Hello!
Hi Everyone- I’m 59 and have been living with depression for many years. It has it’s roots in childhood traumas that were not dealt with by me at the time or for the past 43 years. I’m keen to move forward and learn to manage my symptoms better and am waiting for more specialist support but waiting lists for services are around a year long! Anyway I think this site might be helpful?

Hi there! Welcome to 7Cups! We're all definitely glad to have you here :).
I'm so sorry to hear that you've been dealing with depression for so many years, especially as a result of trauma which has gone unspoken about and untreated. I wish you only the best with getting specialist care!
In the meantime, 7Cups could be very helpful in giving you a space where you can talk about how you've been feeling and open up at your own pace. We're here for you!
All the best,
@ShneurZ

Hi.
Do you know that you also can have therapi online at 7Cup. Just now (until 15.09 I think) "The therapist's office" is open and you can ask one question to a therapist at 7 Cup for free.
From Helga.
