Let me introduce myself-
Hello, my name is Obs. I joined 7Cups in July 2017 as a listener. I got to know about this platform from my friend and I loved the idea of listening and supporting others. I think all emotions are valid. Everyone has own struggles and how it makes one feel, only the person who experiencing can understand it. But you are not alone. If you need some support and a compassionate ear to hear you. You can count us.
Now it is your turn!! 
Hi I'm 18, I've been feeling bad for about 3 years now. I don't really know what's wrong with me but I hope that something is and that it can be fixed. Because I hate my life, I just keep wishing for it to get better but how can it if I'm scared of everything. I don't really have friends right now, I live in a house with my dad, step mother and step siblings while my mom is an alcoholic and lives in a different country. I used to live with her when I was 10 till I was 13 but the drinking got really out of control and I couldn't take it anymore and called my dad and told him all about what was going on in the past years. I moved in with him and his new family and they are nice to me, it's just that my relationship with my father is pretty much non existant. The only time I feel that he's proud of me is when I bring home good grades or clean up the house. And recently I feel like that's the only one thing I'm good at. I started doubting myself in social situations I always feel like I don't fit in anywhere. This is so long, I just want to talk with anyone, and sorry for any spelling mistakes or grammatical errors English isnt my first language.
Hello!
This is my first time on 7 Cups. I plan to be a Psychologist and think this is a good first step and good experience to apply to my future career.

Hi! I'm Liv. 20 years old. I've been diagnosed with mental illness since I was 5, starting with ADHD. At 13, I was diagnosed with a mood disorder, most likely Bipolar Disorder. At 15, I was diagnosed with anxiety and misdiagnosed with Borderline. At 17, my official diagnosis became Bipolar, ADHD, and anxiety. Now, at 20 my diagnosis also includes Autism Spectrum Disorder. I'm glad to be a part of such a warm community.
Hi everyone, I've been battling with really bad anxiety for a very long time now, I've also dealt with OCD although thankfully that's currently not affecting me but it does come up in short spikes from time to time and also possibly depression I was told by an NHS mental health unit that I likely do have it and I'm on anti-depressants but no one has told me I definitely do. I've tried many things over the years including medication and therapy but I've found that the one thing that helps me is talking about it but that often leads to problems of its own. So I figured I'd join this site so that I'd have somewhere I could come to get things off my chest without having to worry that it's been passed on or anything like that. Also I would love to help others if I can
Hi! I
Hey! I'm Mustafa, a new listener on 7cups. I'll be glad to listen to anyone.
Hi everyone! I'm a new member dealing with depression and anxiety. I'm not diagnosed because therapy and seeing a psychiatrist is lots of money I don't have right now. Hoping I can find some good ways to deal until I get back on my feet.
Hello everyone ima 40 yr old guy. .
I suffer from panic attacks,I get really angry and frustrated about things,cause I tend to hold things inside. I have trouble expressing how I'm feeling, I don't know how to express my emotions in a healthy way,I get things mixed up, I feel one kind of thing but comes up as something else. I constantly feel overwhelmed.i don't know how to cope with things in a healthy way and I can't let stuff go,with me the punishment doesnt fit the crime, I have major trust issues and need constant reassurance,I'm very insecure in relationships cause of trust issues.and I have trouble expressing myself,I stutter, and get flustered cause I want to say many things at once and they come out wrong.i have low confidence and self esteem.
I used to feel really good and had a screw you attitude towards anyone trying to hurt me or put me down, but now it seems that I take everything so personal and severely.it knocks the wind out of me and I don't get up for a while.now I'm not living my life anymore I just manage each day and try not to have a panic attack or have someone freak me out,a girl, or someone saying somethin to me.
Hi,
Forgive me if this appears twice. I posted it earlier but it doesn't seem to have appeared. I am a 63 year old female who has a lifelong (since the age of 16) diagnosis of bipolar. I have just been rediagnosed as having ADHD and probably not bipolar or a bit of both. Bit overwhelming at this stage in my life.
