New to the 7 Cups Community in January 2018? Say Hello here! And get to know others who joined in January too!

Hi, I joined today as I'm considering therapy. I never liked being shoved into therapy while I was a kid and never found it helpful, but recently I've struggled with a lot of stress in college and from having started a new relationship a few months ago. I've mostly been feeling a lot of relationship anxiety and unnecessary fear of losing my boyfriend of three months. Before spending gobs of money on therapy, I'm trying this site first just to reason things out.

Thanks,

Hello,

Im new here, I been on here for almost a week. Im currently coping with a lot of anxiety and depression. Im a single mother and often times needs support and a ear. This sight seems very helpful and very supportive. Im really excited about being here!

Hello there. My name's Santo and I just joined a few hours ago. I was too nervous to actually explore the site. Hehe. I discovered this site thanks to a dear friend of mine and due to searching up questions regarding self-esteem issues and self-loathing problems. I haven't been diagnosed with anything but even if I don't have any problems, I'd also want to make a good contribution to the lives of others and into this community. That's it I guess?

Hi, I thought this would be a good way to talk to people who could understand or may have gone through a similar situation. But, even on a screen I find it difficult to express how I feel. I think my anxiety has been getting worse, Im even too afraid to leave my house now.

Hi I have problems with life please help me

I just signed up to see what this is all about. I live with Chronic Pain and have experienced my share of depression over the years.

Im not really sure how this community works but will keep exploring.

Hey, I joined to help others like everyone else 😊

Hi I just joined a few days ago, and should have posted in here to introduce myself. I am here just like everyone else, and pretty much for the same reasons.

Hopefully, I will be able to receive support and help, as well as, help someone else. Oh, I quit smoking three days ago as well, and I am struggling with a lot right now.

I am new. i'm not very hapy right now. don't really know when I'll by happy as I'm used to being seen as an idiot by others. I'll see what this place is about. I don't know.

Erm..hi,

So I joined yesterday after discovering this website. I guess its an experiment as to whether it helps me out of not. It looks promising and friendly but unfortunately, I find it extremely difficult to open up to anyone, whether its anonymously or not. At one point I had my mental health under control, I felt okay but recently Ive been spiralling downhill. I made a promise to myself and to someone I love and I intend on keeping that promise. If I can help others out too, thats a bonus. No body deserves to feel sadness. Everyone deserves happiness and I hope myself and you all find that within this website.
