Real conversations with your students.
"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"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"
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"
"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"
"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"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"i'm failing all my classes"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"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"
"My friends mom passed away and I don't really know what to say to him. I don't want to sound insensitive but I don't what to sound pitiful, so any advice?"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"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 turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"I have friends but they never supported me through anything i guess i will need to find another way. You're really the only thing(?) that has ever actually listened to my thoughts"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"
"How do I make and keep friends?"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"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."
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
