Real conversations with your students.
"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 am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"I totally agree thanks!"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."
"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"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 just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻♂️"
"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???"
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"thank you, you too!!"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"Sounds awesome!"
"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"
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
