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

Hey, I just joined and recently discovered that I was actually depressed, so I'm working on getting better and telling my family. I'm excited to meet everyone also!

I came across 7 cups when I was googling about my depression and joined to write a comment in the thread I read. Its only been a few days but Im really finding it useful in managing my anxiety and depression.

Im on step 30 of the depression pathway at this point but havent really been on here to chat unless it has told me to post. Hi everyone! 👋

Hi everyone! I joined a few nights ago, i remember using 7 cups to talk to a listener myself a while ago and when i saw you could become a listener i just had to go for it, id love to help people in the same way i was helped.

Hi! Im Brandi and I live with crippling anxiety, depression and 3 beautiful babies too!

Hiay my name is Scott, I am 46 and have bene dealing with depresion on and off ofr about 5 years

I though I had it under control, and then 2017 hit me,

in the last year, My xwife and mothe rof my 2 children was nearly kiled by her now x husbound

My Mothe rwho lives with me has now got Dimentia and is getting worse.

i had to take both my children in to my home for sevral Months whisle the issuie with their Mum was ongoing.

and then on top of all this my long term girlfriend of 4 years decided to dump me.

I have been a wreck for the last 6 monts or so, this is one of the reasons I am on here looking for help and advise

Hi I'm new to all this stuff because I always thought it was just a "have some courage" but I've tried a lot and it's always really hard for me I guess I would say I worry a lot and that gives me anxiety and ruins my self-esteem and confidence.

Hey guys. I'm Lucas, 20, joined this website because I'm at a point where I feel like there are some big issues I need to work through. Some things just eat away at me and I never speak about it to family (I like to seem constantly upbeat and joke-y for them), so I'm hoping that I can talk about and work through those things here.

I joined 7 cups in 2015 and then drifted away trying to drown myself with alcohol. That needless to say did not fix my problem and only made more. I am in need of someone to talk to, but I'm so introverted I struggle with asking for help from friends. I thought it was easier to chat here and to get an unbiased opinion.

HI. I decided to make this account because of this crippling loneliness that I feel. I recently started working from home so I have fewer human interaction than ever and social media is making it worse when no one responds. I just wanted to try talking to someone.

Hello everyone.

I found this website earlier this week but was really nervous to join. Today is one of my better days and decided to take the next step in controlling my depression and anxiety. I've recently talked to my doctor about my mental health and I'm on medication for the first time. She recommended therapy, however I don't feel ready to do that yet. I mean it took me 5 years to admit my depression and anxiety with someone. I figured joining this community would help me acknowledge my feelings so I can be more open about it with family, friends, and perhaps a therapist. Hopefully it won't take another 5 years. Anyways, I'm glad i'm here. Have a good day.
