It's a lot of pressure being a mom having to take care about the child/children, and everything related to the household and also working fulltime! I can quite believe that you need some time for yourself, rebalance again and clear your head. It might also help to connect with a listener to chat but also for comfort. Sharing the burden, you carry might already help 💙

@PurpleHearts7

You are going through a lot! It’s a tough situation when our emotions take over and make us physically upset. Good though that you are trying to support yourself with breathing and exercise 👍. 

It might help to connect with a listener here to talk about what’s been going on in your life or use sharing circle. Sharing Circle is listed as one of the Group Support rooms https://www.7cups.com/connect/groupChatrooms.php.

You will find our anxiety support here https://www.7cups.com/home/anxiety/.

I hope this helps.

Note: At the moment 7cups is having a free AMA (ask me anything) where you can ask questions related to mental health experiences and challenges answered by Dr. Melissa Berg. Please submit your questions as soon as possible and remember first come first serve!

i don’t know why this posted twice. im so sorry about that 😭

@dantheman15

aww sry uve been feeling this way, hope u can overcome it 💗

i js wanna say that i hope yk u dont need to be in a relationship to thrive js cuz othr ppl r. theres othr ways to feel content. ik u may be scrolling on tt/yt n seeing posts abt couples looking happy etc but this may seem generic yet its true, not everythn u see is real... take brooke monk and sam dezz for an example, a popular internet couple, they seem happy etc on their posts yet theres lots of ppl pointing out things in them that show their relationship could even be fake n js for clout, whether this is true or not idk cuz im not bothered to dig deep for that but based off ppls "evidence" in vids etc maybe and not js those two, those r js the most common ones ive heard abt.

lots of those othr ppl ur seeing could also be doing the same thing as them (potentially) or acting happy in front of the camera but arguing and fighting behind the scenes, u never know. its like how u never know if sum1 is truly happy or sad based on the ways they choose to conceal their feelings, e.g: smiling excessively/laughing to show joy when truly they may be sad and this can apply to any person or situation.

ur valid for feeling this way tho, especially being around these surroundings and potentially being unaware of the ways that some ppl, even the most popular, may pretend 💗

hope u can feel better soon and try to find joy within urself (or god if u believe) cuz thats who ull never lose. its risky to js hand over everythn to one person w/ the risk of them leaving u one day and then ur life goes downhill and u get depressed. im not saying being in a relationship is bad, js be mindful to not love sum1 to the extent that u prioritize them more than urself (in extreme ways) and rely on them solely for happiness cuz even the ppl who r deeply in love can break apart by their will or by nature and think abt how ud feel after that? again being in a relationship alone isnt bad, js be careful cuz personally speaking i wish i js avoided all that, js extra stress for temporary joy in the end.

ur good enough the way u are, none of us r perfect and if u truly want love, youll get it at some point. good things come w/ patience, whats rushed may not be right 💗

@dantheman15  Hello young person.  I didn't have a significant other until age 17.  I'm a hopeless romantic as well.  I think if I met my younger self I'd tell them to continue to be a hopeless romantic, to not force it, to not think that because I'm not dating like everyone else that I'm a problem, ugly or weird, and to never compare yourself, your life, to anyone else.  Keep believing.  Keep being yourself.  All those romantic things you dream of, keep dreaming of them, they will eventually become reality, maybe not like in your fantasy but in it's own way.  Above all be kind to yourself no matter what.

@dantheman15 you're not alone I'm 17 and haven't been on a relationship yet, just want you to say enjoy you're time right now and try making good friends ❤️

Internet only shows you the highlights of people and never the whole story behind, you'll find the right person when the right time comes ❤️ try not to be too hard on yourself 🤍 I wish you the best! 🍀

Sending lots of love towards you! 🕊️

@Summershy

Sending you a big hug! 🫂 Hope you feel better soon.

@lavenderNest425

So sorry you're feeling bad! Do you think talking to a listener now could help or joining sharing circle? 💙

@Tonyk1988

I believe often the small joys we experience make life good, not necessarily the big ones.

Something that helped me with fear is learning more about situations that scare me like what to do when and writing things down that I find confusing. Seeing it on paper can help to organize them better.

@JustAnotherBrother

I tell myself every morning "This will be a good day" and it helps. When I feel down I say, "I will make the best out of this day".     

I strongly believe that telling yourself "This will be a bad day" will make one focus on searching for the negative. "Our minds follow our thoughts"
