So I think age and interests [are important], we both like gaming by chance, and, uh, that we did find common ground in that, and eventually his interests in philosophy, and certain way of thinking, that appeals to me a lot too, so I'm also very much into that myself, so that's where we found even more connection. So that philosophizing that was kind of uh .... a plus, so to speak. So we had a lot of shared interests.” Receiving social support Informational support coach 039 “I know, yes I haven't actually talked to him about that yet. I do try, yes what I just said, I am an authority myself sometimes, […] so I also try to show my side of the story, showing why a police officer sometimes does something to him, gives a fine, why he should better not do certain things. I say to [name participant] don't just go and urinate in the middle of the city you know against a tree, go to the toilet somewhere earlier because yes if a cop sees it he will get another ticket and then he will show resistance again and then he will be taken away again, that's what I do tell him.” Emotional support patient 003 “Yes, I was also able to share my story with her [referring to coach] from time to time [to get some relief] and not really in detail but still sometimes talk a little something off your chest […], what have I achieved yes that the depressive feelings were gone for a while.” Instrumental support patient 008 “…That there is someone at least who wants to assist me for part of it and just wants to take care of things for me.” Companionship support coach 030 “…He has missed just going outside with someone, […] for example very often he sits on a bench by himself and then he just goes and looks at people, he does that very often but he also likes to do it occasionally with someone, and I think there is more added value in that and also just the conversations, he is not often asked how he is doing.” coach 037 “[We are] walking around, sitting [in the] library, drinking something, drinking coffee you know occasionally walking around town […]. We didn't really have a clear plan about meeting up and doing something. [Making a plan in advance] that doesn't work for him.” Achieving meaningful change Lack of change patient 001 “Yes certainly, to make new arrangements with them [referring to coaches] again. To try again anyway. Because we haven't really done much yet, and if you stop now you better not start at all, and I'm getting better this way too. You do get somewhere else while I just sat at home for years, depressed and all. You get to know other people anyway, you go out with them. You keep going one step further, next time we'll go somewhere else.”
