Bio
I'm a 7 Cups intern sporting a BGS, AA, and AS where I studied psychology and social welfare. I have a big heart and bigger ears (for listening)(actually my ears are quite small). Continuing on, I've dealt mostly with relationship conflict, emotional issues, and identity disorders.

Crafting -- How metalworking helped me with my Anxiety Disorder
Hobby Zone / by MrAleczander

...See more Just as the title says. I struggled with terrible anxiety for many years, panic attacks several times a day and constant trembling. I thought picking up a hobby might help me "distract" myself. I got on Youtube and was randomly led to a chainmaile bracelet tutorial. I thought, 'That's pretty impossible, but there are steps and I have all of the tools.' I'm very inattentive and struggle with focusing, as well, but when there are clearly defined steps I can succeed. So, I followed said steps and eventually I got ETSY-good at making maile. End of story. Go on Youtube or Instructables and find your hobby today! (edited titled by @fluffyunicorns84 - changed cure to help with ...... due to discussion afterwards)

...See more I didn't see this type of thread listed, but it certainly should be. Hi, I'm Aleczander and I'm a Bipolar. Not the most novel issue out there but definitely something deserving of aid. It's a vicious disease and isn't always manageable. For people who can't weather the ups and downs, holding a job can be virtually impossible. If any users on 7 Cups have knowledge of resources for Bipolar-friendly employment (and keeping the jobs themselves), it would be appreciated.
