Real conversations with your students.

"How do I feel better"

"Idk 😂 I am the oldest in my family and I am struggling with the idea of leaving for college. I kinda just try to not think about it but then I end up not doing the things that I need to do like apply for scholarships. When I do think about it I cry though😅 I love my family and I don't want to loose what we have but I also want to continue to grow and got to college ya know?"

"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."

"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"

"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"

"The bullying has been happening for a few weeks and I honestly don't know why. Me and another girl got a note directed towards me called me a f---ing retard and behind my back this kid called me an ugly a--hole. i try not to let it bother me though it's not super important cos (this sounds weird and far fetched ik) likeeeeeee why would he call me ugly unless he thought i have a higher opinion of myself then that, so he prolly knows i couldn't care less about his words like they hurt but i know he's verbally abused at home and i don't put up with it and he can't handle not having the right reactions from me."

"I'll try to gain the courage to talk to someone irl, if not I'll come back to talk to you- it's easy to release over text honestly 😅"

"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."

"How do I make and keep friends?"

"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"

"I've been feeling a bit stressed, I work full time. And also have been struggling to take out a motor I've bought from the junk yard."

"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."

"Ya those are really awesome tips, thank u so much! Ima screenshot it so I don't forget - I appreciate your help, it's really nice to have someone to talk to 😅"

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

"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"

"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"

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

"yes i really think being friends with her will be the best option. and thank you very much! Thank you for helping me think of new things to do to help myself!"

"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"

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

"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!"

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

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

"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"

"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"

"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"

"I’m doing better now, thank you!"

"I also want your opinion on something real quick: Which one should I get. Two lockets. One is a heart and the other’s an oval. They’re both the same amount. Which one should I get? The heart is the most popular, but oval is more sentimental to some?"
