Real conversations with your students.
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"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"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"Thank you for being here for the students, it's great to have a person to talk to. Here's a little expression of my gratitude in video form (the audio is a little quiet so turn up the volume a little)"
"i'm failing all my classes"
"Well for one I'm just sad a lot of the time, I guess we could call that depression at this point, and I often act happy and good natured, and I'm trying to transition away from the religion of the masses here in St George, but I don't expect any of them to be able to understand, so I keep it to myself. Whenever I talk to them I feel like I'm constantly filtering what I really want to say because they wouldn't be ok with it"
"You've been so helpful"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"How do I feel better"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"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"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"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"
"“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 don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."
"Do you think I have depression?"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"I was home from school for two weeks because I was depressed because my parents divorced this summer and I moved and haven't been feeling belonged at school"
"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?"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"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"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"Ya those are really awesome tips, thank u so much! Ima screenshot it so I don't forget - I appreciate your help, it's really nice to have someone to talk to 😅"
