Real conversations with your students.
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"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"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"Ya those are really awesome tips, thank u so much! Ima screenshot it so I don't forget - I appreciate your help, it's really nice to have someone to talk to 😅"
"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!"
"Okay so uh I've been thinking a lot about suicide recently, about how there isn't really any point to doing anything because you're just surviving to be ruled by someone else - I made a suicide poem and like know how I would do it and where and what I would dress in but I know I won't do it if that makes any sense? Idk what to feel"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"Sounds awesome!"
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"

"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"I have been feeling just really down"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"You've been so helpful"
"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"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"Thank you for being here for the students, it's great to have a person to talk to. Here's a little expression of my gratitude in video form (the audio is a little quiet so turn up the volume a little)"
"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"
"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"

"Ok I'm scared for my speech in leadership"
"I get bullied a lot"
"Guess what? I aced my test, 100/100!"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"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🤷🏻♂️"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"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"
