It’s not always about what is, it’s about how you feel about it. Don’t feel guilty if you feel like this. Don’t let loneliness get to you, as hard as may be. Find a family member or friend you trust, you should go to them. If you can’t trust anyone, there’s this website with people on it. It can be awkward talking to people, but it really, really helps. It’s honestly a lot better in the long run than walking through the problem alone, which can make it exhausting and much harder than it needs to be to get through.

Some people have trouble accepting love and nurturing when they feel they do not actually deserve it. Everyone deserves to be loved and cared for, and everyone is! There will always be somebody here to talk to and remind you what you deserve and the great things you accomplish everyday. To so so many people, the sun would not shine without you! You are loved, appreciated, and cared for even when you do not believe that. You are never alone or forgotten about, and you will always have somebody to turn to. Everyone on 7 Cups is here for you

Why doesn't taking care of myself come naturally to me? I think I might be schizophrenic, but I'm afraid if I bring my concerns to a doctor, they'll tell me there's nothing wrong even if there is, because I already think I have it. What do I do?How do I let go of my past?Why do I want bad things to happen to me?How do I try to have motivation to do anything? How can I break my phone addiction?Why do I always feel either numb or sad?Why can't I move on from my old life(before I moved back to my home country)?I'm stuck in the past. All I can do is think about all my mistakes and what I missed out on. How do I let go?How can I start a writing career?
