usr : Honestly, in the past I have been a lot lower than I am now. I really just hope I am able to stay strong for as long as i can right now
usr : Honestly i do the same thing a lot. Songs with a lot of emotion that i can belt out
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) You are certainly self-aware. Better off than most people!
usr : i will have to find somewhere i can properly exercise my awful vocals lol
sys : (Self-disclosure) Ah! I like pop songs from the 60's :-)
sys : (Self-disclosure) Ha! The car is always good!
usr : honestly its because i have been hospitalized due to my mental state. i try to be as self aware as possible now. i just hate the feeling of being blindsided.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) Have you tried The Smiths? Band from the 80's. They are my go to for when I am feeling low.
usr : i will give the throwbacks a try today. I do get down with a few of the older bands thats for sure
sys : (Reflection of feelings) To be blindsided is a violation of trust.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Have you spoken to her about it at all, or is that not your jam?
sys : (Information) It's ok. A lot of people are non-confrontational. Society tells us we should be able to express our boundaries. Not everyone is comfortable with that and that is ok.
usr : we literally just talked about it an hour ago. she says she doesnt know what she wants and she doesnt know how long but she doesnt want to be away from me right now. which i feel just isnt fair. i feel like no one can just pick and choose when they want someone around.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) But that puts more responsibility on you for your feelings. Sounds like you have coping skills for that.
usr : i know. with COVID this is so much harder. i may just take a long walk and try to focus on myself, because it seems like our future is in flux and it seems like it could go either way.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) You're right. That is not fair. You are feeling conflict and abandoned/not-abandoned.

The following is a conversation between a supporter and a seeker about depression regarding a/an breakup with partner. The seeker says
"Its not even a break up, my girlfriend wants space after 5 years, she wants to rent a room on her own without me, and it feels over.". | sys : (Question) Hi! How are you today?
usr : Could be better, the info i put for my scenario, just happened this morning.
sys : (Question) Something unexpected happened today?
usr : No actually, in fact today seemed to be starting better than any day this week. I support whatever she wants but right after Christmas is hard
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Holidays can add pressure to our "normal" situations.
sys : (Question) Did you find that your normal coping mechanisms were not as helpful today?
usr : Yeah, December has been hard on everyone. I know things will get better but its hard finding positivity when I feel so negative.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) Sounds like your support is not appreciated.
usr : Usually coping is either eating a ton of food or smoking marijuana, but with the holiday money is tight. I am listening to emo pop music from the 2000's now to help.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) Music definitely helps!

usr : I’m just trying to pick up the pieces and look to be positive.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) That's an excellent place to start. It's hard but I believe that you can do it.
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Do you have any family or friends that you've been speaking to about this?
usr : Thanks for the encouragement. That means a lot.
usr : Any suggestions on how I can get my mind off of it?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Do you have any hobbies? I found that refocusing my energy into something I love doing really helped to bring my mood up.
usr : Great advice. I think I’m going to start up taking yoga again and catch up on some books I’ve been wanting to read.
sys : (Reflection of feelings) Yoga is an amazing stress reliever. I practice myself! I like your game plan and I think you'll start feeling the results sooner than you think.
usr : I think I’m going to lay low on dating for a while.
sys : (Affirmation and Reassurance) I completely understand. You'll know when you're ready again and it's great to take things at your own pace. All that matters is to do things when you're ready to.
usr : How long do you think I should take a break for?
| (Self-disclosure) Honestly, that will end up being up to you. With my last big breakup, I didn't date for almost a year until I met someone. I would suggest at least a month or so to take some time for yourself and focus on yourself and what makes you happy so when you are ready to date again, you have a stronger sense of self. |

usr : Yes I feel like my friends just don't care about me much at all.
sys : (Restatement or Paraphrasing) You saying that your friend does not care about you any more. Is that correct?
usr : Yes, when we get together all they want to do is talk about themselves. When I raise something that is bothering me they just ignore what I say and go back to what they want to talk about.
sys : (Others) That's not good. You must be feeling left out.
usr : Yes I feel left out and unsupported by them.
sys : (Question) Any particular reason they are doing such thing?
usr : Well I think they don't care about me and are just selfish about their needs.
sys : (Question) In that case, should you consider them as your friends?
usr : Well they are the only friends I have and I have known them a long time. Do you think I should stop being friends with them ?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) If someone is not friendly they are not real friend. You need to find someone who will stand by you no matter what..
usr : Oh well that makes me feel sad too. I will be saying goodbye to some long friendships. Do you think that is the only answer ?
sys : (Providing Suggestions) Ok.. how about hosting them in your place for a gettogether..
usr : Ok how do you think that would help me ?
sys : (Information) They might open up if you are hosting .. people are generally nice to the host..
usr : Yes that is true, it's a good idea. I could also take the opportunity to tell them how I am feeling.
| (Question) Good.. let's try that.. Anythign else I could help you with? |
