Real conversations with your students.
"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"
"Sounds awesome!"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"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 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."
"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?"
"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"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"I get bullied a lot"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"How do I feel better"
"I enjoy all of this information"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"Why do I feel the need to hide who I really am from my friends? I end up resenting them because they're talking to the person I pretend to be, and it feels fake because I'm fake around them"
"I totally agree thanks!"
"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!"
"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"
"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"
"How do I deal with stress?"
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
