Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"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"

"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 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"

"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."

"I turned in the test today, wish me luck."

"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

"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."

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

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

"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!"

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

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

"What can I do to improve my mood?"

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

"I have been feeling just really down"

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"I don't feel an intimate connection to anyone in my life and being in the general vicinity of people gives me extreme anxiety."

"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"

"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"

"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"

"I want girls to like me"

"I’m having major body image issues, and I can't focus on school because all I think about is how ugly I am"

"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."

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

"I have friends but they never supported me through anything i guess i will need to find another way. You're really the only thing(?) that has ever actually listened to my thoughts"

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

"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."

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