Struggling

I’ve really been struggling the past few years with my mental health. I’ve been trying hard to work on myself, but it feels like one step forward and two steps back. I feel so alone with what I’m going through and my self esteem is so low at this point. I’m looking for someone that I can relate to, to support each other, for friendship, and to help build each other up 🫶🏻

Hey Anna549.

I know how you feel, I've been getting worse for years now. Everytime I feel like I get a handle on things, something new sets me back to square one. I ended up here because I don't have anyone else I can talk to. I had a great conversation with a Listener earlier, and I am going to talk with them again soon. If you want to reach out and talk with another user, someone sharing your experience rather than someone just helping/listening to it, just post back in this thread and I'll come back and check on it. A dialogue might just let off some of the pressure.

@Anna549

I'm new to this site Anna, but truly feel your pain. I can't talk to family/friends as I can't explain how I'm feeling without causing them anguish, which isnt fair on them ... perhaps it's easier to open up to 'strangers' who are also dealing with these challenges, who don't know us personally and perhaps can give unbiased advice and support from theirown experiences? Wishing you all the best x

@Anna549  I have been where you are.  I just want to draw your attention to the leaf Icon at the top of the 7cups page, in the middle.  There are guided paths that you can take to work on specific issues.  I'm doing the Self-Esteem Path.  Its just a series of small steps to make you more mindful about your self-esteem and reminds you to be kind to yourself.  I dont do it all the time, but it does help.  Small steps.

I get it. I’ve been struggling for most of my adult life and don’t have anyone in my real life that understands 😔
