New To The Anxiety Support Community? Introduce Yourself Here!
Let us know more about you, what brings you to 7 Cups! We are glad you are here!
Hi, I'm Marshall, I'm FTM, and I've been experiencing anxiety symptoms for a while but always thought it was a part of my ADHD until my therapist pointed out that they were, in fact, symptoms of Panic Disorder. I've also been dealing with family issues regarding support of my transition.
Hi...I haven't been diagnosed with anything...but I'm sure I have something to worry about. Hope we can help each other out with our problems
H! I'm new to this and just wanted to introduce myself. I suffer from generalized anxiety, panic disorder, and agoraphobia. I'm trying to get it under control, and I thought one good step might be meeting people like me, since people don't really talk about this kind of stuff in "real life". I'm happy to be here :)
@greeneyes121815 Hey greeneyes, welcome! Good for you for taking a step to get your anxiety under control. You're right, I think meeting people here is a really good step! It's a nice safe place where you can just express yourself and feel supported. :)
Too bad people don't really talk about this kind of stuff in "real life", isn't it!
Hi! I'm Kayla. I've never been offically diagnosed with anything, but I believe I have been suffering from anxiety/ panic attacks for at least ten years. I don't have many people in my personal life to talk about these issues with so hear I am. :)
@Kmc22 Hi Kayla, welcome! Glad that you're here, you'll find lots of supportive people here who you can connect with, I'm sure.
Once you learn more about panic attacks, you can certainly start to look back and identify certain situations as a panic attack. I've found that with myself for sure.
Good luck and come on by the anxiety daily check-in forum to say hi! :)

Hi! My name is Aimee just joined, am a long time anxiety sufferer and overthinker of everything!
I am very good at hiding it though and appearing fine when inside I am falling apart!
I am a bit of a loner, love to read and hang with my dogs.
Hi my name is Morgan. I've had anxiety as long as I can remember but recently it's been much worse. A close friend has been having health issues and my parents have decided to move from a 3hiur drive away to a 3hr flight away. I've been starting to have panic attacks just sitting at my desk at work and I don't know what to do to not feel so overwhelmed.
My husband is a wonderful support but he does not understand anxiety. He frequently tells me to just stop think about things that stress me out. Oh, if only it were that easy.

Hello Morgan, I am Destiny. I too have suffered anxiety, panic attacks, and severe agoraphobia. I so understand you. Bless your heart.
@Destin2live thank you! It's nice to meet people who really understand :) Good luck!
@Nestingdoll are you on any medications for it
@Mayank71 I am and have been for 9 months. It helps but I have recently had to increase my dose
@Nestingdoll
hey :) I completely understand how you feel. I've had anxiety for ages but recently I just can't tolerate it! I had a massive panic attack and my desk and now I'm signed off work! My partner is fantastic too but he can't solve the problem! I don't feel like anyone can! If you need to talk you know where i am :)
@Flylikeabird13 thanks, I know how you feel. I wish I could take some time away from my office, I know a lot of my stressors come from work
@Nestingdoll. I know how you feel. Have very similar problems. It's just not that easy to stop thinking about things
Hey, my name is Nora. I suffer from severe anxiety and ptsd. I'll save the personal details for anyone who wants to chit chat. (:
I'm just glad to be here. I look forward to bettering myself. My panic attacks have progressively gotten worse and I want to do everything I can to tame them. ❤
@Blondiee8 welcome! I am new here too and also struggle with severe anxiety. I'm happy to chat anytime!
Hi I'm Juliet. I have had anxiety my entire life. It happens on a daily basis for the most part and I've tried everything to calm it down or stop it, nothing seem to work anymore.
