Sounds good all around." }, { "emotion": "afraid", "from": "patient", "value": "I was just scared because my parents and I had always been in rooms next to each other and now they were ALL the way downstairs. Thinking back it was a pretty silly thing to be afraid about." }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "therapist", "value": "Well, actually, I think that makes sense considering you were a kid and you were use to them being with you upstairs." } ]

It wasn't like me at all. I wish I could undo my actions." }, { "emotion": "guilty", "from": "therapist", "value": "I think many children including myself stole things before they were taught it was wrong to steel." }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "patient", "value": "That's true. I wasn't really a child though! I was at university! We all have little devils inside us, I suppose." }, { "emotion": "questioning", "from": "therapist", "value": "I would not beat yourself up over the mistake. We all make mistakes even when we are older and should know better." }, { "emotion": "acknowledging", "from": "patient", "value": "Thank you, that means a lot." } ]

[ { "emotion": "sentimental", "from": "patient", "value": "My mom sent me a package the other day that had a bunch of my old comics in it the other day.

The appointment is set for next week and I'm pretty nervous." }, { "emotion": "consoling", "from": "therapist", "value": "I hope it's nothing too serious.

I wish I hadd taken the time to do more with him." }, { "emotion": "sad", "from": "therapist", "value": "That's understandable, life goes so fast that it's easy to lose touch with people you care about.

At first I didn't want to but as I got better I started to love it." }, { "emotion": "content", "from": "patient", "value": "I never became the best player on the field by any means, but it was so nice to not fail completely. We just bought a pool because my children love swimming!" }, { "emotion": "questioning", "from": "therapist", "value": "We don't have to be the best to enjoy what we do right?" }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "patient", "value": "That's very true and I think it was the mental aspect that was the most encouraging for me. I was driven to succeed and I did it! It was very empowering." } ]

I tried playing when I was younger, but the other girls were mean" }, { "emotion": "questioning", "from": "therapist", "value": "I had a similar experience playiing little league baseball.

We have an infant daughter, but she goes to bed so early that I had a lot of hours of doing nothing in particular." }, { "emotion": "content", "from": "therapist", "value": "Thats the perfect time to just pamper yourself. I cherish those few hours every day!" } ]

Have you guys talked or did you immediately cut him off?" }, { "emotion": "devastated", "from": "patient", "value": "We talked long enough for me to tell him it's over. We can't come back from this, no matter how difficult it will be for me." }, { "emotion": "consoling", "from": "therapist", "value": "Man thats terrible, I hope you can forget about him and find someone better." } ]

[ { "emotion": "jealous", "from": "patient", "value": "A friend of mine recently had their bathroom remodeled, and it made me feel like mine looks terrible by comparison." }, { "emotion": "agreeing", "from": "therapist", "value": "That's reasonable considering how new stuff always looks great and how more fancy stuff may be available and cheap compared to when you made yours." }, { "emotion": "impressed", "from": "patient", "value": "Yeah, I just moved into my place last year, and the bathroom is quite outdated. After seeing his though, remodeling it has moved way up my list of things to get done." }, { "emotion": "acknowledging", "from": "therapist", "value": "That's good, it sounds like his bathroom motivated you to take yours to the next level. That's probably good for society." } ]

My mom irritated me so bad by doing that the other day." }, { "emotion": "agreeing", "from": "therapist", "value": "Yes, it's annoying! People should put more thoughts into it before they decide to be so opinionated..." }, { "emotion": "agreeing", "from": "patient", "value": "Agreed! My husband and I did a ton of research on a new puppy we were getting and she still found the worst article she could to act like she knew more than us." }, { "emotion": "agreeing", "from": "therapist", "value": "Oh, yes, I know. Some breeds get bad raps and people are so quick to judge! I used to have a pit bull who was a sweetheart!" } ]

We didn't know anybody here but we just had to believe it would turn out okay..." }, { "emotion": "questioning", "from": "therapist", "value": "Wow! That is a huge move! How long ago was that and are things going well? Do you miss Hawaii?" }, { "emotion": "nostalgic", "from": "patient", "value": "It's been almost 3 years and it's been ups and downs.

Both of my best friends moved several states away from me." }, { "emotion": "content", "from": "patient", "value": "I've always been content to just stay here.

Things break at the most inopportune times!" }, { "emotion": "annoyed", "from": "patient", "value": "Not yet, I'm working on it because it apparently has to be replaced.

Your dentist must love you." }, { "emotion": "sad", "from": "patient", "value": "I had such a sugar rush and then crashed hard after hah! I felt like I had to brush my teeth for an hour that night." }, { "emotion": "neutral", "from": "therapist", "value": "That's not surprising, but now your friend knows that you are the undisputed champion." } ]

It was getting very unsafe" }, { "emotion": "acknowledging", "from": "therapist", "value": "Oh no! That's awful. That could be dangerous too!" }, { "emotion": "confident", "from": "patient", "value": "Yes indeed. I stepped in to help not really knowing what I was doing. I screwed up at first a bunch but after all day working on it, I got it fixed!" }, { "emotion": "acknowledging", "from": "therapist", "value": "I bet your neighbor was very appreciative of all of your help. That would have been a daunting task for the elderly neighbor." }, { "emotion": "caring", "from": "patient", "value": "Yeah I just didn't want her or her grandkids to hurt themselves.
