Real conversations with your students.
"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"
"Sounds good! I really appreciate you talking to me. It means a ton to me and I had a good time. Thank you. Have a good night."
"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"
"Soo, the other day I got into a really heated argument with my best friend's mom, because they kinda make my friend feel down. I went to confront her, but it turned into an argument. I said some things I'm not too proud of, and wrote her an apology note, but um. I still feel sick from what I said."
"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 😅"
"I'm stressed with my grades still. Normally I have all A's but I have a C in math that I've been trying to get up but I don't get the unit I missed"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"thank you, you too!!"
"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 feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"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!"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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 friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"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 😅"
"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻♂️"
"I also want your opinion on something real quick: Which one should I get. Two lockets. One is a heart and the other’s an oval. They’re both the same amount. Which one should I get? The heart is the most popular, but oval is more sentimental to some?"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"i'm failing all my classes"
"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."
