welcome, Kay!! how have you been doing here so far?
Hi I'm SorrowfulDays. I have been struggling off and on with depression, childhood trauma, anxiety and other mental health issues for most of my life. Life has been very overwhelming and stressful lately and while weekly in person therapy has been helping me identify underlying issues and triggers I feel like I need to expand my support net with people who understand what it's like to have these feelings.
@SorrowfulDays
Welcome!! It sounds like you've been going through a lot lately. I'm glad you're here seeking support. It can be incredibly helpful to connect with others who understand what you're going through. If you have any questions about navigating the platform, I am here for you by reply or PM!

Welcomeeee
Years ago I found 7Cups, but I don't remember what I was searching to find this place.
I think I have mental illness. In 1987 I was diagnosed with a learning disability and making it through school was hard. But I did manage to get my High School diploma. Those years were hard years. I wasn't like the other kids. I didn't get to have fun, I made it through with hard work. I was on the bottom of the bottom, around the meanest kids. And they probably had issues too, only I didn't care because they were picking on me, and throwing things at me, and hitting me, and wrecking my things. I developed an inferiority complex. I also struggle with anxiety, ocd, and depression.
I'm currently 45 years old, and can't seem to master the art of friendships. No matter how friendly and kind I try to be, people would rather be away from me. I don't think it is because I mistreat them. I think it is because of my body language, and tone of voice. I think these things reflect what I've been through in life, and I think they reflect the issues I struggle with.
Most people seem to be only attracted to people who make them 'feel' good. I have no intention to make anyone feel bad. i just think the way I am does this to people.
I joined 7Cups because I need people in my life that understand me. I need people who are willing to listen to me. I need something that can help me balance out my emotions. There is a lot to me, and it is hard for me to write it all down in one post.
I work as Custodian for an Elementary School. I'm a 2nd shift guy, so most people don't even get to know me, nor do they care to get to know me. I have some interests: I like airplanes, so I build and fly R/C Planes. I like Music: So I collect a lot of different bands. I like God: I am a born again Christian. I've been this way since I was 6 years old. I like Computers: I use the Linux Mint operating system instead of windows in most cases. I used to attend Church, but stopped attending in 2020 ~ 2021. The problem I have with our local Bible believing Churches, is they are not friendly to me. Like I said earlier, I think my mental problems comes out in my way of being, and even other Christians don't want to be around it.
