Real conversations with your students.
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"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."
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"
"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🤷🏻♂️"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"Do you think I have depression?"
"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."
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"How do I feel better"
"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 have tried to talk a little bit to my parents but I didnt like seeing them upset, plus they are already worried about me to much as it is, I dont want to add more weight on them anymore. And I dont trust the counselors anymore”"
"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 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?"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"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"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"I get bullied a lot"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"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."
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"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!"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"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:("
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
