I'm new here 👋
Hey there, I'm new here and here's a small intro. I'm Aman, 22 years old, looking for a supportive friend or group. I have several mental health issues like emotional trauma, depression, and low self-esteem. I've been looking for a way to cope and live a good life, and hopefully, I'll find some meaningful connections here.
I mostly spend my time reading stuff on mental health, philosophy, and anything interesting, and working on my career. I'm open to hearing from everyone who is willing to share anything. I love sketching too, especially while listening to music. I'm mad about music and movies. I mostly listen to different composers, rock, and explore different genres; same goes for movies.
I’d love to hear your story. Feel free to share anything.

Hi, I'm Kiara! Welcome to 7Cups <3
I love drawing too <3
Thank you so much. Kiara, What do you like to draw? I'm curious to know
I really love drawing wolves, and I’ve been getting into drawing origami animals lately :)
That’s awesome! Wolves are such an interesting animals to draw. Origami animals sounds creative. I’d love to see some of your sketches sometime if you’re comfortable sharing.
Unfortunately, I don’t feel comfy sharing photos on 7Cups, but look up “origami animal drawings” and you’ll get the idea of how they look <3
New here also. What type of things do you draw?
Welcome to 7Cups! I’m Kiara :)
@amanheal747 Hi Aman. So glad you came here and decided to seek support. What's bringing you down if you feel like sharing a bit with us and we can see if we can do something for you. What type of music do you enjoy ?
Thank you, I'm happy to be here and I appreciate the kindness. I have been through a lot of bullying in my school years, and after years, I realized all those negative experiences added a lot to my self-image in a negative way. Including fearing to make friends, so I'm currently working on finding those negative patterns and changing them at the same time. If I talk about music, I always look for songs that make you feel like you're floating. Some sort of orchestral, atmospheric, and experimental music. The Strokes, Radiohead, Cure, Radiohead, Deftones the list goes on.
@amanheal747
We are similar! I love philosophy. If you're interested I wrote a piece on the meaning of life. It's in the Motivation & Accountability section of the forums. I'd love to know what you think.
Depression is a beast my friend, I had it bad. You seem to be pretty aware and reflective though, I believe that will serve you well.
I will definitely check it out and share my opinion. I think I should write too, because I'm flooded with some hidden insights about life. Yeah, depression does a lot to the way you see the world. I have realized the love I was seeking, and the pain of rejection from the world was nothing but my own expectations from the world. And now I am a really good parent to myself now that I am my own.
@amanheal747
I suffered a lot by having unreasonable expectations. We must not only parent ourselves but each other. Nature is a collaborative process.
@amanheal747 welcome to seven cups and thank you for your honesty 😊 I took love philosophy and learning. I am a football nut, watch and attend as many as is humanly possible. You will find me on the dancefloor when I'm not doing that 😁 I really believe you'll find the support and friendship you need here 🥰💜
@amanheal747

Mental health struggles can be tough, but you’re already doing something amazing by seeking understanding and growth. I love that you’re into philosophy and music — those can be such great companions on this journey. Sketching while listening to music sounds like such a soothing combo!
