I: So, in general, who are the people that you think will need counselling or help?
R1: I think is… people who have problems in their psychological aspect will need
counselling.

have negative emotions, and… he (she) doesn’t like to be somewhere noisy and bustling, he
(she) will prefer to be alone.
I: Ok…So the last two questions. First, if you notice your friend seems to be psychologically
not good or you suspect he (she) may have depression, what will you do?

look for a teacher that he (she) trusts and tell the teacher about him (her) problem.
I: Ok… So last question. So if you were the person who faces such situation, where you feel
different from your usual self, who will be the person that you are going to seek help from?

problem that I can’t solve, and I seek help from people who are proficient in these problems,
they give suggestions and helps. For me, this is counselling.

meet or seek help?

emotion in a good way, what will you do?

accompany them.
