...See more I made a post on here recently to get advice on how to love myself more and I got such amazing advice from a good amount of you and lots of words of encouragement. I just wanted to thank you. The advice that was given to me was really helpful and despite being nowhere near where I want to be, this has been helping me get on a better path. So, thanks. Joining 7 cups was worth it and I am glad I don't regret it. Can't wait to continue improving myself on here.

How do I love myself more and not care about trying to impress people?

...See more For context, I have self esteem issues and I depend my mood on whether or not a specific group of people interacts with me or not. It’s draining and I’ve taken a break from those people to work on myself. When (or if) I ever interact with them again, I don’t want to have that attachment or desperation for them. I want to learn to be happy with myself and that it’s not my fault whether or not people don’t want to interact with me, but sometimes it’s really hard and there are moments where I talk down on myself. Do any of you have any advice?

...See more I really like someone, but it's gotten to the point where I overthink everything about her and it's affecting my everyday activities and making me depressed.  I still want to pursue her, but it's hard to when all I see her as is someone I want to be with. With every girl I liked, I kept making the mistake of stressing about it and then moving on because of the pressure and never end up really pursuing them that much. I don't want to make the same mistake with this one, especially since I really like her compared to my previous crushes. So, how do I get rid of this obsession of her, so I can approach her like a normal human being?

...See more Hello! It's been a week since I have been on 7 cups and I am going to do my best to utilize as much as possible. I'm hoping to eventually talk to people who can relate to my situation especially since this community has people around my age. I feel like I would be able to relate to a lot of you and maybe even get some advice on how to deal with this problem I am having. I provide more context in another post; I just wanted to introduce myself :)

...See more When I wrote everything, I kept having my thumb over the send button for an hour debating whether it was a good idea or not. I went through with it, and now I’m absolutely terrified to see their response.

...See more I wrote something to my friends and it is an apology and an explanation of why I was acting weird when I was hanging out with them last time. I’m tired of suppressing my feelings to people and I feel like I need to tell them this, but I have a fear of scaring them off due to how much I am writing to them. I don’t know if I should do it.
