Hi! :)
I’m so glad you found me on 7 Cups of Tea!
I’m a trained active listener and I like to support people struggling with:
Anxiety, Bullying, Depression, Domestic Violence, Eating Disorders, Exercise motivation, Family stress, Forgiveness, Loneliness, Men & women’s issues, PTSD/trauma, Panic attacks, relationship stress, Self Esteem, Sleeping well, and Weight management.
I enjoy:
Helping others, spending time with and around animals, art, video games, outdoors (camping, fishing, hiking, going to the beach), seeing new places and discovering different cultures, I love learning about nutrition, sociology and physiology, cooking, and spending time with my family.
I have overcome a lot in my life. I was a child of sever abuse and neglect. I was bullied not just in school but by my own family. I was afraid of everything, I didn't know how to stand up for myself, I thought so poorly of myself to the point I couldn't look in the mirror most days. I struggled with my weight most of my life as well as my dyslexia. As I got older the results of my childhood formed into PTSD and I would often get panic attacks, sometimes with drastic results. My husband had severe depression when I met him, he was often on the edge of suicide and was on daily medication. Not only was he suffering from depression, but he was extremely underweight. He would almost never eat and when he did, it was small portions of junk food. From the moment I met him I have worked hard to help him become what he wanted. He is now off medication, strong, healthy, has his depression under control and even found the motivation to give college a second try (hes doing amazing). I have been through a lot of therapy as well as self-helped myself get control of my Anxiety, PTSD, panic attacks, and weight.
I want to be able to help others, I want to listen and cheer you on! Sometimes we forget how special we are. I want to remind you of that! I want you to know you are never alone and, more than anything, I would love to listen to you. I truly care and have a bleeding heart for anyone who struggles. If I’m online, then please feel free to start a chat. If I’m offline, send me a message and we can set a time to connect! I’m so thrilled you are here!
