You: "[{\"role\":\"user\",\"content\":\"It seems like you have been having a number of difficult emotions lately, such as sadness, devastation, and lack of energy. Your most recent conversation with the therapist suggests that your recent breakup with your boyfriend has caused significant distress, and you are exploring different thoughts and feelings around that. In addition, you talked about concerns related to confiding in a supportive friend, who you feel may have been offended due to not revealing the full story. The therapist is exploring with you some reasons why you might feel hesitant to share, and how it may be impacting your ability to get adequate support and care.\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I understand how that could be triggering and evoke feelings of dissatisfaction or disappointment on your part. It seems like his emotional reaction can contribute to a difficult or challenging conversation that may lead you to be concerned about how you deliver information to your friend, which might cause you undue distress.\\n\\nOne helpful approach may be to talk to your friend about how you genuinely feel about their strong emotions when you need help. You may want to communicate your thoughts and feelings from a personal perspective to help your friend understand how to support you in the best way possible. Keep in mind, communication is a two-way street, so it's important to make space for how your friend might be feeling as well. \\n\\nIn general, sharing your thoughts and feelings in a compassionate and constructive manner could help mend the miscommunication between you two, strengthen your bond, and foster a care-based relationship in the long run :).\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"He is not this kind of person who love considering in my shoes\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I can tell that his behavior feels presumptuous and inconsiderate to you. Perhaps having an open and honest conversation can help him better see things through your perspective, which might make him more mindful of his words and emotions towards you in the future. \\n\\nStarting a conversation around how his emotional expression leaves you feeling could be a conversation starter for bringing more empathy and compassion into your relationship with him. It may be helpful for you to validate his perspective, offer your thoughts on how his behavior made you feel, give him a chance to share his feelings, and suggest ways in which you can both work to build trust and understand each other better. \\n\\nRemember that relationships require work from both parties to make them thrive - you are so capable of taking the driver's seat in how you navigate this situation whilst always preserving your boundaries and your emotions' well-being.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"No. I don't want\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I respect your decision and trust that it is for a valid reason. At the same time, I would also like to remind you that you do not have to go through what you're feeling alone. Talking about your feelings with a trusted confidant, such as a friend, a family member, or a professional therapist can provide you with additional support and care. I am always here if you change your mind or want to discuss other things that are on your mind. You are never alone, doing the right thing by saying \\\"no\\\" is your right, respecting yourself and listening to your needs is just as critically important as supporting others.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"Yes!

It's understandable that this makes you feel sad.\\n\\nIt's important to note here that you are not blaming or attacking him; rather, you are sharing how his actions make you feel. This is not only valid, it's also critical in encouraging your friend to develop greater consideration for your emotions. Yet, the challenge here is navigating and compromising what may seem like compounding distress, while trying to maintain a healthy and care-based friendship.\\n\\nMay I ask if you would like to share more about specific incidents that make you feel this way? Such exploration can help shed more light on what's at play here and find practical solutions together that could improve your well-being and the friendship, altogether.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"I started a project and then I just don’t want to say I was him at the beginning. It was three weeks ago. And now I want to asking about their know I’m the structure of the company because I think he knows more about it and then he just really I’m happy about I don’t tell him I didn’t. I didn’t tell him what the project where is it then just suddenly ask him this this question actually and I told him in between but he’s still remember always want to give opinions on something actually I don’t want his opinion it’s really bad feeling I I feel depressed\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I can understand that there is a lot of frustration and stress piling up here. From what you're saying, it seems that when you first decided to mention your project, you had already started and it is only now that you have the confidence to discuss your work with him. And, despite your attempts to include him, your friend consistently seems to interject with his opinion about your endeavour. \\n\\nIt might help to remember that you are entitled to make your own decisions when it comes to your project. It's at least important to know that you may have triggered your friend by going off and working on the project without taking the time to inform him earlier on. That by itself can create some insecurities that arise from playing catch-up and having others step in your creative space. \\n\\nGiven all the misunderstandings thus far, do you mind stating your needs directly to your friend and tell him how his actions make you feel? Doing so may allow you to set the most valuable boundaries that both suit your needs and mainstay effective communication in the collaboration.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"No!!!!!!

It seems based on what you're saying that you feel like you know your friend's behavioral patterns well enough to anticipate his responses. All I'm here to do is provide support and perspectives to consider, but ultimately the decision is up to you on how you choose to communicate with your friend.\\n\\nIf you don't feel comfortable expressing your feelings and boundaries to your friend directly because of your assessments of what your friend is like, it might be worth considering how your friend's behavior affects you, and alternative communication styles or venues that may better suit your needs and personality. Not every method works for every interpersonal situation or every person, so you can choose what strategies works best for you and your values.\\n\\nIn the end, it's about your mental and emotional well-being: do what's best for you and seek out other supportive relationships that would care for you unconditionally.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"I still feel sad\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I'm sorry to hear that you're still feeling sad.

Alongside this exploration, building routines and a proactive self-care behavior can alleviate depressive symptoms and enhance your emotional resilience.\\n\\nIn the meantime, always remember that you have positive qualities and potential to make meaning, develop meaningful relationships in your life, and to grow and undertake new learnings or experiences whenever you wish to take such steps.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"No it is about my friend\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I'm sorry for the misunderstanding earlier and am glad you decided to share more about the situation.\\n\\nSo, it's clear to me now that you're feeling sad because of your friend's behavior that is making you feel upset and depressed. This is undoubtedly a challenging situation to navigate, and I want to remind you that you don't deserve to feel this way. \\n\\nIf you're comfortable, we can try and work out why your friend's behavior is making you feel this way. Could it be because you feel he is not giving you enough support or because he has been judging you? Alternatively, is it because he is not listening to you and is more interested in sharing his own opinion instead? Moreover, do you feel that being upfront to him upfront would make things better, or make them worse?\\n\\nOnce we better understand these underlying needs and emotions, it would be viewed as beneficial in assisting you with improved coping mechanisms and/or bringing enhanced awareness or insights into how specifically to let him know how his behavior is impacting you and bolster effective communication to strengthen your friendship.\"},{\"role\":\"Me\",\"content\":\"Judgement\"},{\"role\":\"Therapist\",\"content\":\"I hear you, and it's completely normal to feel upset if you feel like your friend is judging you. When we feel judged, it often signifies that our friend is dismissing or not seeing the whole picture about our feelings, perspectives, and experiences, making it that more difficult for us to be vulnerable.\\n\\nIf you feel that he is indeed judging you, I'm wondering if you've tried talking to him about how you feel? Would it be worth expressing to him that judging or critiquing you are not helpful in dealing with a difficult situation? Perhaps taking this sort of approach can put your friend in a position to shift his focus away from judgments and towards supporting you in a manner that is better suited to the needs mutual to the two of you. \\n\\nNotwithstanding all this, it is also worth reflecting internally and understanding situations that birth insecure feelings. Beating around the bush only fuels our imposter syndrome, insecurity and self-doubt. Self-confidence does a lot of magic in building relationships, so loving yourself more and embracing growth through being communicative in those feelings towards your friend could furthermore improve coherence in your end as a person.\\n\\nFinally, I recognize that working through judgments and healthy communication skill acquired with friends can be a demanding process, but small progress is filling in more correlated long-term findings of genuine companionship, simply celebrate other milestones and be patient in the process!\"}]", ```undefined``` 4. assistant: Dear lovely friend, In this therapy session, you shared a range of difficult emotions that you have been experiencing recently, including sadness, devastation, and a lack of energy.
