Hi everyone,
I am here for the first time but have been struggeling with depression for a looooooooooooooong time. Currently I am on a waiting list for therapy and just want someone to talk to that understands. My friends and family are super supportive but they don't always understand just how difficult it is for me to get out of bed every morning.
@creativeFig1564 Hi Fig, welcome to 7Cups! We are delighted to have you here with us. I totally know what you mean by reaching out to others. My family, for the most part, understands my mental health issues and do their best to support me, but at the same time, they don't get me. It makes it hard for me to reach out to them. I'm so glad you have reached out to us! If you haven't already, feel free to reach out to the listeners at any time to chat. You can also browse through listeners and filter by specific topic (i.e. depression). If you have any questions/concerns, let us know. I hope you are able to start therapy soon! Best wishes! :)
