I'm Jackie!
Hi guys, my names Jackie and I am 27. i have been dealing with depression since i was 12 years old, and I have never really overcome it. I always put myself down, even though i know that i am better than that. For some reason i love to get into abusive relationships because i hope that they will kill me and I dont have to do it myself. Right now im not with anyone so im back to snapping a rubber band on my wrist and its actually getting annoying. Im using all these different coping skills ive learned in my years and non of them are helping! anyone have any new ideas i havent heard already?
Hi Jackie! Welcome to 7 cups! I hope you'll enjoy your time here :)
Sorry to hear about what you're going through, it does takes time to find a coping mechanism that we're compatible with...are you currently seeing any therapist or psychiatrist at the moment? Have they ever give you any advice on how to cope?
@terrytee i just noticed you were the first one to welcome me, im so happy that you were!
welcome to 7 cups Jackie! I hope you are able to find the help you need. Coping can be hard, I used to listen to music all the time as my coping skill.

Hi Jackie <3 I just came across your post while browsing the forums and I just thought I'd drop in and offer to talk with you sometime soon if you could use an extra person to talk to about your depression and such? I'm starting to use another website to help me schedule my 7Cups chats, so you're welcome to set up a time for us to talk here: joshcrs101395.youcanbook.me/
I hope you've gotten some good support in the time you've been on this site!
