Situation: Not sure how to explain that I want out of marriage

user: Hi

assistant: Hello! How are you today?

user: Ok I guess I do not know how to tell my husband that I am lonely and I want out of the marriage

assistant: Oh, that sure is a heavy subject and a heavy thing to be on your mind.

user: He is not one you can talk to he usually just brushes things off

assistant: So you have tried to discuss your loneliness with your husband before?

user: Yes he tells me it’s just in my head and I could just go out with him, but he drinks then to much so I do not like going out with him

assistant: I am sure that is frustrating! Does he drink at home as well or just when you go out?

user: Just when he goes out I do not go with him I do not drink and drive And he hangs with some obnoxious people

assistant: Would a date night at home with take-out and a movie just the two of you be an option?

user: He would go to sleep , and then he thinks I am crazy he says we are no kids anymore that need to go on a date we are married

assistant: Do you think you both might be open to talking to a marriage counselor?

user: I want that but I doubt he will talk he tells me he has no problems I have them, and all it does is I doubt myself I turned this situation in every direction and I just am not able to find a solution

assistant: Well, what about you finding a counselor for yourself who could help you with your own self-care? Perhaps it could be a start and then he/she could help you end your marriage if you still want to. It took me awhile to learn my own value and how important self-care is.

user: You know what I like that idea Maybe you are right I might get then some self esteem as well again

assistant: I know from experience that our self esteem suffers when we're in an unhappy marriage. It takes a lot of courage to seek help so I applaud you!

user: Thank you you are very kind

assistant: I'm glad I could help and I wish you the best of luck!

user: evening

user: i lost those books, I cannot even explain, how it happen

assistant: So you have lost some books? Were they important to you?

user: where will I g et almost 3 thousand dollars It is too painful

assistant: I do not know .. have you considered taking an extra job on the side?

user: school, should just give me enough time to find the books

assistant: Do you have any idea of where you lost them?

user: allow me to clear myself later, it is a fucking thing

assistant: I am sorry, I do not understand what you mean

user: I am trying to find that out, I packed them inside one bag , may be someone carried the bag or I misplace them

assistant: Try not to worry, it is entirely possible that someone has found them and handed them in to the authorities. You might still get them back!

user: i need enough time to look for the books, but school is not ready to listen to me

assistant: That is really not fair of them. Is there a higher authority you can take your case to?

Emotion: anxiety
Problem: job crisis
Situation: Need a second job to pay off credit card bills

user: hey

assistant: Hello, how are you today?

user: I'm good, busy I need another job to pay more bills

assistant: It seems you are having a difficult time with your finances. Is that correct?

user: yes somewhat. i can pay it off within 2-3 years without a second job. id like to pay it off faster though

assistant: I'm sure it will take dedication and hard work, but I bet you can do it!

user: I think so. Im doing mturk for a second job right now. it helps some. i don't know about getting another job

assistant: I've been in your shoes and also feel that's a good way to add a little extra income. It can really add up if left to built and used towards a specific goal.

user: I agree 100%. Been spending it on new clothes and toiletries lately to stock up for the covid shutdown. the extra money helps alot

assistant: It definitely can help. Perhaps you could have a separate way of using some of the money to go towards some of the other bills you would like to pay off? Maybe designate a certain percentage for what you are using it towards now, and the rest to other bill concerns.

user: i currently do that. it's hard to have the patience to pay it off. i hate having debt hanging over my head. i like to have nice things though and they cost money

assistant: Yes, and I have found this can be a good way to provide for the extra luxuries we like, without taking away from money that's used towards household bills.

user: absolutely. i make sure all of my household bills are paid every month. i think it will get better once these debts are paid off. i needed a lot of new things at once since the old had worn out.

assistant: Have you tried to use some of the scripts that can be added that allows you to catch hits that are hard to get on Mturk? They can be very helpful. Also, there are forums that have all kinds of useful information for workers.

user: no i haven't tried those yet do i have to pay for those scripts?

assistant: You might find it useful to do a little research and add them as extensions to Chrome or whatever browser you use. They are free and pretty simple to use.

user: So I could make more money on mturk than I am now by using those?

