In this study, we define subjective experiences and positive experiences obtained through negative experiences as “self-growth feeling” and clarify the process of subjective experiences until students who have experienced school non-attendance in junior high school acquire a self-growth feeling. The study aims to explore new perspectives to give support to absentee students. Four high school students who experienced school non-attendance when they were in junior high school were interviewed. In the analysis, Trajectory Equifinality Model was used to model the subjective experience of the subjects in a format that maintained diversity and time base. Until the time they gained a self-growth feeling, the subjects had enjoyable experiences of being cherished and supported by people other than family members; the support of their mothers was the foundation, and they were aware of changes in themselves through their interactions with people around them. Therefore, we considered aspects that contributed to the self-growth feeling, including “enjoyable experiences,” “experiences of being cherished,” and the “awareness of changes in oneself,” from the perspectives of resilience, the “broaden-and-build theory” (Fredrickson, 2004), and social impact. It was suggested that positive experiences during the period of children’s school non-attendance when they are distressed, with support from people other than family members, and continued support after re-adaptation are necessary.
