Real conversations with your students.
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"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."
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"How do I deal with stress?"
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
"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."
"Idk, family life has gotten a little better for him, but his sisters make him feel worthless, and when his parents get after him, they yell at him so much, he feels like cutting. I always manage to make his feel better, but, I really just don't like his mom the most. She manipulates him to fo what she wants, and it just breaks him"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"How do I feel better"
"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'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!"
"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"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"Quite a bit, a lot has changed for my recently, I told my parents about wanting to disassociate myself from their religion, and that's been just difficult because I'm trying to figure out what to believe, I recently gave up pornography as well, and it's been such a struggle without it, I've had an addiction to it for a few years now, so everyday life just seems much harder than usual, and as the end of the quarter nears my schoolwork is just ridiculous, so it's been quite hard to feel happy these past couple weeks"
"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."
"you're so right !! i'm kind of doubting the relationship because it has a lot to do w/ me trusting him!"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"Sounds awesome!"
