Anxiety Support
Hey , i am new to this application.
So i have been struggling with GAD . I am taking professional help . But then I've realised that what helps me the most is interacting with people who've been experiencing the same . I don't have anyone irl with whom I am comfortable opening up about my mental health issues .
I bottled up everything.
Now it's almost unbearable and hence I've decided to try and see if this application can help me find someone / community where I can express myself freely without any fear of judgement. I promise this won't be one sided . I believe I am a decent listener too because I've been through a lot and can almost relate to everything out there haha .
I am 26 yo and right now I'm extremely stressed about my career. It's becoming difficult for me to even do basic self care.I lose so much time every single day because of my anxiety. Hours.
I want to connect with someone who is willing to improve together by ensuring accountability when it comes to self care . Talking to a professional and talking to someone on the same page feels so different. I hope you can relate .
I am yet to figure how this app works exactly. But I hope to make some friends and improve together .
If there is an option to send personal messages..please hit me up .
What I've written might not be structured properly. I am just way too stressed and tired now I don't think my intellect is working well. Haha .

Hi there. Welcome to 7 cups!
I'm sorry to hear about your anxiety and how it is wearing you down. Well done you for sorting yourself out some professional support.
I think you will find lots of people who can relate here. I've found sharing experiences here a great way to grow, and my anxiety is so much less now. So I hope you have just as much success.
And listening is so unique in its power. There's no better way to learn compassion for ourselves than by giving it to others. I really recommend the listening courses. They taught me so much about how to help others with anxiety, and thus help myself.
If I can be of any help navigating the site, I'm no pro, but I will happily try to answer questions.
I'm so impressed with how you are taking steps to care for yourself. I wish you joy and success on your journey.
