"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"

"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'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"

"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"

"Do you think I have depression?"

"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?"

"I totally agree thanks!"

"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."

"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."

"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"

"That's really comforting, thank you!"

"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 think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."

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

"I’m feeling nervous"

"My boyfriend broke up with 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 😅"

"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!"

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

"“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”"

"These tips will probably help a lot for now - I'd love to stay in touch, and I'll reach out if I'm struggling again (probably sooner rather than later 😅) thank you so so much"

"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"

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

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

"How do I deal with stress?"

"Ok thanks for your help 😀"

"I get bullied a lot"

"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."

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"Idk 😂 I am the oldest in my family and I am struggling with the idea of leaving for college.

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?"
