“Are you okay?”

Nathalia came to the bathroom for a chance to breathe. She’s been having feelings of depression, especially in school. While she’s in the bathroom stall crying, another student, Dezalynn, enters to wash her hands. She overhears crying and goes to see if she can help. Dezalynn knocks on the stall. “Are you okay?” Nathalia responds with “I’m fine.” Dezalynn notices that shes not, and responds with “I’m here if you need to talk to anyone.” Nathalia agrees and is relieved. She goes with Dezalynn to the counselor for support. Never think you’re alone in your battle.
