My anxiety journey
Anxiety Support / by listenerladybug23

...See more Hello all, I am new to the 7 cups community and am a newbie listener. I wanted to get some volunteer hours where I could help people but not have to go too far out of my comfort zone, and having dealt with anxiety and other mental health problems, I thought it would be beneficial to try and help people in similar situations to not feel so alone. I first started having maybe problems with my anxiety in high school. Luckily, my mom is a mental health professional and quickly helped me get into some therapy to help cope. I would make myself feel physically sick over small things and I worried about every little thing constantly. Since starting therapy almost 4 years ago, I have come a long way with my anxiety. It has never gone away but I have learned to better cope with it and not have as serious physical symptoms. I am now in college and my anxiety is pretty much at it’s peak almost every day, but I push through and try my best. I am lucky to have an amazing support system and people that I trust that I can talk to. I also have two dogs that help a lot with my anxiety and depression. I hope that here on 7 cups I can make a small difference in someone’s life just by being someone they can talk to and feel heard by. I hope that when I chat with users, they feel less alone in this big, scary world. Thank you for reading and I wish you all the best of luck with your own mental health journeys, whatever they may be!❤️
