Just need to vent

1in8billion September 5th

I feel like I’ve had to struggle hard to achieve anything in life and I still don’t t get the results I desire. I’m not looking for fame and fortune but want to live comfortable and relatively stress free.

I’m getting old and tired and feel like I can’t stand this feeling anymore. I’ve lived an honest and humbling life yet I can never seem to get ahead. I’m approaching mid fifties so a lot of time has passed and don’t know how more time I have left.

these past few weeks have been especilly hard for some reason. I randomly almost break out in tears.

Hello, I hear you loud and clear, I'm in a similar situation age-wise too, and so I come on 7cups several times a day to connect with a few people and work the forums. I started several years ago on 7cups when I was manic and on the verge of sh. I talked with many of the free Listeners and this site was a main source of my recovery. You're not alone! We are all in this together. Keep reaching out and give yourself a lot of credit. Self care is the key! When you learn more about yourself you will better learn how to care for your needs and prioritize and advocate for yourself. You deserve to be happy! Find out what works and if there are toxic people in your circle, shrink your circle some more until you are 100% comfortable and taken care of!~

Tag me any time!

Blessings, Day
