New To The Anxiety Support Community? Introduce Yourself Here!

Hi everyone. I'm not really sure how to do this so I'll just do my best. I have nearly constant hand shaking and headaches. My vision is getting increasingly worse because of the damage my anxiety has caused to my nervous system. One of my biggest fears, out of the thousands, is breathing. It scares me so much. I just know that I need help but doing that is one of the scariest things of all

Hi everyone I'm new on here. I've suffered from Anxiety my entire life however was only diagnosed about 3 years ago. After that i was diagnosed with depression as well. So now I am officially diagnosed with severe anxiety and severe depression. It's something i struggle= with day to day. Lately it's completely taken over me, it got some bad that i lost my job, failed 2 college courses, wasn't eating or sleeping, was having suicidal thoughts and even self harmed for the first time (i slit my wrist) and because of that i know have a scar (i try to hide oit as much as i can because i'm ashamed of what i did). It's been a long three years more importantly a long few months. But I'm glad to say that I'm doing a lot better, i'm actually sleeping, my appetite is coming back, my suicidal thoughts are going away, I haven't self harmed since that first time, and i'm taking a bit of break again (long story), and am more importantly i am back in therapy and its really helping me (even thought its making me realize how bad my family messed me up) and I have hope that it will all be okay one day. So basically what i'm trying to day is i know life is very hard and unfair and i know we all go through things and we are all fighting our own battles each and everyday but don't give up. I know its hard and at this moment you may not see anything but darkness but believe me there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Everything will be okay. Also if anyone needs someone to talk to i'm here.

Hi Guys my name is Abraham. My favriot color is purple and i am Bi. My parents got divorced when i was 6 and from 1-5 grade i got bullied. It was horrible becauses the two combined. In 7th grade i had a crush on a boy but he was super homophobic and i soon got over him i have problems still because he and his cousin bully me but im stronger now and will not hesitate to stab anyone that comes in my path. Another thing that happened in 7th grade is that i got really sad that i posted something on my snapchat story that said, "Im just gonna hand on this noose." Someone in my class told the priceable and they wanted me to go to therapy so i went one day and they asked some questions and i made sure my answers sounded normal so i didnt have to come again and she concluded that im ok and we left, but deep down inside i wanted to stay. Right now I've been having some anxiey problems but i never had them this bad. I've been struggling with my sexuality, like i dont want to bi anymore but im ok now its weird because i never questioned my sexuality and iv been out to my friends for 2 years... Strange. Im not out to my parents and never plan to come out to them their not homophobic or anything its just i dont feel comfortable. So thats my life. 👍🏼😂😌

Hi, I have recently been diagnosed with BPD after being diagnosed with bipolar for years. I get severe panic attacks before I go to work. As a result I have lost the last 3 jobs I have had. I have started working from home as a rental agent. I think its dealing minimally with people, basically show them the house, the contract can be done over email and phoning them if they dont pay. So basically about 5 days a month of intense panic. My husband works shifts. If he is off and can come with me, I am good. If I have to do it on my own...sweat outbreak like I have been running a 5kay so when I meet the client Im even more self consious because I stink like a gym bunny. I am seeing my therapist in about a month (in my country there is a severe shortage of psychiatrists so visitations are far and few between). I try and workout as often as I can. I fell off the bus when it comes to food but I generally eat as healthy as I can. I started up an old hobby of mine. But dealing with people is exhausting. Perhaps the life of a hermit would suit me.

Hello people. I'm new to using 7Cups! I've been recently having issues with questioning what my purpose is in life and when I think about my future i feel numb sometimes. I'd like to get to the bottom of why I have these thoughts so I can rest my state of mind. If anyone is/has gone through anything similar it would be great to get some advice :)

Wadup everybody... im dieased, I wish I would die sometimes, but all it does is slowly kill me. For fun I sit in doctors surgery, go to pathologists, pop pills, sleep over at hospitals. My life generally sucks... my dad just lost our house from gambling and I have to take care of my folks, thank God though I have a good job... but it really sucks being sick, I would like to die sometimes cause the pain so much. But the diease wont let me.. today has been one of the worst nights of my life...

Hi everyone, my name's Sharon. I'm new to the 7Cups community and joined so I could help other people through my experiences and learn from others as well. I was diagonsed with OCD, anxiety, and depression in the past about two years ago. I've improved greatly since then. I'm currently working on how to manage social anxiety, stress management, and standing up for myself better to form healthier relationships with other people and become the best version of myself.

Hello everyone, my name is Maria. I just joined the 7 cups community and am excited to get help. I'm in college studying to become a pastry chef. I can't wait to get to know all of you.

Hello all! I have had terrible anxiety over the years, but I am gradually getting better every day. I have learned to distract myself and surround myself with positive things and consider myself now as a positive person. I am here for everyone and would love to make friends with you all!
