"I totally agree thanks!"

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

"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"

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

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

"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"

"i'm failing all my classes"

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

"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.”"

"I feel constantly disappointed about myself because I know I can do better, but I don't seem to be able to."

"I just got rejected by a girl 😂"

"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"

"What do you do if nobody likes you"

"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"

"What can I do to improve my mood?"

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

"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 very opinionated friends?"

"Okay sweet! there’s kind of a back story to it all to explain, as well as this being the first time I’ve gotten into this subject with anyone, so I’ll do that first if that's all good."

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

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

"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 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!"

"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"

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

"How do I increase self-confidence while performing or just stage fright in general?"

"How do I make and keep 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”"

"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"
