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

"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"

"Lately I've started liking this guy in my friend group and he's really nice and everyone I know loves him but my best friend and it's been making me feel super guilty because she doesn't like being around him. I'm not really sure what to do about it though because I'm trying really hard to not pressure her and talk about him around her but I still feel like its causing a strain in our friendship"

"How do I deal with stress?"

"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"

"That's a good idea thanks"

"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"

"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"

"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"

"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."

"I’m doing better now, thank you!"

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

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

"I enjoy all of this information"

"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 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"

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

"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"

"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"

"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"

"Why do I feel the need to hide who I really am from my friends? I end up resenting them because they're talking to the person I pretend to be, and it feels fake because I'm fake around them"

"well, the overbearing feeling that everyone around is making you feel like you aren't good enough, like you're not deserving of the same kind of love if you're different"

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"Ok thanks for your help 😀"

"Sounds awesome!"

"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?"

"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"

"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"

"How do I make and keep friends?"
