Struggling and out of meds
I've tried to talk 1-1 with a couple of listeners here and I haven't gotten anywhere. I say what's been going on, and how I'm struggling, and it's radio silence. Am I doing something wrong? I'm just trying to get through this without my meds, and it seems no one is willing to listen.
Hi, I'm so sorry about your bad experience on 7 Cups. You have done nothing wrong and we are here to listen, and if we ever feel uncomfortable discussing a particular topic, we should communicate it to the member we are talking to. I hope you are luckier next time and I assure you that there listeners who will be available to hear what you have to say, know that I am available. Take care.
Like I said, I've tried to chat 1-1 twice now. The first wouldn't listen and said that if I didn't get back on my meds I'd be committing s**cide in 3weeks. The second ghosted me. This is not what need. I need someone to talk to, and this is very discouraging.
Hi Heather,
I'm just a member, not a qualified listener or therapist. I've tried both on here. If you just need someone to vent to, the listener s are best. If you have a medical problem for which you were given meds that don't work or aren't wanted, you should be using a therapist on here. It's safer and more reliable. I am speaking from experience, and it seems like a lot of money. But remember that you are investing in yourself, so try one month at a time and remember it might take a few tries to find a therapist that clicks. No one here like seeing anyone discouraged.
@Heather1970 Heather, I am so sorry to hear that this happened to you! Sometimes listeners might log out during the conversation, but please remember that this doesn't mean they are not willing to listen to you. We are all here for you and feel free to pm if you need someone to talk to! I am glad we have you here with us <3
