This is European PT, from a psychology patient questionnaire:
Os funcionários desta instituição, quando eu estou com dores:
1) Ajudam a arranjar transporte para ir tratar dos meus assuntos
2) Incentivam-me a confiar na minha capacidade para continuar a funcionar
3) Incentivam-me a participar nas actividades
4) Ajudam-me com tarefas o que me permite tratar dos meus assuntos pessoais
5) Aconselha-me a **recolher** para atenuar a intensidade da dor
Any ideas on an English synonym for "recolher" in this context?
Thanks in advance.
