Real conversations with your students.

"I enjoy all of this information"

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

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

"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"

"How do you get your teachers to like you?"

"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"

"How do I make and keep friends?"

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

"I totally agree thanks!"

"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"

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

"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."

"I lost my whole friend group of 4 years. I think that they were just so toxic. i wasn't invited to anything unless i texted them. i would leave with extreme anxiety and no one would ask me if i was ok. and they've all just changed since i met them. we don't have the same values or morals anymore"

"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"

"Well for one I'm just sad a lot of the time, I guess we could call that depression at this point, and I often act happy and good natured, and I'm trying to transition away from the religion of the masses here in St George, but I don't expect any of them to be able to understand, so I keep it to myself. Whenever I talk to them I feel like I'm constantly filtering what I really want to say because they wouldn't be ok with it"

"Quite a bit, a lot has changed for my recently, I told my parents about wanting to disassociate myself from their religion, and that's been just difficult because I'm trying to figure out what to believe, I recently gave up pornography as well, and it's been such a struggle without it, I've had an addiction to it for a few years now, so everyday life just seems much harder than usual, and as the end of the quarter nears my schoolwork is just ridiculous, so it's been quite hard to feel happy these past couple weeks"

"Okay so uh I've been thinking a lot about suicide recently, about how there isn't really any point to doing anything because you're just surviving to be ruled by someone else - I made a suicide poem and like know how I would do it and where and what I would dress in but I know I won't do it if that makes any sense? Idk what to feel"

"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"

"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"

"I’m doing better now, thank you!"

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

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

"I’m feeling nervous"

"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"

"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"

"i'm failing all my classes"

"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"

"Soo, the other day I got into a really heated argument with my best friend's mom, because they kinda make my friend feel down. I went to confront her, but it turned into an argument. I said some things I'm not too proud of, and wrote her an apology note, but um. I still feel sick from what I said."
