Real conversations with your students.
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"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...?"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"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"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"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 😅"
"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"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"I get bullied a lot"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"I have a math test tomorrow and that's the only class holding me back from my 4.0 and if I don't do good I'll lose it"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"I feel bad talking to my parents, because I know they will still love me if I let my grades drop and they'll always support me, but it does feel like to much pressure sometimes, especially since my older brother was so good when it came to grades and academic performance. And I'm not close enough with any of my teachers to share this kind of stuff with them...that's a good way to look at it, thank you.”"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"I don’t enjoy my life anymore.I mess everything up. I dont like it. My life is painful and since then I've had 2 suicide attempts. Been like this since mid 2019"
"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"
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"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."
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
