Real conversations with your students.
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"Thank you so much. This program really is amazing!"
"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"
"I miss my dad, he seems to be the only one who calm me down lately. And i'm stuck in my room breaking down while trying finishing assignments before the quarter ends so i don't have a bad grade, and i just need him to be here."
"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"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"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"
"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"
"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."
"I get bullied a lot"
"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"
"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 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 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"
"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"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"hey thanks im sorry im just being bullied at school and i told the counselor and he's been helping me but it's only getting worse"
"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"
"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 enjoy all of this information"
"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"
"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"
"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’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
"Do you think I have depression?"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
