@Hope Welcome! I'm really glad you joined 7Cups and are here with us today.
I‘m searching for an therapist for like 2years but no one accepted me.
i need someone to tell all my thoughts and doesn’t judge me and also someone who supports me maybe.
my first language is German, so my English is not the best.

Welcome all new members! I am a new listener and only just learning the ropes, but I am trying to be helpful in the ways I can if someone needs an empathetic ear (is that a thing? haha) I have first joined as a member and was touched by the good people do here, the care and support people provide to others. I would like to be a part of it, too. So if you want to talk, I am gonna be here to listen. Stay positive and believe tough times never last, but tough people do (however cliche that sounds.) in fact, maybe tough isn't the right word.. just being able to navigate those pitfalls of existence is enough to be proud of yourself. We are all here because we care.
Hi there,
I’m NeptuneEmpress, a French member. I’m seeking advice or help here because I’ve been looking for a design job for almost 2 years now after a Bootcamp and a year of experience in a software development company.
I’ve seen all of my Bootcamp classmates get employed with no previous experience in the field or a related field, I’m still getting first-round interviews but it doesn’t go further than that. I hired a design mentor to help me refine my portfolio, resume and case studies.
I’m just starting to lose faith in myself and in the idea that I’ll get the job I invested many years to find. It’s hard to imagine my future right now and I don’t know what I’m doing so wrong that I can’t find success in my career.
So, I guess I’m looking for people to help me see things more clearly. I’m so lost, maybe I need different perspectives to enlighten me.
@neptunempress Hey there, your situation sounds very frustrating. I completely understand why you feel the way you do after putting in so much hard work and effort. I'm here for you whenever you need a soundboard. Hope to hear from you soon
Thanks a lot Misha!
I vented out today during the Sharing Circle and it made me feel better. But the frustration comes and goes.
Thank you for offering your ear, I’ll definitely take you up on that offer!
I'm Misha! Please feel free to message me after a long day. I'm happy to sit by you and listen to whatever is going on. Hope to hear from you soon

Hi everyone, not really sure how I should introduce myself, so I guess I'll just dive right in.
I'm 29 years old. I love creative expressions (art, music, literature, movies) and do a fair bit of gaming to boot.
I've struggled with anxiety and depression for the better part of a decade, there is a possibility of an underlying neurological disorder.
Recently I've struggled more, and thought It'd be nice to maybe talk to others in a similar situation. I'm happy to share my insights and experiences, hopefully along the way I can help some of you too.
Not sure exactly what I plan on doing here just yet, I figured I'd start with just having a look around.
I prefer a blunt, honest conversation over a comforting lie.
See you all around.
Welcome! Thanks for sharing- we are glad to have you here :). I happen to love creative expressions too! And thanks for sharing what you prefer- sometimes clear and direct conversations are really what we need in the situation.
