Conversations

Real conversations with your students.

"Thanks for the wonderful advice"

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"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"

"Will do๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ‘"

"No worries, monster texts are usually the best ๐Ÿ˜Š That is really helpful actually- I'm a visual learner, and that is a good image. Do you have any suggestions on how to get back to the inner circle? I get so caught up in the dregs I forget how to get out"

"I just got rejected by a girl ๐Ÿ˜‚"

"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"

"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 ๐Ÿ˜…"

"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"

"I have funeral I'm going to, ACT stuff is being shoved in my head, I have 4 college classes to keep up on, skills USA is coming up and I've been nominated to participate, and I have two jobs"

"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"

"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)"

"Iโ€™ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, theyโ€™re quite comforting."

"0 - Iโ€™m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes 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."

"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."

"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"

"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"

"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"

"my older sister and i got into an argument and she moved out so i had to step up as older sister and then my dad kicked my mom out so i feel like i have a lot of pressure on me"

"That's a good idea thanks"

"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"

"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"

"These tips will probably help a lot for now - I'd love to stay in touch, and I'll reach out if I'm struggling again (probably sooner rather than later ๐Ÿ˜…) thank you so so much"

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

"this is actually helping me a lot๐Ÿ˜‚ so thank you !"

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

"โ€œI'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome โ€"

"Iโ€™m stressed, Iโ€™m taking the ACT in 6 days"

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