...See more Hi all, It's been awhile. At work I am constantly worked to the absolute bone I work 13-14 hr days with a boss who doesn't care about me and use me as a tool. She constantly makes fun of me and berrades me saying "take it with a grain of salt" or "don't be so sensitive". The owner of the practice who I'm closest too values me but values her more and I have literally begged her to talk to her or make it know that I am not to work that long every day. I'm chronically I'll too and constantly pushing myself. Every day at work is a bad day I cry on my way to work and on my way home. I try not to bring the day home with me but she is constantly texting me about work.... It's really effected my life I'm constantly anxious and depressed and don't really know what to do. So I came back to 7 cups for help...

Growing Up

...See more It is like I found the subcommunity when I needed it most. Not to give too much information but I am an adult adult now I always saw it when you enter your 20s boom you're an adult but I am finding as I have gotten much older that that's not true. With that being said I had a friend group that was huge we all nerded out together and we would play d&d every weekend and go to Comic-Con and anime conventions and it was just such easy friendship we all even had a group chat that was constantly just pinging my phone. Now a lot of my friend group is moved out of state and everyone is growing and changing and I have found myself almost lonely. The group chat has stopped making any sort of sound for months now we tried to plan Comic-Con this year with all of our friends and nobody showed up and I just feel like there's a huge hole in my heart. If anyone else is going through the same thing just know that there's a friend here who loves to make new friends so feel free to reach out.

...See more I have been struggling with depression since I was 8 years old. I am 26 now so that says alot. I have gotten help and used this app alot. I've been off and on medication and I'm currently on wellbutrin. This past year has been the worst year of my life. I developed a very serious chronic illness that took my life over for awhile. I also had some terrible family issues that are still going on with my husband's family. My entire wedding was ruined by both these things and it's very hard to move past it. Lastly I had to take a 3 month leave for my health. I am a hairstyles of 8 years. I have spent 4 of them at this salon building my book. While I was gone one of the stylist stole my clients even the ones who were family to me and had been coming to me for 8 years. I lost 30 clients and I'm left with 15. Tonight was the official tip of the iceberg when I was on instagram and saw a client I had just done yesterday with her son at a different salon today. I feel like such a loser like I can't do anything right. I keep looking through my hair photos and Instagram and I don't know what went wrong I am a very talented stylist with years of education and I feel like I have lost everything. I don't know what to do and how to pick up the pieces and move forward. I'm thinking about moving salons and starting over because it is so painful seeing all of my clients In another chair. I was even thinking about changing my career path. Yet I have build and dedicated my life since I was 18 to hair. I'm so confused and anxious and sad. I could use some support and kind words of encouragement.
