@GlenM that even a small response to a person's post reaching out, can bring comfort on a level that brings some healing, knowing someone hears them. It may take some bravery to make that comment, but it can calm some anxiety for someone to know someone hears them.
@inventiveHouse2965 Well said, it is always nice to feel acknowledged after having the courage to reach out. :) Thanks for your kind words!
Some days when youve been on a good run. Something can happen to throw u in a loop. Just remember its a journey and some steps are harder than others. Just keep going
@Needsolution Precisely, there are hiccups along the way, but perserverance is what keeps us going. Well said, and have a lovely week!
I have learned that I am NOT alone in this, no one is!
@cathrynmonroe What a cute dp! You are certainly not alone; 7Cups is here for you. :) Thanks for sharing, and have a nice week!
I feeling better
@CidyGurl Yay, glad to hear you are feeling better! Thanks so much for sharing, and have an awesome week. :D
I'm on step 12 of my perinatal mood disorder path. I've learned that I need to seek support. Finding the support and help I need is turing out to be harder than expected, but I'm getting done. I have to make it happen.
@Mamakay Congrats on reaching step 12! I am so proud that you recognize the need to get help and support. It is not easy to admit, but you deserve to get help and support to overcome this difficult time. If you haven't already checked it out, we have a perinatal mood disorders forum as part of the brand new Parenting and Pregnancy Subcommunity. You can check it out here.
I wish you the best and know you will get better with time. We are here for you! Best wishes, and have an awesome week.
At my 60 step milestone I've learned how to become calm through breathing and meditating, and also self encouragement (which I still need to work on).
@rachiechu888 Congrats on reaching step 60! I'm glad that breathing and meditation have helped you stay calm. Self encouragment is a struggle for many, but recognizing the need to improve on it is a great first step. We believe in you! Keep up the great work, and have a fantastic week.
Step 170! Things are going well. I'm learning I can let go of the past.
@KimmyD1213 Congrats on reaching step 170! I am delighted to hear things are going well for you. It is never easy to let go of the past, so kudos to you. Best wishes, and have a lovely week.
umm honestly i really dont know what i learned
@Sabrina3886 No worries at all, I am sure you will learn something very soon. :) We are always here for support! Best wishes, and have a great week!
It is my choice to look at the sun and not dwell on shadows.
It is not that I CAN NOT talk in groups at the program, it is that I FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE talking in groups - but I have a right to talk in them and a right to ask for help in how to talk in grouos....OPPOSITE TO EMOTION ACTION!
@blissedNblessed You continue to show immense self awareness! You do indeed have the right to speak up and reach out for help and support. Group sessions can be challenging, so props to you for making the effort to attend them. Well done, and thank you for sharing!
@lovelyWhisper66
No props for me.
I quit the program today.
I dont feel safe talking in groups.
There is officially NO MORE help available to me.
I just....give up.
@blissedNblessed don't give up, try to stay strong ❤️
@blissedNblessed Hi there, I'm so sorry to hear group support didn't work out the way you wanted. I am sure you did what was right for you. If you ever need someone to talk to, feel free to reach out to a listener 1 on 1. Support can come from different sources, and you deserve to be heard and acknowledged. We are here for you! Best wishes, and I know you will get through this.
