"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"

"yeah he's this guy i met thru my friends family. & we almost dated but then he ghosted me & i think he's still on & off w his ex. he plays w my feelings bc i saw him yesterday for the first time in over a month & he acted like we were still talking & everything & it was weird. so i'm not sure if o should move on or keep hoping he'll choose me"

"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?"

"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"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.”"

"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"

"i'm failing all my classes"

"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"

"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."

"Thanks for the wonderful advice"

"Will do😀👍"

"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"

"I’m feeling nervous"

"How do I make and keep friends?"

"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"

"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."

"I miss my dad, he seems to be the only one who calm me down lately. And i'm stuck in my room breaking down while trying finishing assignments before the quarter ends so i don't have a bad grade, and i just need him to be here."

"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"

"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"

"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"

"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"

"Wowwww thats so cool!"

"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"

"That's really comforting, thank you!"

"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"

"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."

"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"

"I get bullied a lot"
