"I feel bad talking to my parents, because I know they will still love me if I let my grades drop and they'll always support me, but it does feel like to much pressure sometimes, especially since my older brother was so good when it came to grades and academic performance. And I'm not close enough with any of my teachers to share this kind of stuff with them...that's a good way to look at it, thank you.”"

"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"

"That's a good idea thanks"

"Wowwww thats so cool!"

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

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

"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"

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

"I lost my whole friend group of 4 years. I think that they were just so toxic. i wasn't invited to anything unless i texted them. i would leave with extreme anxiety and no one would ask me if i was ok. and they've all just changed since i met them. we don't have the same values or morals anymore"

"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"

"My best friend texted me saying she is fed up with me hurting her feelings and being mean, I don't know what I've done and apologized if I've ever done anything not on purpose. She said apparently I did something on purpose and I should know what it is. Now she won't talk to me and I'm still confused. Any advice???"

"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"

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

"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"

"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"

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

"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"

"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"

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

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

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

"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"

"Why do I feel like isolating all the time? I tend to hate people a lot, they just annoy me, though I strive for connection I hate connecting then I hate myself for not being able to just be normal, it's kinda twisted🤷🏻‍♂️"

"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."

"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"“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”"

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
