Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"

"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"

"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"

"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"

"How do I feel better"

"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!"

"Soo, the other day I got into a really heated argument with my best friend's mom, because they kinda make my friend feel down. I went to confront her, but it turned into an argument. I said some things I'm not too proud of, and wrote her an apology note, but um. I still feel sick from what I said."

"Thank you for being here for the students, it's great to have a person to talk to. Here's a little expression of my gratitude in video form (the audio is a little quiet so turn up the volume a little)"

"thank you, you too!!"

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"I have a math test tomorrow and that's the only class holding me back from my 4.0 and if I don't do good I'll lose it"

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

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

"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻‍♂️"

"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."

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

"“Thank you so much for your support!”"

"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"

"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"

"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"

"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"

"I’m feeling nervous"

"How do I make and keep friends?"

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

"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"

"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"

"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:("

"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."

"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"

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