Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"I lost my whole friend group of 4 years. I think that they were just so toxic. i wasn't invited to anything unless i texted them. i would leave with extreme anxiety and no one would ask me if i was ok. and they've all just changed since i met them. we don't have the same values or morals anymore"

"thank you, you too!!"

"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"

"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"

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

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

"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"

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

"i'm failing all my classes"

"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"

"That's a good thought, everyone has something to contribute, sometimes it's just hard to see my part when others seem to have so much more to contribute than I do, I appreciate your help, this program is a really great idea!"

"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???"

"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."

"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"

"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"

"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"

"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"

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."

"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."

"Thank you, I love getting messages that make me stop what I'm doing and think about things that leave me in a more positive attitude than before!"

"I enjoy all of this information"

"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"

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

"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"

"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"

"What do you do if nobody likes you"

"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"

"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"

"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"
