Real conversations with your students.
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"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"
"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."
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"thank you! i'm kinda stuck right now & i don't know what to do about this boy! i really like him & we've dated in the past but needed to break up to work on ourselves. we just recently decided to try again because obviously we still like & care for each other! but last night, i found out while we were broken up he did some bad things that he shouldn't have! he regrets it & says he was forced into it. at the end of the day you are responsible for the decision you make & no one can 'force' you🤷🏽♀️ i've been thinking about this all day & it makes me sick:( i know it shouldn't affect me this bad because we were broken up but i don't know if i can move past this! he's told me he is sorry SOO many times but it just hurts 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"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"How do I make and keep friends?"
"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, I love getting messages that make me stop what I'm doing and think about things that leave me in a more positive attitude than before!"
"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"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"I don’t enjoy my life anymore.I mess everything up. I dont like it. My life is painful and since then I've had 2 suicide attempts. Been like this since mid 2019"
"I don't really have any hobbies. I just work a lot. I work at a mexican restaurant i've climbed before but i don't do it often. I don’t really have motivation to do anything lately."
"i'm failing all my classes"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"Idk, family life has gotten a little better for him, but his sisters make him feel worthless, and when his parents get after him, they yell at him so much, he feels like cutting. I always manage to make his feel better, but, I really just don't like his mom the most. She manipulates him to fo what she wants, and it just breaks him"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
