Real conversations with your students.
"yeah he's this guy i met thru my friends family. & we almost dated but then he ghosted me & i think he's still on & off w his ex. he plays w my feelings bc i saw him yesterday for the first time in over a month & he acted like we were still talking & everything & it was weird. so i'm not sure if o should move on or keep hoping he'll choose me"
"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?"
"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."
"idk. i just get sad randomly sometimes like my depression will just come and hit me out of nowhere when i'm feeling fine. and my doctor thought i might be bipolar but the psychologist said i wasn't so yeh. idk i'm just kinda weird lol"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"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)"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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 really comforting, thank you!"
"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"
"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"Will do😀👍"
"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"
"I'll try to gain the courage to talk to someone irl, if not I'll come back to talk to you- it's easy to release over text honestly 😅"
"“Thats a good idea! Ive never tried that. Usually each day I just get a 1-2 hour nap...Alright i will definitely have to! Thank you so much”"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"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"
"Sometimes people don't tell me things because they don't want to hurt my feelings,but the fact they don't tell me hurts my feelings. What should I tell them?"
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
"That's a good idea thanks"
"i'm failing all my classes"
"I enjoy all of this information"
"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"I’m stressed, I’m taking the ACT in 6 days"
