Real conversations with your students.
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"Wowwww thats so cool!"
"How do you get rid of a sore throat?"
"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"
"Sounds awesome!"
"You're welcome! 😉 But thanks to you too 😁"
"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.”"
"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"
"“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”"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"yes i really think being friends with her will be the best option. and thank you very much! Thank you for helping me think of new things to do to help myself!"
"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"
"All my friends watch tiktoks instead of doing hw and brag about it, it's like, high school culture to just procrastinate and brag about having bad grades and no sleep and everything and it doesn't click to me. But yeah I love my friends but I wish I could meet some that are more like me."
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"I have 3 F's and I'm super stressed because I'm normally a straight A student"
"How do you get your teachers to like you?"
"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🤷🏻♂️"
"Bro a lot. Too much for a text i can barely speak what i need to say"
"Lately I've started liking this guy in my friend group and he's really nice and everyone I know loves him but my best friend and it's been making me feel super guilty because she doesn't like being around him. I'm not really sure what to do about it though because I'm trying really hard to not pressure her and talk about him around her but I still feel like its causing a strain in our friendship"
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."
"Well thank you amazing human too! It's so awesome that you take time to talk to strangers and brighten their day through this program. Keep it up! Have a great day"
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"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?"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"I'm dealing with the suicide of a family member- how do I cope?"
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
