Hi everyone! Looking for help coming out, I'm 46 and want to be comfortable for once.
@Closet46 As a parent of a gay son, his coming out was a way for us to know him better. I know that each person's circumstances are different. I can only hope that the process is a positive one for you and that living authentically brings you peace and light.
@Tryingtobekindtomyself thank you. I know when I finally have the courage to come out I will be able to live the life I want. Being happy with myself is my goal.
@HappyMe46 You can accept yourself but still be unhappy with your circumstances. Please know that your orientation is as much a part of you as the color of your eyes. Accept that, embrace that. Then, work on changing the circumstances that surround you.
hello! i joined yesterday and became a listener yesterday.

Hello! Im new here! Im here because Im a very anxious person, and I really needed a space where I can learn how to manage my anxiety. I worry about a lot of things even the most silly ones (like this presentation, as english is not my first language Im so worried I misspelled a lot of things, or the grammar is wrong etc.), and sometimes I just need to vent about everything that is bugging me, let it all out so I feel a bit better (and I dont usually do that because I feel like it could be so much annoying.)
This seems just like a great community, ready to support people and help them. Im so happy I joined.
Hello, @Navocado
Welcome to 7cups, we're glad to have you here! 
We're all here for you and I'm proud of you for taking that step into reaching out for the support you deserve. I can understand how challenging your anxiety must be for you, and I'm sorry you are going through that. Sometimes venting and just having someone you can let your feelings out to, can really help. I hope you can have the best experience possible, here! Its great to see you around.
Take care!
@Navocado
welcome to 7 cups!!! :)
Hi, it's nice to meet all of you. I am new to 7 cups and so I'll tell you a little bit about myself. I am a mother to 3 kids, I am engaged, and I am a musician/singer/songwriter. I suffer from severe clinical depression and should probably go back to the doctor because I don't think that is the only thing wrong with my head. I think that I suffer from a personality disorder and that maybe that is the real culprit. Regardless, the point is I suffer from a mental illness and I joined 7 cups hoping that I would find my smile again. I Hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the day.
Hi there, @Dreamer060915
Welcome to 7cups, we're pleased to have you here! I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling with depression and potentially more at the moment. We're all here for you and taking this step into reaching out for the support you desevre is incredible, and I'm proud of you for doing so. I hope things get easier for you.
Best wishes,
Take care!
Thank you, @LittlebluP
That means so much to me. Thank you for your kind words and generosity. Things have certainly been hard lately but I think that taking the step to reach out for help is going to be what truly saves me. People like you are the ones that this world needs more of. The fact that you took time out of your day just to say hello means more to me than gold. It's nice to meet you and I look forward to getting to know one another through my time better on 7 cups. Have a great rest of the day ❤️
Aww, of course! I understand how difficult things must be for you, and I totally believe in you. I truly hope that you can have an amazing experiernce here! You're already doing an incredible job and I'm glad I had the chance to meet you here. Thank you too! 
Keep being awesome. 
@Dreamer060915
You are too ❤️❤️❤️@LittlebluP

Fall FTW!
I love the colors and the cool temperatures, as well as the produce I can get in fall (corn on the cob, pumpkins, apples. . .)
What do you like about it?
@whompus

Hello, welcome to 7cups! We're pleased to see you here and hope you can have the best experience! Oo, great season choice! Spring is very pretty.

@amethya
@amethya
Spring may not be my fav, but dang if I don't appreciate the new green and singing birds. What do you guys like about it?
Awh yesss, the green and singing birds are so lovely. Personally, I just love all the bright colours and the pretty flowers! Oh and the sun when it decides to come out heheh. @whompus
@LittlebluP
I just moved cross-country, and have a whole new climate of flowers to see. What're your favorites?
Aw that sounds so cool! I wouldn't say I have a favourite, or else I'd be here all day naming them
but I always love driving past daffodil fields with the bright yellow - very pretty. Do you have a favourite?
@whompus
@whompus It seems like everything comes to life, animals, greenery, and such.
Spring is so nice@amethya
