Real conversations with your students.
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"Well for one I'm just sad a lot of the time, I guess we could call that depression at this point, and I often act happy and good natured, and I'm trying to transition away from the religion of the masses here in St George, but I don't expect any of them to be able to understand, so I keep it to myself. Whenever I talk to them I feel like I'm constantly filtering what I really want to say because they wouldn't be ok with it"
"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"
"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!"
"I love music, thank you! Thank you so much for ur help"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"I was home from school for two weeks because I was depressed because my parents divorced this summer and I moved and haven't been feeling belonged at school"
"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"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"
"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"
"My friends mom passed away and I don't really know what to say to him. I don't want to sound insensitive but I don't what to sound pitiful, so any advice?"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"i want to stay friends with the girl i just talked to. we work at the same place and she's the only one who's ever been very kind to me. i just feel like my friends are very manipulative of me so i feel like i should just tell them that i'm wanting to take a break and focus on my mental health and happiness"
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"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"
"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🤷🏻♂️"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
