Bio

Hi, I'm Smoll. I'm in my early 30s, struggle with depression, anxiety, executive dysfunction, and probably a few other smaller things.


I'm not sure what all to put here.

More about myself; I'm nonbinary, AFAB if that matters to anyone. I like anime, Frierin and Dungeon Meshi have been my favorites recently. I enjoy watching animation in general, Arcane, Code Lyoko, Last Airbender, Blue Eyed samurai, Pluto.

I'm an artist but have had trouble drawing for a long while now.

May add stuff later but this is it for now.

...See more Hi hi. I have trouble just thinking, having trouble now typing, like my mind is generally blank if I'm not actively doing something. I never know what to talk about even with my friends and partner at times. I have things I want to do but I either don't think to do those things or there's so much i feel I need to do that I'm paralyzed by it and just sitting there seething in frustration with myself that I can't get up and do those things, even simpler things like taking a bath. I know part of its depression, part is anxiety, alot of executive dysfunction and indecisiveness, not sure if ADHD but definitely a struggle. Im in therapy and just started some new meds that have helped some. been able to do dishes, laundry, and cook a little. I wonder if anyone else has issues like this, this major brain lag?

My favorites right now being A Sign of Affection and The guy she was interested in wasnt a guy at all (anime and manga names are get rediculously long). What's your favorite manga? Does anyone have any recommendations of good manga series or one offs?

...See more I started Zoloft today, starting low at 25mg, half a pill, getting a really bad headache and feeling so nauseous, its a little difficult to eat. my psychiatrist said it may give me some stomach issues but uhg I feel not so great. Really hoping it doesn't last long. If I still feel like this tomorrow, I think I'll have to call in from work again

...See more I am new to 7cups and just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. My name is Smoll and I've struggled with depression since I was in middle school, in my early 30s now. started therapy just this year, not sure if I'm figuring anything out but it's nice to talk about things. I feel like my depression comes from abandonment issues, not knowing myself very well, cause and symptom I guess, not enjoying things I used to, can't really get excited for things, can't start projects or even small activities like reading a book most of the time. I feel so bottled up but have no idea how to get it out when there's this mental barrier keeping me from doing things that I desperately want to do. I used to love drawing but that's something I can rarely get myself to do anymore, I think ive drawn maybe 3 or 4 things all year and they were scribbly sketchy type things. I even got myself a decent drawing tablet with a screen on it to try and guilt myself into drawing but, no go, its sitting on my desk collecting dust. I think it's a mix of depression, anxiety, and major executive dysfunction. I'm trying to be patient and kind with myself but it's getting real old and it's painfully frustrating, feeling like I'm wasting my life away unable to do the things I want to for some unknown, abstract reason. I'm not sure what more to say I feel like I'm rambling a bit but hi, I'm into anime and animation, video games, I hoard plushies, not too rediculously. love animals, have 2 cats and 2 reptiles. It's nice to be here with everyone.
