Real conversations with your students.
"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"
"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 is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"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 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"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"Thank you so much for listening. Glad I could make your day. I dont feel comfortable talking about this with people. I am just more private of a person I suppose."
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"That's a good idea thanks"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"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"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"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!"
"yeah he's this guy i met thru my friends family. & we almost dated but then he ghosted me & i think he's still on & off w his ex. he plays w my feelings bc i saw him yesterday for the first time in over a month & he acted like we were still talking & everything & it was weird. so i'm not sure if o should move on or keep hoping he'll choose me"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"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"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"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"
"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."
"i'm failing all my classes"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
