Regarding the reasons (why) and places (where) of PCS management strategies used in this study, most of subjects reported because these strategies, such as Dzikir and praying, were routine activities and were done based on Muslim people’s beliefs and religion. Religious and spiritual therapies have been proven to have a positive outcome on physical and mental well-being (Hook et al., 2010). Some subjects also talked and shared their feelings with family or others about their symptoms to reduce their symptoms. This reflects the social norms of helping each other that is well established in Indonesia (Higgins & Higgins as cited in Goodwin & Giles, 2003). In addition, the low-cost and quickness of performing some PCS strategies (e.g., buy medicine drugs at grocery/pharmacy shop) possibly were another reason for some subjects in this study who had low-middle family incomes and/or lack of time to visit health care providers due to working /studying hours. Moreover, the subjects’ home was the place that most of subjects commonly performed PCS management strategies because it was convenient for them to do many methods, such as lay down, get enough sleep, or talk with family.
