usr : Yeah. If it was up to me I would probably just be dead silent
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I suggest talking to your girlfriend about how it makes you feel when she insists you continue a relationship that causes so much pain.
usr : Yeah. That's a good point.
usr : Well I think the point about boundaries really stuck with me
usr : I feel so much better now

### Dialogue background ###
The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about anxiety regarding a/an job crisis. The seeker says
"My company is making people redundant and I am stressed.". | sys : (Question) Hello, how is your head or heart today?
usr : Hello, I would like to talk to someone about my situation at work.
sys : (Question) I hear you need someone to talk to. What is your situation at your work?
usr : My company is going through redundancies at the moment and I will not find out for another month if I am going to be included.
usr : I have a huge workload on at work and the bosses just keep piling more on top which makes me more stressed and anxious.
sys : (Self-disclosure) Being stressed and anxious is something I've experienced as well. I use breathing to help keep me centered, calm.
usr : Breathing calmly will not help pay the bills if I am made redundant. It's not fair, I cannot be made redundant if they keep giving me more work.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) That sounds tough. Just from chatting with you, I can feel how anxious you are.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) It sounds like you don't feel heard by your boss.
usr : Sort of. I feel they have no communication or empathy for their employees. How can a company who is making their staff redundant expect them to work harder?
sys : (Question) I have also felt unfairly treated at a workplace. Have you tried to talk to a human resources director or a company hotline?
usr : No, only my direct manager. Do you think that will help?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) I believe you deserve to be treated fairly. I hear that you also believe that you deserve to be treated fairly. Calling a hotline or talking to a human resource profession is a suggestion.
usr : I think that's a good idea, I will try that. What kind of things should I say?
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Expressing your feelings about the companies redundancies. Also, your feelings about the company having no communication or empathy for their employees.
usr : Ok thanks, i will do that.
usr : Thank you for your help and advice.
sys : (Others) You're welcome. I hope this message finds you well.
usr : Yes thank you.
usr : Ah one final thing, other than breathing how else do you recommend for handling anxiety?
| (Providing Suggestions) In combination with breathing, I suggest using a thought map to clear your mind. Also going for a walk can help you with your mental or emotional health. |

sys : (Others) Hi there, how are you today?
usr : So I'm sad because it is hard for me to find a job with covid and everything and no one is willing to hire me.
usr : I'm ok
usr : I'm just sad
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) That is really hard. I know COVID has had a huge toll on folks. Do you have a good support system in place to help during this trying time?
usr : I do I have my bf and family around
usr : I just want to start making a life for myself
usr : It's hard and I don't know what to do any ideas?
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) That's really great! Having a good support system is important right now. I understand it's difficult to find a job during these times.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Have you tried looking for an online only - remote position? Like some administrative work?
usr : I have but I am having trouble finding a call monitoring job
usr : I really would like to do that.
usr : Any ideas on where to look?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Where are you looking for jobs right now? Some of my friends have had some success by looking on LinkedIn or Idealist.
usr : Hmmm Idealist would be another great source
usr : I used Glass Door and Indeed
usr : Any other ideas?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) How about Craigslist? Not my favorite personally speaking, but might be worth taking a look.
usr : I will look into that as well
usr : Thank you for your help
usr : I am starting to feel somewhat better about my situation now
usr : Thank you
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I'm confident you'll find something! Hopefully you have some great self care practices in place that will help you through this time
usr : I do I hope u do too
sys : (Self-disclosure) I do - thank you for checking :-)
usr : So how are things for u during this lockdown?
usr : You're a Zebra to!! Yay! we're both Zebras together. :)
sys : (Self-disclosure) I'm an introvert / homebody so it's been fairly easy for me. I have a lot of projects at home that I enjoy doing (reading, puzzles, meditating, yoga, etc) that keep me busy. I was also, very lucky to be able to keep my full-time job so that keeps me fairly busy most days. But I like a change of scenery and do Mturk tasks for fun
usr : I'm the same way
usr : I do to and plus it gives u extra cash
sys : (Others) yes! not a whole lot honestly, but i like it.
usr : I just want this to be over with I want to go back to normal
usr : That is true though
| (Others) I agree! It would be nice to have more options of things to do. I do miss going to the library and reading or a museum. Hoping more people will start to wear masks and really start to take this seriously |

| (Reflection of feelings) I can understand your feelings right now, It's hard to ignore all those memories and moments |

usr : Probably living alone and being on my own.
usr : I don't really miss him honestly. I miss the comfort of having someone take care of me. We fell out of love awhile ago.
| (Providing Suggestions) Hmm, First of all stop being scared |
