Need a listener

I have come to recognize a lot of the trauma in my life and how it affects my relationship negatively. I want to better understand these feelings that I feel and why I feel that way. I could really use advice. Not sure if this is the right place for all of what I need to say.

Hiya @Junshook welcome to the community. 

Trauma can indeed manifest in our lives in different ways, impacting our relationship with self and others, in general, how we interact with ourselves and the world around us.

It is so brave of you to recognize the signs and for seeking support in understanding your feelings better.

While listeners cannot offer advice as offering advice without being in someone's actual shoes can do more harm than good, they certainly can provide you a comfortable, safe space to share your thoughts and feelings, plus help you guide through the challenging time via utilising their active listening skills. 

Have you tried exploring the chatrooms here? 

Lots of group chats here to engage in support seeking in a group setting.

You can of course also reach out to listeners for a 1-1 conversation, here's the link to browsing for listeners, where you can select multiple filters as well: https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/

It is okay to take your time in exploring, reaching out and opening up. Good wishes to you!💛
