Newbie on 7cups

Hi! I'm 17 and this is my first time on using 7cups. I'll admit I'm not too sure on how everything works around here since this is my first time (and my first using a mental health site so I'm nervous, I'll admit) 

I've been struggling with mental health for a while and it's been affecting college life, so I want to make sure I can get some help and pull through it. 

Admittingly, I'm still scared on talking to people even the listeners but I'm trying to tell myself I wouldn't bother them or anything.  I hope to also make new friends too and overall be more comfortable here. Yeah, that's all I wanted to say thank you <3

@Vellieni

I'm so glad you took the brave step of reaching out for support. It's completely normal to feel nervous, especially when sharing personal struggles for the first time.

Firstly, congratulations on acknowledging your mental health challenges and seeking help - that's a huge accomplishment! College life can be tough, and it's amazing that you're prioritizing your well-being.

Don't worry about 'bothering' us listeners; we're here to support you without judgment. Our purpose is to provide a safe space for you to express yourself.

Remember you're not alone.
