Hi everybody
My name is Eileen, living in New York. For a while I have feeling hopeless, depressed, anxious. I havent feel happy for a long time. I learned about 7 Cups through an online article. It has been difficult for me to share my emotions with family and friends. I dont know the reason. Maybe because I will feel judged? 🤷♀️ So I think that 7 Cups will help me to share everything (my personal issues) without feeling ashamed
@scarletMango3310 I'm glad you found 7 cups. I think it will help you to share with others in a safe enviornment and what is also inportant is that people will understand what you are going through with out you having to explain or justify
@scarletMango3310 it's so brave that you have come on here and shared your story. You're amazing ❤️ Remember that.
You've joined an amazing, supportive community. Here you won't be judged. Express yourself in ways you usually wouldn't. You're valued and listened to. Welcome to 7 Cups.

I know what you mean about opening up to family and friends. I have a good support group of family, but I find it very difficult to open up to them. I'm always worried about bringing them down with my emotions and fears. I'm greatful for 7 cups for an outlet.
@scarletMango3310
Hi Eileen and welcome to 7 cups. I often feel the same about sharing feelings with family and friends. It can be difficult especially when they can't understand. There are some very no judgemental people here and I hope you find one that really understands what you are dealing with.
New here and checking in, because why not? I'm dealing with some health problems, which have stirred up old anxieties and depression along with other new issues. In previous experience with therapy, I found talking to be as valuable as medication, so this seemed like a good way to begin exploring ways I can better move forward in life and self-improvmnet.
★ How are you doing?

Hi I'm Samantha. I'm in a point in my life where I want to make changes and to learn to love myself. It's frustrating because as a mom and a wife I put everyone's needs and dreams before mine. Now the kids are on their own and I find that I only have this last shot at a career and doing and being who I wanted to be , when I grew up lol! So many regrets and so much time has passed...I'm getting ready to go back to school, I want to get off anxiety medication, I want to work out and so many other things. I really let myself go. Emotionally mentally and physically. So this is my introduction. Thanks for reading this ❤️

Welcome Samantha! It is never too late to make changes in life. You cam do this! Be amazing and finally put yourself first, you deserve this. :) I am rooting for you.
Hi :) I'm Angelina and I live in Puerto Rico, but I consider Florida my home. I'm lesbian and have a girlfriend, but I'm 13. I've been feeling very stressed about the LGBTQ community lately.
Hi! I'm new here... today's my first day. And I feel so defeated.
@considerateKiwi2469 Welcome! I hope these last several hours have been treating you better :)
If you ever want to chat, message me and I'll be here to listen to you!
I can always tell when I'm about to decend into a dark place because my tinnitus gets really annoying. I can normally shut it out but there are times (like now) when it is so bad that it impacts my ability to think, relax and calm myself down. It keeps me awake at night and it makes me very anxious and aggitated. I just want it to stop.

@Tinman1693
Wish you could ge it to stop, it sounds really distracting. Does nusic help at all?
Hi. I am newsih to 7 cups and I can't figure out how to get into the chat roo,s which is contributing to my anxiety. No one has said what I have to do. Am I supposed to get points or anything? Can someone tell me?
@swanflyinggracefully
Hi
I am new too - so you may please try the following options:
1. Use the "Chats" tab and see what chats are on, and whether you can join any
2. Use the community tab - you can see some group chats there, if any is going on at the moment you try
Hope this helps.
I am new to 7 cups but I am familiar with through a friends who used to be on it. So I am confused, can someone explain the new format to me?
