hello and thank you so much for signing up to be a listener!!
Hi everyone, Wanderer here (or Wio, or whatever really), very new to this whole thing. I've been going through some rough times recently regarding my family situation, job/cost of living security and generally just being adrift in life and giving in to anxiety and I suppose depression (diagnosed F41.2 as per ICD more than 10 years ago). I've been turning the worst counselor - the bottle, for some time now but recently some results were simultaneously hilarious and worrisome. ChatGPT mentioned this platform so I figured it might be worth a shot.
@WandererInOrciny Hello and welcome. Thank you so much for joining. 🤗❤️ I am sorry that you are having a hard time and hope you will be okay soon. Hope you enjoy your time.
Hello and Welcome! Happy to have you here.
@Heather225 hello, I was brought to 7cups to seek therapy after losing a relationship. But I wanted to try the free stuff first and it's helping a huge amount so far. I have noticed changes to my emotional awareness, life organisation, engagement with work and deadlines that I used to procrastinate from. I feel so much better and I look forward to continuing my journey ☺️
@Floweroffreedom Hello and welcome, thank you for joining. 🤗❤️ I am sorry about your relationship and hope you are doing well.

Despair. Need someone to convince me to hope.

Dear friend listeners, here are my answers to some of Heather's questions:
What brought you to us?
-> I was searching for volunteering in French to practice French. Instead, I found a Counseling Practicum site that is for free and that is just so amazing. I do not fulfill my practicum hours here, of course, but I do get a valuable experience that makes me grow.
What do you hope to find here?
-> I hope to find here experience, knowledge, growth. I want to experience helping, learn how to help better, and grow to be kinder and more helpful.
What are your goals for being part of the community?
-> My goal is to help many people and learn how to help them such that they achieve happiness and success in their lives. As for me alone, I want to improve my counseling skills and learn to be more effective in doing what I do.
