Real conversations with your students.
"You've been so helpful"
"I can't help in my classroom, we are online"
"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"
"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"
"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's really comforting, thank you!"
"What do you do if nobody likes you"
"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!"
"im sad i aint at school i wanna kill my self"
"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???"
"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."
"hey, so i have this friend who i don't want to be friends with anymore but i don't know what to do?"
"I appreciate it 😊most definitely👍"
"That’s good, I’ll try to do that today with my friends."
"i have another question. how do you feel good about yourself and things you are good at without seeming self centered?"
"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)"
"My boyfriend broke up with 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."
"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"
"Yes you too!! Thanks for helping me feel better"
"“Thank you so much for your support!”"
"0 - I’m super sad. What do you do if nobody likes you?"
"What can I do to improve my mood?"
"My sister has depression, what can I do to help her?"
"Ok thanks for your help 😀"
"I think you're a genius, you just helped me sooooo much, thank you."
"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"
"Why are boys so mean 😭😭Are all boys mean 😢"
"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"
"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"
