Real conversations with your students.
"Do you think I have depression?"
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with 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!"
"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"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"I get bullied a lot"
"I listened to your most recent podcast about confidence, and I thought it was epic.🤙 I had a question that's related to it about something I've been dealing with recently. I already typed it up to explain the situation, and it is very long haha. Is that alright...?"
"thank you, you too!!"
"You too, have a great rest of the day😁"
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"How do I deal with stress?"
"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."
"I like that, I think that’s a good point, thank you for your input"
"it's all good!! just been thinking ab school & life in general. it's all stressful"
"You've been so helpful"
"My boyfriend broke up with me"
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"
"Thank you so much for listening, sometimes I just feel like nobody is listening or understands."
"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."
"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."
"My friends say I talk too much, any tips on how to talk less?"
"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?"
"How do I make and keep friends?"
"this is actually helping me a lot😂 so 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"
"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"
"How do I make a paper airplane?"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"That is true. I'm just happy that I'm able to help him"
