Real conversations with your students.
"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"
"That's really comforting, thank 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."
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"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...?"
"I’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"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"
"yes i really think being friends with her will be the best option. and thank you very much! Thank you for helping me think of new things to do to help myself!"
"Thank you so much for listening. Glad I could make your day. I dont feel comfortable talking about this with people. I am just more private of a person I suppose."
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"I get bullied a lot"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"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 😅"
"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"
"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."
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"Thanks for the wonderful advice"
"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"“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”"
"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"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
