New To The Anxiety Support Community? Introduce Yourself Here!

Hi there! I'm 17 and still a high school student. Sadly I haven't been able to get officially diagnosed yet but I'll soon get tested for both Social Anxiety and Generalized Anxiety Disorder! Honestly it has really impacted my social life and my education so I definitely hope I'll get the support I need very soon.

I've made 1 of these years ago.seems like things are very different. I'm in need to talk but I'm also here to listen. I've been through some things and right now it's harder than before. Regardless I still listen and I can give a little advice or let you know how well your doing through what ever you're going through.

Hi, I am from California, I have been experiencing fear/panic attacks lately. I am a graduate student, working full-time, and my spouse is disabled, so all contribute to feeling overwhelmed and depressed. I understand that there are many people facing the same issues or maybe worse. However, I started to notice chances in my life, where I became not interested in doing anything and giving up. I am thinking about resigning from my job almost everyday. I lost hope.

Hi I’m called Emmy and recently I just have felt like I don’t belong anywhere

it was becoming really difficult to make friends and I felt like I just did not belong anywhere

but I started to make friends and then I found 7 cups and there was this one specific listener who just made me feel so much better and I finally found my purpose in life and I’m doing so much better now, I became a listener not to long ago so hopefully I can help someone just like that listener helped me xx

Hi, my name is Hannah. I have been struggling with social anxiety since quarantine. It’s gotten even worse since I’ve started at a new high school in a new state. It’s gotten to the point where even walking in the hallway is stressful. I have a hard time looking where I’m going because of it. At one point I even kept my eyes closed when I was walking so that I wouldn’t have to look at the people passing by me. I also avoid eye contact with almost all people, I’m not completely comfortable around anyone outside of my family. 

Everyone around me at my home and school are very supportive and I’m very thankful for that. But it’s still difficult.
