Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"No worries, monster texts are usually the best 😊 That is really helpful actually- I'm a visual learner, and that is a good image. Do you have any suggestions on how to get back to the inner circle? I get so caught up in the dregs I forget how to get out"

"I’m feeling nervous"

"I want girls to like me"

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"

"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."

"What do you do if nobody likes you"

"I totally agree thanks!"

"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"

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

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

"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"

"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"

"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"

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

"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."

"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"

"i'm failing all my classes"

"I miss my dad, he seems to be the only one who calm me down lately. And i'm stuck in my room breaking down while trying finishing assignments before the quarter ends so i don't have a bad grade, and i just need him to be here."

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

"I have a question, I have a friend who hasn't been making the best choices and so I've been trying to stop being friends with her how do I do that without hurting her feelings?"

"Quite a bit, a lot has changed for my recently, I told my parents about wanting to disassociate myself from their religion, and that's been just difficult because I'm trying to figure out what to believe, I recently gave up pornography as well, and it's been such a struggle without it, I've had an addiction to it for a few years now, so everyday life just seems much harder than usual, and as the end of the quarter nears my schoolwork is just ridiculous, so it's been quite hard to feel happy these past couple weeks"

"How do I deal with stress?"

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

"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"

"How do I feel better"

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

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