Hi, I'm going to say hello. "Hello!" I joined here near the end of April. (28th). It's nice to meet you all. I'm turning 24 in a couple of months. My life changed ever since my imaginary friends came back to life and I recieved my mental health diagnosis. My life has been full of ups and downs as I'm haunted by demons of my present day. I hope through my writings of self expression I'll be able to shed light on my own darkness. Ever since that day came I've been working towards living in harmony with the forces light and dark. Let me be the emissary of darkness into light.
Hello, @DarknessCovers
Welcome to 7cups, it's awesome to see you have joined! I'm sorry to hear that you are going through this, with the hauntings by demons, and your mental health in general. Writing of self expressions sounds like a really good idea, and I hope things get easier for you. I'm proud of you for coming here where I hope you can get the support you deserve. We wish you the very best.
Take care!
Hi everyone! I'm doing pretty okay I think. I don't really know because it changes kind of quick. I'm just very weirdly tired with my emotions. My favorite movie is probably "us" which is a new horror movie. It has pretty mixed reviews but I loved it! I found 7 cups one night after I searched through about 18 different support groups for LGBT people because I'm having some issues right now with that. Anyway, I'm so glad I found 7 cups!
Hello, @easyWest5007
Welcome to 7cups, we're pleased to see you have joined! I can understand how difficult it must be when your mood and how you're feeling changes often, but I'm glad to hear you are doing okay as of now. Ooo, 'us' sounds cool, I'll have to check it out since horror movies are a fav of mine! 
I'm sorry to hear that you're having some issues with LGBT at the moment, but we're all here for you and I hope things get easier. We hope you can have an incredible experience.
Take care!
@Ottie
Thanks so much for responding I'm glad that you read it!
@easyWest5007 I know what you mean about things rapidly going up and down. Here if you need to talk
Today, I think I am doing ok. I actually joined two days ago but have been too nervous to post anything or even speak to a listener. Think I'm breaking the ice today though. As far as movies, I don't really watch many. I suppose mine would be any of the anime movies that come out. I heard about 7 cups while trying to find an affordable counselor online.
Heya, @Oneiros325
Welcome to 7cups, it's great to see you have joined here and we hope you can have the best experience possible! I'm glad you're doing okay, and hope it still stands. I can understand how it takes a lot of courage to post here, so I'm proud of you for that - it's totally okay to be nervous. Anime seems cool! Well, we wish you the very best, we're all here for you.
Take care!
Hey there, @Oneiros325!
I'm fellow nervous newbie (I just joined today!) and it's really reassuring to find out that I'm not the only one. I just wanted to say thank you for writing this post. It must've been really nerve-wracking, right? /sweats
Anime is great!!! Do have a series you particularly love or are currently watching? Kyoukai no Kanata was the last series I really really enjoyed and Wolf Children is one of my favourite movies!
Hi. I'm okay I guess. Everything is always so up and down that i don't even really pay attention to how i feel, if that even makes sense. I just joined today. i'm hoping to be able to at least speak with someone soon once i get over the inital fear or obession of me being a burden and annoying.
Hi there, @busybeetalks
Welcome to 7cups, we're glad you've decided to join and hope you can have an awesome experience! I can understand how when it seems your mood is up and down so often, you just avoid really paying attention to how you really feel. We're all here for you though, and your feelings are valid! You're certainly not a burden and wouldn't be a bother to anybody but it definatly can be difficult to talk to someone - I'm proud of you for joining and taking that step towards the support you deserve.
Take care!
Hi, I am Edmur. I joined because I don't have friends in real life. So I would like to make a few. I am dealing with Apathy, Self-control, Isolation, Suppressed Anger & Chronic Depression. But I am trying to feel content within and not paying attention to negative thoughts.
Hi @Edmur16 i can empathise with your feelings as I feel much the same, just reaching out to say you are not alone in this I know that does not give a solution but some times just knowing you are not the only one makes it a little better.
@Rich62 Thank you for those words. Life is all about having patience, keeping the faith & and never giving up on yourself. Keep fighting my soldier. One day you will reach your destiny.

@Tazzie
Hi! I'm doing okay I guess. My favorite movies are The Little Prince and Isle of Dogs. I found 7 Cups because I googled 'free online therapy' and one of the results was 7 cups. I'm on the website right now but I'll download the app sometime. I am not professionally diagnosed with anything but I think I have social anxiety as I match the symptoms very well and experience them daily. I'm hopeful this community will help me :)
Welcome, @NyxKishi ! Glad you're here!
Hello, @NyxKishi

We're all here for you and I'm proud of you for taking this step in reaching out for the support you deserve, in the first place.
Best wishes,

Hi guys,
I am new here and still not sure how everyhting here works. I have joined this community because for the past few years I have been struggling with severe depression and anxiety. I have made some progress in the past year, which is when it got really bad for me. Since then I have been moving forward little by little. Today I have mild depression but still struggle a lot with anxiety and a little with self-worth. I know I still have a long journey ahead of me but making small changes every day.
Although for the last week my sleep schedule has been flipped and trying to get it back on track has been extremely difficult. Which has led me to again start feeling bad about myself and somewhat depressed.
My depression comes from mainly loneliness, from not having a strong support group here in town where I live. I do talk to friends and family on the phone or by text in a regular basis but it is not the same as being present or in the same town as you. After my last relationship I've been strugglin with my anxiety and meeting new people.
Anyways, I hope to be able to find support here, be able to give support to others and go throuhg these struggles together. 
Heya, @Moonlitte
Welcome to 7cups, its awesome to see you here and we hope you can have the best experience possible! If you have any questions, do feel free to ask - take as much time as you need, it can take time to get to grips with how everything works .
I'm sorry to hear that you have been struggling with both anxiety and depression within the last few years. I can understand how challenging that must be for you. I'm so proud of you for deciding to join here where I hope you can get the support you deserve. Small steps is the way to go and every little progress is an achievement and you're doing so well already. I can completly understand how lacking a strong support system/group can create lonliness, leading to depression. I hope things get easier for you! We're all here for you and wish you the very best.
Take care!

Hey I'm Jo :)
I'm doing okay. Some days are a lot harder than others recently.
My favourite movie is lord of the rings!
I found 7 cups online when I was trying to find someone to talk to!
