Real conversations with your students.
"Do you think I have depression?"
"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 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?"
"“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”"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"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."
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"I’m doing better now, thank you!"
"Will do😀👍"
"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?"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"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."
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"I enjoy all of this information"
"thank you, you too!!"
"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?"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"“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”"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"I'm stressed with my grades still. Normally I have all A's but I have a C in math that I've been trying to get up but I don't get the unit I missed"
"I don't really have any hobbies. I just work a lot. I work at a mexican restaurant i've climbed before but i don't do it often. I don’t really have motivation to do anything lately."
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"That's a good idea thanks"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"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"
