New to 7 Cups in July 2020? Say Hello Here & Meet Others who Joined in July too!

Hello, I recently joined 7 cups because, well, I'm actually having random attacks of relapse, and having a difficulty controling my emotions and racing thoughts. I haven't done anything harmful for over two years and I personally believe I have grown quite alot. But occasionally, I find myself having urges or remembering something that would make me phyically upset. I couldn't continue my "Real Life" therapy sessions so the past few months I have been trying to do things based on what I've learned but in result, without a guide, It seems to only hurt me or I have over grown the coping skills I learned a few years ago. And not to mention that I have also lost close friends due to them just, not talking to me, and my partner being busy. My family members are either busy or just don't have time to sit with me and have a conversation.

I've also been disocciated constantly and blacking out more than I believe I should be, my grounding coping skills have not been working and quite honestly, I've just been a mess.

The only good thing I can say that is going in my life is the fact that I'm not as bad as I used to be or as bad as I know I can be.

Maybe I just need somebody to talk to/vent to, or just write it all down (Twice). I don't know. I hope you are having a better day than I am though. Stay safe everyone.

hi :)

i joined here because i've been suffering from anxiety and depression for a long time and wasn't able to get proper help due to my circumstances, and am happy to be here because now i can figure out why i've been Like That for so long and if my feelings are valid or just hormones

Hi today is my first time trying online services like this where I'm able to interact with people who may have experienced what I have been struggling with. There are a number of reasons why I'm here now, but to sum it up I've been struggling for what I feel was almost all of my life. I've been through some traumatic things in my life that I've kept inside and have only talked to a few people about my situation but I feel like I'm still drowning. I've come far on my own but I'm ready to finally be free and heal from my past trauma. I don't want to have to feel like I'm re-living all the traumatic things I've experienced anymore and honestly I want to better understand myself and possibly get a diagnosis of what could possibly be preventing me from living the life I know I can have. Until I am able to register myself into my school's counseling system when the school year begins, I need to start somewhere. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this.

Hi

I joined 7 Cups because I am struggling with weird dreams, depression, anxiety issues and the feeling of unworthiness. I struggle with life everyday. I hope by the time I will leave this platform i will have made friends who feel the same as I do and who will help me go through the pain i feel inside.

Thank you!!!

Hello I am new to 7 cups.

I hope to get better help in here and help others.

Hello, I am dealing with stress, depression, anxiety, and relationship issues. Actually, that is not quite right, my relationship is actually pretty good for the most part, except when it isn't. I am attempting to start a new business venture. Over the years I have tried to do this many times, and each time something comes up to squash my hope, determination, and confidence. I am now in my late 50s, went through some scary life-threatening illnesses, and decided it is now or never for my business venture. As soon as I put that out there, my son was deathly ill and mismanaged through the medical community (it is only through the grace of God that he is still alive), COVID19 happened, and my husband has become quite contrary to everything. My husband worked as a clinical virologist in one of our local hospitals before retiring. He is furious at how things are being managed and he feels this is not as serious as it is made out to be. He is calling it a scamdemic instead of a pandemic. It is very frustrating listening to him malign everything. He finds ways to sabotage my workday whenever he can. I have suffered from depression all my life, but the anxiety is new. I signed up for a very expensive course to help me get my business going and I am finding it difficult between my husband, my worries over my son, my household duties, and my current work commitments to find time to go over the material. COVID19 has also brought out the anxiety that I rarely ever had. I feel that my time is running out and I will not get a chance to create my legacy that I want to leave for my son and his future children. I am an artist and graphic designer. I am a productivity and time-management expert (not that you could tell right now). I am a mother, a wife, a sister, and a friend.

Hello!

I joined 7 cups because I'm looking for support with my anxiety. I've had a lot of anxiety attacks this past year, but now I'm just having a hard time getting out of bed and it feels like my worries are weighing down on my chest. On a lighter note, I love gardening or anything else that forces my to be outside! I'm also starting to get into anime and kpop, and I'd love to meet anyone with similar interests!

Hi everyone I am new to 7 cups and I cannot wait to help individuals who are going things I have before.

Hello everyone! I just recently joined 7 cups and I cannot wait to get started to help individuals as a listener!

Hi everyone! I'm Ember.
I made this account ages ago, but this is my first time using it.

I have a hard time making friends. I've tried joining clubs, I've gotten physically fit, I've worked on my social skills... I even moved to a new city for a fresh start. But I'm still alone, sadly. There might just be something wrong with me.

Anyways, nice meeting you. I wish everyone on here the best in their own journeys.
