Real conversations with your students.
"I actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"
"yeah totally! thanks for your help (:"
"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"
"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🤷🏻♂️"
"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 appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"How do I get rid of a friend that is mean and is taking all of my friends"
"Thank you, I love getting messages that make me stop what I'm doing and think about things that leave me in a more positive attitude than before!"
"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."
"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"
"Most definitely, I'm happy to hear whatever you've got to say"
"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"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so thank you !"
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."
"i don't know i just missed two weeks of school due to COVID and my grades are suffering and i can't find the motivation to work. I lose my 4.0 this year already to one A- and now i kinda feel like a failure"
"“I'm grateful for you, and my family. Thanks for being here for me!! You're awesome ”"
"That’s a great idea thank you, honestly, I really appreciate it.”"
"I don't really have any hobbies. I just work a lot. I work at a mexican restaurant i've climbed before but i don't do it often. I don’t really have motivation to do anything lately."
"That's really comforting, thank you!"
"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 a question, I have a friend who hasn't been making the best choices and so I've been trying to stop being friends with her how do I do that without hurting her feelings?"
"There's a lot on my to do list and I feel it piling up"
"Okay, thank you🤎"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
"How do I feel better"
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"I’m feeling nervous"
"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"
