"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"

"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"

"How do I deal with stress?"

"These tips will probably help a lot for now - I'd love to stay in touch, and I'll reach out if I'm struggling again (probably sooner rather than later 😅) thank you so so much"

"That's a good idea thanks"

"I totally agree thanks!"

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

"I'm stressed with my grades still. Normally I have all A's but I have a C in math that I've been trying to get up but I don't get the unit I missed"

"You've been so helpful"

"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."

"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"

"Do you think I have depression?"

"That's a good thought, everyone has something to contribute, sometimes it's just hard to see my part when others seem to have so much more to contribute than I do, I appreciate your help, this program is a really great idea"

"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"

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

"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"

"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."

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

"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"

"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’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"

"I get bullied a lot"

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

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

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

"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’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?"

"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"

"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"
