Hopelab & Well Being Trust 42
"I watched videos of people talking about their
family member's eating disorders, because
my roommate had one and I didn't know how
to support her."

"I asked about the electric cigarettes to quit smoking;
a lot of people had something to say but I asked if the
gum or those cigarettes are addicting. Because my
friend can't seem to stop using them."

"My mom was making me get the hepatitis A vaccine and
[another] one for HPV and I didn't know what the shots
were for, and I was too scared to ask the nurse about it,
especially after she started talking about gay sex & warts,
so I went online to [a medical website] and tried to research
it myself. It's still hard to do that when you don't what the
words mean. I finally asked my mom & she sat down with
me, and we got online and did the pros & cons. I felt better
after cause she was explaining what I didn't understand."
— 14-year-old White female
