Real conversations with your students.
"How do I make and keep friends?"
"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"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"Sounds good! I really appreciate you talking to me. It means a ton to me and I had a good time. Thank you. Have a good night."
"Sounds awesome!"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"
"Idk, family life has gotten a little better for him, but his sisters make him feel worthless, and when his parents get after him, they yell at him so much, he feels like cutting. I always manage to make his feel better, but, I really just don't like his mom the most. She manipulates him to fo what she wants, and it just breaks him"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"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 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?"
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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"
"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"
"Okay so uh I've been thinking a lot about suicide recently, about how there isn't really any point to doing anything because you're just surviving to be ruled by someone else - I made a suicide poem and like know how I would do it and where and what I would dress in but I know I won't do it if that makes any sense? Idk what to feel"
"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."
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"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?"
"well, the overbearing feeling that everyone around is making you feel like you aren't good enough, like you're not deserving of the same kind of love if you're different"
"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"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
