Real conversations with your students.
"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"
"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."
"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 just got rejected by a girl 😂"
"You've been so helpful"
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"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)"
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"I want girls to like me"
"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"
"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?"
"I have funeral I'm going to, ACT stuff is being shoved in my head, I have 4 college classes to keep up on, skills USA is coming up and I've been nominated to participate, and I have two jobs"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"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."
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"Thank you so much for listening. Glad I could make your day. I dont feel comfortable talking about this with people. I am just more private of a person I suppose."
"idk. i just get sad randomly sometimes like my depression will just come and hit me out of nowhere when i'm feeling fine. and my doctor thought i might be bipolar but the psychologist said i wasn't so yeh. idk i'm just kinda weird lol"
"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"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’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"I’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
