Last post
Thursday
...See more Any new member of the NAMI Community who introduces themselves and takes the NAMI Oath will receive the NAMI Oath Badge. Please copy, paste, sign and date the following NAMI Oath within this thread: NAMI Oath I pledge a moral oath before my fellow active listeners, 7 Cups members and NAMI supporters. I pledge to help support NAMI's mission and to dedicate myself to building better lives for anyone affected by mental illness. I pledge to always try my best to be a positive influence and make a difference in the lives of others. I pledge to be #stigmafree and respectful of anyone who may be experiencing a mental health challenge. I will educate, advocate and listen to others' experiences without judgment or bias. I will encourage acceptance and understanding. When I see that someone needs more than the peer support I can provide, I will refer them to professional help and appropriate resources. I pledge to make my own self-care a priority and recognize when I need to take extra time to take care of my own mental health. I will keep these promises and I will do everything in my power to promote mental health, healing, and wellness within myself, my fellow members and my world. I believe that no one should face mental illness alone and I pledge to provide peer support to anyone who reaches out to the NAMI Community for help. Signed: Date:

Test Day Disaster

...See more Ugh, today has been one of the most frustrating days ever! I was writing a timed test with 40 questions, supposedly with a 15-minutes time limit. But guess what? My timer said 7 minutes! And to make matters worse, my computer wasn't even working properly. But what really took the cake was when I complained about these issues to the person in charge of the examination and the computer personnel. Instead of helping me or apologizing for the inconvenience, one of them asked "what's their business?" and walked past me, and another one blamed me for not arriving on time (despite the fact that the exam started an hour late)! I'm still fuming about the whole experience.

...See more I don't like how my mom treats me harshly for not wanting a girlfriend. While she says almost nothing when my sister wants a girlfriend. It's like she treats her better. Or she hates boys or whatever.

Working On Myself
by Anxioussoul877
Last post

...See more I recently took time to reflect on my life, and I've come to realize that I want to focus on personal growth. I aspire to improve my mindset, physical health, relationships, and overall way of life. This journey is important to me because I've struggled with the aftermath of childhood bullying, which has led to difficulties in forming connections and trusting others. As a result, I often feel like I'm being judged, and it's taken a toll on my mental, physical, and emotional well-being. I've also struggled with forming intimate relationships, including finding a boyfriend, because I crave a deeper connection with someone, but my past experiences have made it challenging for me to open up. I'm eager to work on myself, but I'm unsure where to start. Any guidance or advice would be greatly appreciated.

...See more having a sudden flashback of bad hurtful-triggering experience?? That's okay. People ignoring me? Also okay. This new mindset really help me to ease my anxiety and worry. Do you think it's effective? or am I losing my mind? Thanks in advance 😄🙏

...See more Hey everyone! ☺️ I just wanted to share something really special for the first time on any social platform—I'm in love! It feels amazing, and I get butterflies in my stomach every time my partner looks at me. I find myself reading our text conversations over and over again, just soaking up every sweet moment. I miss them all the time and can't help but wonder—am I the only one feeling this way, or is this happening to someone else too? Would love to hear your thoughts, your stories and feelings 🙈 💕

"The feeling of shame, guilt, and fear of failure."

...See more لقد مررت بتجربة أشعر فيها أنني كنت حاضرا حقا. قبل عامين كنت أسير مع التيار، مؤمنًا بالفكرة الخاطئة التي تقول إن الشغف لا يتعب أبدًا. لكن مع ضغوط العمل والخبرة، قررت الاستقالة بعد 14 يومًا. منذ ذلك الوقت، ارتبطت مشاعر العار التي انتابني بسبب استقالتي ارتباطًا وثيقًا. أشعر وكأن أحدًا لن يوظفني بسبب ذلك، وأنهم قد يرونني فاشلاً - مثل المفتش على سبيل المثال. أخشى أن يكذب علي الناس أو يكتفوا بما أقول. يثقل هذا الشعور كاهلي. أريد أن أعمل وأن أتجاوز هذا الكابوس. وما يجعل الأمر أكثر صعوبة هو أنني أعاني من اضطراب الوسواس القهري، وهذه الأفكار تظل تضغط علي بلا هوادة. خاصة أنه بعد استقالتي أصيبت أختي بالسرطان، وكان الأمر بمثابة صدمة، ولكنني واصلت العلاج معها لمدة عام، وبدأت أفهم حجم الصدمة التي حدثت بعد ذلك. I recently realized that I was suffering from wrong thinking, especially since I was following some scientists. In energy, their content was somewhat misleading. After I discovered the truth, it was a shock that brought me back to my senses and reality, and I am slowly trying to correct my mistakes. Imagine that for two years I did not ask for a work certificate until recently. I am shocked. Is it a shock and a distortion of my thinking? And the people I was following and I thought they were guiding me to the right path could not help me, but once I stopped following their delusions and resorted to God and recovered properly, my vision became clear, but I still have some fears, but I am better than before because those things made me feel that I was in control of my reality, and thus I feel very guilty. They were conflicting beliefs. Recently, I discovered that my addiction to social media also distorted my perception of myself, so I immersed myself in those energy sciences and was drawn into anesthetizing my mother, and I thought I was curing her.
