Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"I want girls to like me"

"I feel bad talking to my parents, because I know they will still love me if I let my grades drop and they'll always support me, but it does feel like to much pressure sometimes, especially since my older brother was so good when it came to grades and academic performance. And I'm not close enough with any of my teachers to share this kind of stuff with them...that's a good way to look at it, thank you.”"

"I also want your opinion on something real quick: Which one should I get. Two lockets. One is a heart and the other’s an oval. They’re both the same amount. Which one should I get? The heart is the most popular, but oval is more sentimental to some?"

"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"

"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."

"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"

"i want to stay friends with the girl i just talked to. we work at the same place and she's the only one who's ever been very kind to me. i just feel like my friends are very manipulative of me so i feel like i should just tell them that i'm wanting to take a break and focus on my mental health and happiness"

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"I love music, thank you! Thank you so much for ur help"

"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"

"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"

"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"

"Thanks for the wonderful advice"

"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"

"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻‍♂️"

"hey thanks im sorry im just being bullied at school and i told the counselor and he's been helping me but it's only getting worse"

"Sounds good! I really appreciate you talking to me. It means a ton to me and I had a good time. Thank you. Have a good night."

"I’m doing better now, thank you!"

"I'll try to gain the courage to talk to someone irl, if not I'll come back to talk to you- it's easy to release over text honestly 😅"

"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"

"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."

"All my friends watch tiktoks instead of doing hw and brag about it, it's like, high school culture to just procrastinate and brag about having bad grades and no sleep and everything and it doesn't click to me. But yeah I love my friends but I wish I could meet some that are more like me."

"I listened to your most recent podcast about confidence, and I thought it was epic.🤙 I had a question that's related to it about something I've been dealing with recently. I already typed it up to explain the situation, and it is very long haha. Is that alright...?"

"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"

"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"

"my older sister and i got into an argument and she moved out so i had to step up as older sister and then my dad kicked my mom out so i feel like i have a lot of pressure on me"

"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"

"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"

"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"

"The bullying has been happening for a few weeks and I honestly don't know why. Me and another girl got a note directed towards me called me a f---ing retard and behind my back this kid called me an ugly a--hole. i try not to let it bother me though it's not super important cos (this sounds weird and far fetched ik) likeeeeeee why would he call me ugly unless he thought i have a higher opinion of myself then that, so he prolly knows i couldn't care less about his words like they hurt but i know he's verbally abused at home and i don't put up with it and he can't handle not having the right reactions from me."
