10, I believe in stoicism so I’m always a ten lol
@MonkeyBananaButter4830 good to hear Butter. Glad to have you here with us.
I agree with the Buddha Gautama that suffering is inherent to life and is no surprise no thing to disturb oneself about
I find that everything that I have ever clung to was a heavy rock on my shoulders I want everything set free absolutely everything I ever clung to and to set myself free as well
I think with objectivity much of the pain of life dissolves as it’s mostly if not all self created in the first place

- 4/10, had a really bad depressive episode last night. Realized I needed to do something about my mental health fast.
- The hundreds of tasks I simply Can't Do.
@RobbieTheRat Welcome to 7Cups and sorry to hear about it Robbie. I can understand how you must be feeling. But please know we are all here with you to listen and support.
You are always welcome to drop by Sharing Circle room and join the queue to share how are you feeling with us. We will get through this phase. One step at a time <3
I would say that my mental health is at a 3/10
My main worries are school and grades. I have just started high school but I am autistic and have executive dysfunction so I am struggling a lot.
@shilohbrook Hey Brook, Welcome to 7Cups and i am sorry to hear that you feeling not well.
I understand how school and grades could be stressful. But please know even though being autistic make things a bit harder for you, you can ace it. We believe in you. Please continue to take your small steps and we are all here with you to support.
Thanks! I hope I feel better soon. I made an appointment with my school counselor so maybe that will help.
Right now, my mental health is at a 6
My main concern is managing my emotions and making sure I don't explode in anger at the wrong time
I guess mine is about a 4 or a 5.
This is normally my favourite time of the year, but people in my life have successfully ruined it for me. I'm also behind on so many of my class assignments for uni that it just feels like I'll never catch a break.
- I'd say my mental health went from about a 6 to a 3 from lack of sleep and outside stressors.
- Right now, I'm struggling to get to school and attend classes. I'm worried that I'll have to drop out of college again, and it feels like the clock is ticking on how long it should take to finish my degree. I keep not taking my classes seriously enough and start worrying about financial problems instead of focusing on any schoolwork, and I have extreme amounts of trouble balancing my schedule.

My mental health is a 10.. NO concerns at the moment
1 - 10, I’m probably a 6-7. Doing better!
my main concern is my health. I’ve been sick with a cold for almost three weeks now. My SO is about to go away as well for work, and I’m going to be all alone and that’s making me a little anxious… I’m trying to see if I can have a family member or friend come by.
My heart and prayers go out to you, I hope your time goes well!
