Hi, I actually joined yesterday, but close enough I guess. Feeling down lately and thought I'd give this a try. I'm a 40-something guy who uses a wheelchair. I enjoy sarcasm and hate inspirational quotes. I enjoy writing but don't do enough of it. I might be having a mid-life crisis but hope I don't live to be ninety. I might just be mad at the weather. I qualify a lot of things. Any, hi everybody!

Hi :) I joined recently because I've noticed my anxiety has been getting worse lately. I'm not great at taking big steps like immediately scheduling an apt with a therapist, so am hoping 7 cups can be my stepping stone. It's hard opening up to people and I hope I get better through talking to listeners on here. I'm a 22 year old that works in STEM - i like to fold origami, go on hikes, and am learning to golf!

Hi there! Thanks for sharing!

I'm sorry you are getting through some difficulties and it's great that you joined us to be helped and supported! It's not easy to open up, as you said, but you just did it so you can be proud of yourself! Well, maybe you are not taking big steps but small ones to the right direction are more effective than a big jump! Nice thing you have your hobbies and interests, they can help when we need a relaxing moment or a corner where we can taste the joy for doing what we like to do. So keep on @Auxitras, you are doing great!

Hi, I just joined a little earlier this evening. I've been struggling with depression and anxiety for most of my life. I've been managing it but some recent events have been really challenging my motivation and ability to cope. I am a 32-year old obese woman, and unfortunately that defines a lot of my life. My body is the cornerstone of my terribly low self esteem. I am scheduled to get weight loss surgery in September. I should be happy, but honestly I just feel really down.

I'm an all around creative person who loves to experience and create music, art, crafts, great literature, and writing. Writing is my number one passion. Unfortunately, I have been dealing with serious writer's block for years now. I see a therapist regularly once a week for 45 minute sessions. However, lately I have been struggling with the other 10,035 minutes, so I am here trying to find a way to express myself outside of that weekly time slot. I am super sensitive, somewhat paranoid, and I can be a touch self-absorbed. As a result I have a hard time connecting with people online, and have tried forums before without much success. I am experiencing a lot of change this year, so I think maybe speaking to others more regularly will be good for me.

@agirlhasnoscreenname

A warm welcome @agirlhasnoscreenname !

Sorry for the last bad events you had and still have to face, some can be really hard to cope with. Trying our best is already like being half way to get over them! Speaking with supportive listeners could be of big help and even if you feel like conversing online is not that easy, it is worth it a try!

You can also have a look at our lovely communities ad choose the ones you feel to be interested in, here .

I'm sure this friendly community can let you feel the care and you need and deserve it! You matter to us. yes

Good Evening! I also joined yesterday, but having failed with my first two listeners, I did not decide to stay until I met an incredible one today. Seriously, he helped me so much! So, I decided to ride this out. See if I can wrangle this life a little better than I have up until this point. Never stop growing they say :) So, here is to us explorers! Good Vibrations to All ~~~
