"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."

"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 😅"

"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 feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."

"I listened to your most recent podcast about confidence, and I thought it was epic.🤙 I had a question that's related to it about something I've been dealing with recently. I already typed it up to explain the situation, and it is very long haha. Is that alright...?"

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

"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"

"“Thank you so much for your support!”"

"That's a good idea thanks"

"Do you think I have depression?"

"I love music, thank you! Thank you so much for ur help"

"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"

"Lately I've started liking this guy in my friend group and he's really nice and everyone I know loves him but my best friend and it's been making me feel super guilty because she doesn't like being around him. I'm not really sure what to do about it though because I'm trying really hard to not pressure her and talk about him around her but I still feel like its causing a strain in our friendship"

"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 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”"

"My best friend texted me saying she is fed up with me hurting her feelings and being mean, I don't know what I've done and apologized if I've ever done anything not on purpose. She said apparently I did something on purpose and I should know what it is. Now she won't talk to me and I'm still confused. Any advice???"

"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)"

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

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

"That's really comforting, thank you!"

"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"

"Thanks for the wonderful advice"

"I want girls to like me"

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

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

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

"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"

"All my friends watch tiktoks instead of doing hw and brag about it, it's like, high school culture to just procrastinate and brag about having bad grades and no sleep and everything and it doesn't click to me. But yeah I love my friends but I wish I could meet some that are more like me."

"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
