"Kind of because I don't know where J belong"

"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"

"What do you do if nobody likes you"

"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"

"I’m feeling nervous"

"I have funeral I'm going to, ACT stuff is being shoved in my head, I have 4 college classes to keep up on, skills USA is coming up and I've been nominated to participate, and I have two jobs"

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

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

"“Thank you so much for your support!”"

"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"

"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"

"Idk 😂 I am the oldest in my family and I am struggling with the idea of leaving for college. I kinda just try to not think about it but then I end up not doing the things that I need to do like apply for scholarships. When I do think about it I cry though😅 I love my family and I don't want to loose what we have but I also want to continue to grow and got to college ya know?"

"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"

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

"Thank you so much for the help and advice!"

"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"

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

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

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

"The bullying has been happening for a few weeks and I honestly don't know why. Me and another girl got a note directed towards me called me a f---ing retard and behind my back this kid called me an ugly a--hole. i try not to let it bother me though it's not super important cos (this sounds weird and far fetched ik) likeeeeeee why would he call me ugly unless he thought i have a higher opinion of myself then that, so he prolly knows i couldn't care less about his words like they hurt but i know he's verbally abused at home and i don't put up with it and he can't handle not having the right reactions from me."

"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"

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

"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?"

"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"

"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"

"What can I do to improve my mood?"

"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."

"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 have a math test tomorrow and that's the only class holding me back from my 4.0 and if I don't do good I'll lose it"

"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"
