I’m losing control of myself… and I’m scared.
I’ve been dealing with anxiety, depression, and deep loneliness for a long time now.
But lately, it’s been getting worse. I feel like I’m constantly on edge, angry at everything and everyone.
The smallest things make me explode. I isolate myself for days. I don’t talk to anyone.
I feel like no one understands how hard it is to live inside this storm.
Sometimes I’m afraid of myself — how I react, how I shut down, how cold I become.
I miss the person I used to be.
I came here to find someone who truly listens… who just sees me as I am, without trying to fix or judge me.
If you’ve felt something similar, I’d love to hear from you. Maybe we can feel a little less alone together.
Hey, thank you for being so open, it takes real strength to share all of that. Everything you wrote makes so much sense. Feeling like you’re on edge all the time, isolating, and missing the person you used to be… that’s not something to brush off. It is scary, and it sounds like you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time.
You’re not broken or too much. You’re overwhelmed, and that’s completely human. Wanting someone to just listen without judging or fixing you? That’s valid. You deserve that kind of space, and I really hope that 7Cups can be that place for you.
You’re not alone in this, even if it feels that way sometimes. Feel free to contact me if you need, and I’ll try to get back to you as soon as I can.
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful message.
I honestly didn’t expect anyone to really understand how it feels, but your words made me feel seen — truly.
You're right… I do feel overwhelmed, and sometimes I wonder if I'm just too much. But reading what you wrote gave me some comfort I didn’t know I needed.
Thank you for reminding me I’m not broken. That means more than I can express.
I’m really grateful you took the time to say all that. I’ll hold on to your words tonight.

@aquaOwl8255 I'm sorry you're feeling this way, please know that you're not alone 🤍 I wish you have a great time here🍀 Sending lots of love towards you! ❤️❤️
Thank you so much for your kind words.
It really means a lot to me right now to feel seen and not completely alone.
I'm trying… even if everything feels too heavy.
When I am anxious, as I have been lately, I too isolate, sometimes too much! It is actually how a few people have noticed in the past that something is not OK with me. I get too quiet. So I very much understand isolating! I know you can get through this! Don't give up!
I relate to every word you said.
I isolate too, and sometimes it feels like disappearing is easier than explaining what I'm going through.
Thank you for reminding me I'm not alone. That means everything to me.
Yes! All day yes! I am a fighter since birth and now a krav maga black belt and instructor, yet sometimes isolation is better than explaining! I actually talked to my "boss" last night (krav is unpaid but a second job, and my boss is a friend for many years) and while he can be rough, he listened and joked about my situation in the best way. I definitely default to isolation, but it isn't the best tactic! Maybe that is why i just found 7 cups...
It's like you're in my head. I so feel this. It hits me outta nowhere. Even in the middle of the night. The dread...helpless...hopeless. people say stop. It's ok. Yeah...but I don't FEEL that.
