それでvsそこで
Can somebody please explain me the difference between それで and そこで?
My teacher told me that Sokode can be used with verbs but not with adjectives or expression of intention, as orders or requests.
The fact is that in the examples I saw tere weren't those differences (or at least I couldn't perceive them).
The examples I saw are:
・ゆうべはお酒を飲みすぎた。そこで、薬を飲むことにした。
それで、今日は頭がいたい。
・今朝頭が痛かった。そこで、医者のところへ行った。
それで、アルバイトに行けなかった。
・明日電車のストライキがある。そこで、授業には行かないことにした。
x そこで行きません。
Thank you!

それで means like, that's why~
そこでmeans like, therefore,~
There is not much difference.
The above one is like a phrase when you want to explain or say a reason why you do or did something.
The below one can be used when you want to explain or say a methid to figure out some solutions.
