I hope everyone is having a beautiful day or evening. You're worth love and happiness. Be better today than yesterday, that's my goal.
I just joined 7 cups yesterday, I'm trying to start managing my self-esteem. I hope you all have a good day today!
Hi I'm new as a listener here. I've been on and off 7 cups of tea in the past years looking for help with certain struggles. Now I want to give back what I've recieved from this community of listeners.
Didn't join in July haha, however hello people! I'm new and wouldn't mind becoming friends with the July peeps :P
Hi! I'm from MA (in the US) and I recently moved across the country to Arizona so I could live with my boyfriend. All my friends and family live on the east coast though and I don't know when I'm going to be able to see them which has been making me feel extremely lonely. I thought I was going to be fine with the move but I keep getting frustrated by living in a new place. My anxiety has gone through the roof. I miss everyone I'm close to. I miss the places I used to go to. I have chronic illnesses and the heat exacerbates them and I keep wondering why I thought this was a good idea and keep feeling like I should've waited. I can't move back to MA right now though and I don't know what to do.

I can relate to your story I have 100 present depression.and it is hard to have depression:-(. IN the inside I am☹️🙁😕😟😔😶😐😞😓😫😩😓😥😢.but on the outside in and😁😄😃😀🤗😜😝😛.and it hurts I cry every night thing how can I get free from depression.
@pandameamaiduncornlover I'm really sorry! I'm going through similar feelings. All I want to do is cry. I lost my dog a week ago. He was my baby. I think he took the place of my daughter when she moved out. I didn't really realize how much I loved him until he just isn't here anymore. He attacked my husband for the second time. I tried finding a rescue that would take him but no one. I begged my husband not to have him put to sleep but he did it anyway. I hate him for that. The dog had never been aggressive to me at all he was my protector. I think the dog sensed something in my husband he didn't like. I honestly wish I had lost my husband instead of my dog.
@passionateSpruce7800
totally feel your pain; my mom and I had to put a dog down a couple weeks Ago that we had for 13 years. It was so sad. She was the sweetest little dog. She had a heart attack. Thought she was having a seizure at first. I started a new job and left my moms and miss the dogs so much. I'd really like to have one but money and the right place is always an issue. I understand I'm so sorry.
@lydiamae8 Welcome
Just posted my hello to another thread, but this one seems more active maybe...I'm new here, and I'm usually very private but I look forward to a kind environment to possibly share some things anonymously and feel maybe not so alone with my thoughts and feelings (I'm on the verge of a panic attack just taking this step so be gentle plz) I feel super self conscious.
@SnailOwhale11 Welcome!
I'm new and looking for a place to share anonymously, too. It's a big step to reach out to others.
@charmingWest1286 I'm so glad we both found somewhere to find peace and possible resolve to churning thoughts and emotions ❤️
@charmingWest1286 I too need someone just to talk too! I'm so depressed and have been crying for two weeks. I lost my dog and he was my baby!
@SnailOwhale11
Nice to meet you. I hope you do feel that way and that this will be a beneficial experience for you.
@PistachioLemon thank you ❤️ I already feel so much more comfortable knowing that there are kind, loving people in this community.
@SnailOwhale11 Hello! I'm new too and immediately connected with what you posted. I'm very anxious about posting about myself. I hate feeling vulnerable. So pats on the back for both of us that we took this very small, first step. Yay us!
@enviroguardian I'm so glad I instantly feel warm and belonging with the responses I've gotten in only a day. It's so refreshing to be able to talk to people and them understand ❤️
@SnailOwhale11 I have nothing else to live for. My marriage is crap my job is awful. I just don't want to be here anymore. I miss being happy
@SnailOwhale11 Hi! I'm here for similar reasons too so what you wrote really spoke to me. It's hard to battle back anxiety especially right now. Hope this all helps. :)
@SnailOwhale11
don't worry im like that too on my first day and today is just my second day :) and don't worry because your helping another person too and remember have HOPE :) God bless you 
@SnailOwhale11 Hello! Today is my first day here. I'm sure we will both find out places in due time!
Have a wonderful day
@tsukikori
Welcome to 7 Cups tsukikori! Indeed, a lot of good happens on this site. Hope you experience the same!
@SnailOwhale11 I really miss being happy. My life is over. I'm just tired of trying to survive in this world
@SnailOwhale11
I can honestly relate with the feelings you describe - itsnot easy
@SnailOwhale11
I feel you i'm also too private I don't talk about my feelings at all
Hi everyone! I'm new too and hopefully starting to get the hang of everything! Hope you all have a lovely day!
☺️
Hi everyone! It feels kinda strange to talk about personal stuff, but this site was recommended by a local clinic. I'm in a really uncertain place, even before the pandemic hit, and I'm feeling even more hopeless and stressed than usual. I constantly wonder if my chest is tight and it's hard to breathe due to the virus, allergies, or because I'm working up to a panic attack. I'm unemployed and while I'm lucky enough to have a place to live and family to support me, I have no idea what my future looks like. It's hard to talk to my friends because it just feels like complaining and I don't want to worry my family more when they have their own issues to deal with. So it makes me feel better that there's a place like this to talk. Sorry for venting in the self-introduction chat 😅
@Littlebird1225
Hey there, don't worry about venting on here! That's the purpose of this site afterall and I'm glad it can be of some use to you. While we listeners cannot give advice, we will always be here for you to support you and hope that you feel better after letting things out of your chest 
Hi, I am in a weird place right now. Just want to share things anonymously.
@adaptablePlace8317 Hey welcome to 7 cups. Feel free to open up mate. No judgements whatsoever