assistant: They have helped me in being able to get a bit more extra income. The scripts will continually try to grab the hits for you and then put them in your queue if they catch them. It's easier and faster than trying to grab them over and over. The forums can a large amount of help too. Perhaps try MTS. They also can show exactly how much you end up making per hour, filter by monetary amount of hits, etc

user: oh wow, thank ya! I'll look into that MTS is a script? Which script should I use?

assistant: Of course, I hope it can be of use too you! One I use is Mechanical Turk Suite, which is an extension. I think you can look up as a search for extensions, scripts etc. Or Mturk forums and find out tons of help!

user: Thank ya! I'll check it out

assistant: You're welcome! Best of Luck!

user: Thank ya! Have a good night. Bye

assistant: I think you have it. You too.

user: but there are so many thinggs to do and ideas i have

assistant: Of course! It can feel so stressful when we have all these little things we want to do but don't know where to start!

assistant: Hey, well that's okay! starting is half the battle, so that's an accomplishment right there!

user: thanx that helps cause i start feeling defeated

assistant: have you tried maybe using a timer or making a list to help keep you focused on decluttering one area at a time? Of course! It's easy to be hard on ourselves, but just the fact that you are trying is so important!

user: u know what i bought a timer and it came in today!hopefully it will help!

assistant: Oh awesome! I am so glad! Maybe trying that out could be useful!

user: i have no type of supportin my life and it really does effect me thanx for all your positively

Emotion: sadness
Problem: ongoing depression
Situation: I just feel generally down.

assistant: Hello, what can I help you with this evening?

user: I am feeling very depressed lately. Like a constant pressure that i don't know exactly what it is

assistant: Depression is extremely rough to deal with, I'm very sorry to hear you're going through that.

user: I think the days getting shorter makes it worse.

assistant: Oh yes, less light during the day makes the days seem compacted and suffocating

user: Do you have any tips on how to overcome it?

assistant: I believe there are special lamps that you could get to help. I personally have been trying to get up a little earlier in the morning and enjoy my coffee with the sunrise and a scroll through Instagram I also already have to schedule and routinize my day because I work and go to school from home, so I make sure to give myself breaks where I literally must get up and leave my desk, be in another room for a little while.

user: Yes, i like to be up to enjoy the mornings but i am also hard to get woken up I like to stay up, but when it's time to get up i dread it Bad cycle

assistant: Sure, that's understandable. There are opportunities throughout the day to get a little more vitamin D, you just have to make sure to give yourself time to enjoy them.

user: Time is the fire in which we burn.

assistant: Now that is intractable

user: Lol...yes it is The pandemic heightens all our awareness of time and mortality

assistant: Sometimes, to me, the enormity of the universe is calming to my anxiety. Being assured that I mean absolutely nothing is nice sometimes.

user: And drives the civil unrest which makes me feel anxious and insecure

assistant: Not in a scary, better-off-dead kind of way, but in the way that a galaxy is a slow moving explosion. I'm a flea to the universe.

user: Yes i find that a strangly comforting thought

assistant: ... then you have to wonder, what are fleas thinking?!

user: They have the luxury of instinct without having to "think" at all

assistant: God, tell me more, lol

user: They just be fleas. Fleas gonna flea.

assistant: Galaxies gonna spiral.

user: I worry too that the U.S. government has no idea what it's doing And the people at large are all losing their mental health

assistant: Yeah they have kicked the can down to local governments, local governments kick the can down to the citizens. It's absurd. No on wants to take responsibility for taking responsibility. It's a very uncertain situation and it's a psychological reality that when we don't have physical or metnal security, it's extremely hard for a human being to progress through stages in life or learn new skill as well or at all

user: I guess it's like you said before, we can only change ourselves

assistant: So everyone's plans are canceled for the year, plus no one has any idea when the shit's going to end, so not unlike a dog at the vet, the suffering seems interminable.

user: And focus on our own development True Well thanks for your support and kind words, ending chat now

Emotion: anxiety
Problem: ongoing depression
Situation: Just alot of different things have happened over last couple of months. It is the holidays and I cant be around family because I tested positive for COVID

user: Hi

assistant: hello, how are you feeling?

user: I am okay. Thank you

assistant: i'm okay too

user: Thats good. Do you have plans for the holidays?

assistant: not really, i will probably just relax. what about you?

