Hi I'm new to the community just wanted to introduce myself
I met my ex 9yrs ago and 2yrs in had 2 kids my son and my daughter i became a stay at home father because my ex couldnt handle being at home she said she needed a life so she started working full time and hanging out with her family and friends i was never the type to sit home but i knew my kids needed a parent around i became restless but she was avoiding our family and blamed me for it all i asked her for was to cut back hours at work and she would always tell me i was lazy because i didnt work but i think she wasnt seeing the full picture we had kids that needed us i was attacked by her physical and emotional for 7yrs because i cared about our kids having a parent now she has left and wont let me contact my kids i raised alone i now have 2 jobs but still feel lazy and worthless on top of not seeing my kids i now also take meds to sleep at night and will be getting a full diagnosis of my mental stability the day after my sons 8th birthday i have become destroyed over all of this and i somehow feel im to blame for all this and have nobody to talk to at all i was cut off from the outside world so long that i dont even want to be out there
@greenShade3829 The best thing you can do is try to ignore.
@greenShade3829 keep your head up man I hope you get to see your kids this made me tear up(ik im soft)things will get better, I relate so much about what you said feeling cut off to the outside world as Im only 17 and feel like my lifes already over I cant escape this isolation and this house feels like a lifelong prison sentence. Anyways I hope you find peace and happiness, stay strong!
Hi! Very excited to be a part of the community :)
Hi guys,
I just joined last night. I don't know if this is where you're supposed to introduce yourself, so I hope I'm not doing something wrong. . .
Anyway, this is a great community and I just wanted to say I'm glad I signed up. Thanks so much to people who put time into listening to other's problems, it's so amazing of you to do that! I'm not the most interesting person in the world but I do appreciate it.

Hi. Im Res, new to all this.
Hello,
I just joined 7 cups a couple of nights ago and just joined this community, and I hope this is the right thread to introduce myself.
I am in my last year of university, and occasionally I go through times where it is difficult for me to study, work, and even have fun. During these times, I feel like crawling into a hole and never coming out. I think this might be depression, so I thought I would join this community to learn more and find support.
Hello everyone. I don't know where to start but I am a foreigner who came to live here because I felt inloved with my husband who is american. It was very difficult to make this decision because I have really good relationship with my family and leaving them broke my heart. It took me so long to get used to live far from them but I feel like I still miss them more than I should. Long story short, I have been on and off of my depression for the past 3 years. 3 years ago I started to see a therapist online because I had ectopic pregnancy and my husband lost his job and I think that then I really lost myself. I was so angry at him about loosing his job and thought about divorce.. we worked it out but I still have my doubts about if I love him or not usually during big events like buying a house. So..I probably sound super spoiled to be freaking out about this but I am, and I feel trapped. I feel like buying this house with completely trapped me to live with him and if I want to go back to my country I won't be able to. And it sucks because I really love this house but since I lost the baby and my husband his job at the time I have been feeling that i can't be happy anymore.. I'm constantly fearing that something bad will happen.. I know I make no sense and feel horrible about it. I don't want to tell him about my dialemas because I don't want to hurt his feelings. He is really great partner-always super supportive and carrying.. but I kind of feel like I'm all alone here.
Hello. I'm new here. I'm trying to find some sort of emotional support. My counselor says I'm depressed and my parents have talked to the counselor but they refuse to do anything about it.
