Advice on how to organize my life
Depression Support / by VirginiaWolf92
Last post
 July 21st, 2018
...See more Hello everyone :), Partly caused by my depression I have the feeling that I lost control over my life and that things can be overwhelming for me a lot of times. I was never an organized person to begin with and have trouble to get organized. I have ADD, that might be a reason. I have the feeling that starting to organize my life will have a positive impact on myself and my life. But I honestly have no idea how or where to start. On the internet I find a lot of advice on how to improve your organization but not how to get started. So if any of you have any advice, tips or links to videos and so on, I would be very grateful. I am mainly looking for advice on how to organize your daily tasks (shopping, appointments) but also how to organize for a longer period of time (paying bills on time or not forgetting birthdays or other special occasions). I also want to start getting routines into my life, so any advice here would be helpful too. Thank you and have a nice day!! 🙂🙂🙂

Parents "dumping" their issues on me worsens everything. How to deal with it?

...See more Hello, my mother has the habit of "dumping" her emotional baggage on me. That means constantly talking about her issues. While I am sympathetic to her issues. I currently don't have the strenght or patience/time to support her, our relationship isn't that great and it's worsening my own depression and anxiety. My mother isn't able to get a therapist on short notice (three months waiting period at least) and I'm not even sure if she wants one. She has her siblings to share her issues with and does so. But also feels the need to share her issues and worries with me constantly, even after I told her multiple time that I have a lot of other things going on (she is well aware of most of them). So are any of you guys in the same situation or do you have some tips or strategies to cope with this? :) Thank you! :)

...See more Hello everyone :) I'm a 25 year old female university student and suffer from depression, anxiety and also struggle to cope with my ADD. I have a lot of academic issues on top of private issues. Starting 2014 developed the first symptoms of mental illness, but didn't realize it back then. I slowly lost all my friends and acquaintances and failed to perform academically. I also slowly gave up on reading and other things I used to love. My main motivation for joining 7cups is finding support, maybe even some friends and work on my issues :) . As I got the notification, that I failed my final exam for the second time and now am on the verge of being expelled without a degree after nearly six years, I realized that I literally have no one I could turn to for comfort and that I need to change that. I already talked to some nice people in the group chat and even have a sponsor. :) So I feel better already. Behind all the self-pity ;) I am described as a friendly and warm person. I can be pretty sarcastic and moody at times. Nowadays I perfer my own company and like to stay in my comfort zone. But I hope I am able to work on that, just as I work on my other issues. I like to watch american and british TV shows. I love Star Trek and Anime and I'm starting to get into reading books again. I prefer thrillers (political and crime) and fantasy and science fiction. I'm also interested in fashion and make up, despite being broke all the time and compensate that by watching youtube videos :D. I also like to sleep a lot. :D. So yeah this is a little bit about me :). I'm sorry if this is all over the place, it's been a long time since I have talked or even thought about myself and please don't mind my spelling and grammar mistakes. English is not my first language. Have a nice day :).

...See more Hello everyone, I am new all this but would like to have a sponsor patience enough to listen and encourage me. I am dealing with depression and anxiety, related to family issues and university. And for the cherry on top I suffer from ADD, which adds to all this. So if anyone is willing to listen to me, I would be very thankful.
