"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"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"
"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’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"i'm failing all my classes"
"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"You've been so helpful"
"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 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 friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"I get bullied a lot"
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."
"I want girls to like me"
"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"I’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"
"No worries, monster texts are usually the best 😊 That is really helpful actually- I'm a visual learner, and that is a good image. Do you have any suggestions on how to get back to the inner circle? I get so caught up in the dregs I forget how to get out"
"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"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"thank you, you too!!"
"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"
