If anyone needs someone to talk to, I'm here.
Hello everyone! My name is Blake. I am an active listener with 7 Cups of Tea and have been one since August. These past few months have very enlightening for me as I have had the opportunity to meet and help many different people with their problems. One problem that I especially understand is depression. As someone who has struggled with depression for the past 10 years, I can safely say that it is not easy, but there is always help out there. Whether it is friends, family, or even neighbor, there is always support out there for you. If anyone here is feeling down or depressed, message me and we can always talk it out. And don't think I won't understand you because believe me I've been there and it sucks, but you can't give up. You guys are all awesome and are totally worthy of being happy. Don't ever forget that.
I have struggled with depression for many years. I have been on and off of pills like crazy. And currently I am taking multiple pills and seeing many doctors. Every time a see a doctor it's like I have a new problem. So right now I guess my defining words are depression,anxiety,bipolar, body image issues and eating disorder. I feel like nothing's working and I just need a break. I often contemplate suicide though I am almost positive I wouldn't have the heart/guts to do it. And recently I started cutting myself. I have lost all of my friends. And I just ache of loneliness it hurts in the pit of my stomach. Yet I can't help but push people away. Now to the point of having no friends. And college isn't too hard in the grades sense but it is so hard to do well when I can't even seem to function. And this morning I had a realization that my whole life, I've always thought that I will have to end up marrying someone who has a fetish for red hair. That no one could ever love me for me. I'm 20, and a girl I have never had a boyfriend nor have I ever kissed anyone, or anything to that nature. And I'm sorry for just throwing that all out there. But I have no one and even if I did I don't think I would want them to know.
