Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"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."

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"

"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"

"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"

"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."

"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"

"I’m doing better now, thank you!"

"I just dont rlly have anyone i can talk or relate to. Idk just feeling lonely and a little overwhelmed."

"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"my older sister and i got into an argument and she moved out so i had to step up as older sister and then my dad kicked my mom out so i feel like i have a lot of pressure on me"

"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"

"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 enjoy all of this information"

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

"“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”"

"I totally agree thanks!"

"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

"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"

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

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

"Do you think I have depression?"

"My boyfriend broke up with me"

"thank you so much! i will reach out if i need to 🥰"

"thank you! i'm kinda stuck right now & i don't know what to do about this boy! i really like him & we've dated in the past but needed to break up to work on ourselves. we just recently decided to try again because obviously we still like & care for each other! but last night, i found out while we were broken up he did some bad things that he shouldn't have! he regrets it & says he was forced into it. at the end of the day you are responsible for the decision you make & no one can 'force' you🤷🏽‍♀️ i've been thinking about this all day & it makes me sick:( i know it shouldn't affect me this bad because we were broken up but i don't know if i can move past this! he's told me he is sorry SOO many times but it just hurts me:("

"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."

"i'm failing all my classes"