user: Just hanging out at home with my husband and son.

assistant: how's your relationship with your family?

user: It is pretty good. We all get along good. No issues

assistant: glad to hear so!

user: How is your relationship with your family?

assistant: it's overly alright but i don't really get along with my father

user: Oh i am sorry to hear that.

assistant: don't worry, it's okay i am used to it

user: Has the Pandemic affected your work life at all?

assistant: not really i've always worked from home. what about you ?

user: Not me so much. Business was slow for quite a while because nobody was really working. But it affected my husband, because everytime anyone in our house got sick he had to leave work becase his work didnt allow anybody to be there if anybody in there household was sick. So he missed quite a bit of work

assistant: that must have been really terrible, i hope you all are coping with that how did that make you feel?

user: It was nerve wracking because you never knew how long he was going to be out of work for. his work changed their policy about when he could come back everytime he was out

assistant: just from talking to you i can see that it was very stressing for you is he back to work yet?

user: oh yes it defintely was. he is out again because I just tested positive for COVID. So he will be out of work for two weeks

assistant: is there any possibility of him getting a vaccine? he seems to be testing positive fairly often

user: He has never tested positive. I tested positive. Just anytime you get any kind of sickness his work makes you take time off just in case you have COVID. He has been tested 3 different times and it has always been negative.

assistant: oh sorry for misunderstanding you

user: Thats okay

assistant: correct me if i'm wrong but sickness causes you nervousness?

user: most things cause me nervousness. i am a very anxious person. not sure why.

assistant: i am nervous at times too and i usually try to take a break and do something i find comfort in when i feel like that. i can't imagine how siffucult must be for you to feel like this often i'm sure you will be able to find a way to relief your anxiety

user: Yea i try to do that too. Most times its playing a game on my tablet or phone or something. it is very difficult feelling like this all the time. I am trying to not let things stress me out as much.

assistant: playing on your tablet seems like a good way to releive your stresss, do you find it effective?

user: yes most of the time.
Emotion: sadness
Problem: breakup with partner
Situation: I broke up with my partner because she was constantly neglecting me. She showed little interest in doing things together and I had enough of trying to please her. She ends up with a new guy just two weeks later.

assistant: how are yo

user: Good how are you

assistant: ok. thanks for asking. what on your mind

user: Just been having a rough time....recently broke up with my girlfriend.

assistant: sounds hard. are you doing anything to help

user: Trying to avoid thoughts about her, but every where on social media she is posting about her new guy. It is hard to escape the sadness.

assistant: wow. in our connected world it is hard to get away. do you want to tell me how it happened

user: Yeah it is. Well we have been having trouble staying closely connected since the lockdown. We tried to make time for one another, but it has been tough. I was the one who broke things off because I know longer felt much love coming from her. I felt neglected and I thought a break up was the best solution. I did not think she would pick up a new guy two weeks later. I was not prepared to deal with this kind of pain and it hurts.

assistant: It was wise of you to know your feeling towards the relationship and make a mature decision for the both of you. During this pandemic too. that must have been even harder.

user: Yeah it has been difficult and I know I will make it through. It is just difficult to get through break ups these days. Unless you disconnect you can't avoid the other person.

assistant: that's a good idea. Have you thought about disconnecting?

user: Yeah I was thinking of maybe organizing a hunting/fishing/camping trip with my buddies over winter break. That could help get me out of the digital world and would help me spend quality time with my friends.

assistant: nothing better than the outdoors wit h some friends. Fresh air can really clear the mind.

user: Yeah I think that is probably what I will end up doing. It will probably help the mental health of the entire friend group, but especially me right now.

assistant: perspective is found from looking at things from a distance. you maybe to close to everything right now to see the forest from the trees

user: Thank you for the help and the advice. I think I will follow through and make the trip happen. Any tips on eventually getting back out in the dating game in these strange times?

assistant: Again, I think you were the mature one that ended the relationship. It is hard to see her "move on", but you will do the same. covid has changed the environments to meet people though, and all I can suggest is to be patient. The world will get back to normal. and you will too.

user: Thanks I appreciate that. I can spend some time focusing on my career and relationships with friends before looking for another romantic endeavor. I appreciate your help with this situation.
