Real conversations with your students.
"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."
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"I've been feeling a bit stressed, I work full time. And also have been struggling to take out a motor I've bought from the junk yard."
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"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'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"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"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"

"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Should I get help if I feel anxious most of the time?"

"Will do😀👍"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."
"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"
"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."
