"I am very sad and don't feel like attending class."

"Yeah, my aunt took a stroke, the doctors didn’t know why and it wasn’t looking very good. She had a severe brain bleed and their hope was that her brain would swell and stop the bleeding. But 12 hours later her brain was still bleeding. She had a 3% chance of pulling through but by 8 last night she was brain dead so they took her off life support and around 4 this morning she passed"

"Yea I'm so relieved now, thank you!"

"that sounds perfect!! thank you for your advice 🥰 i think i'm gonna do that"

"i'm failing all my classes"

"Man are u a real person? Also I am burnt out. But answer both questions plez"

"How do I deal with friends that keep fighting and get me in the middle of their drama?"

"thanks, that's really nice to hear honestly. I hope you have a great day"

"Okay, thank you🤎"

"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 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...?"

"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 actually just got my grade up from a C to an A-"

"this kid said he loves me and i don't know how i feel!!! like he's so sweet but i just can't say it. it's hurting my brain"

"I’ll give that a try, I appreciate the words of advice, they’re quite comforting."

"How do I deal with very opinionated friends?"

"I Don't know yesterday and today I just Felt sad when I woke up."

"I have a lot of family problems. My parents are getting a divorce."

"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"

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

"Your advice really helped! Now I feel that my friends want to be around me more. 🙂"

"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."

"Sounds awesome!"

"That's a very structured way of looking at it, I think that would be a great start"

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

"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!"

"The end of the quarter is kinda sucky rn"

"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.”"

"Quite a bit, a lot has changed for my recently, I told my parents about wanting to disassociate myself from their religion, and that's been just difficult because I'm trying to figure out what to believe, I recently gave up pornography as well, and it's been such a struggle without it, I've had an addiction to it for a few years now, so everyday life just seems much harder than usual, and as the end of the quarter nears my schoolwork is just ridiculous, so it's been quite hard to feel happy these past couple weeks"

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