Crisis Counselor: Have a great night and take care.

Caller: Thank you so much!

Crisis Counselor: Remember we are here 24/7 for support. If you ever need us don't hesitate to reach out. We're here for you and you've got this.

Crisis Counselor: Sounds good. I'm going to let you go to get started on a new poem. You've demonstrated tonight how much stronger you are over the bothersome thoughts.

Caller: I'm feeling calm and confident.

Crisis Counselor: It shows how much this means to you that you reached out for support tonight. How are you feeling now that we've been talking for a little bit and come up with some next steps.

Caller: Thank you so much for the positivity.

Crisis Counselor: That's great to hear. I admire how committed you are to working to manage the nagging thoughts.

Caller: Yeah I'll try it tonight.

Crisis Counselor: That's a smart way to cope with the thoughts - if you are able to get them out and on paper they don't have the power to cloud your mind anymore.

Caller: Yes. Writing my thoughts down always helps clear my mind. It's difficult in the beginning because I have to relive those feelings in order to put them on paper.
