Introduce yourself.

Hi. This is my first time on this site, and I thought I should say something about myself before diving right into the midst of things.

My name is Sarah, and I'm 28. I don't know how long I've had depression but I remember thinking of and planning to commit suicide when I was 14. My depression has steadily grown worse in the last ten years but has peaked in the last three.

I'm a very anxious, non-combative person, which has made my depression even worse, especially considering I am in a very one-sided marriage with a very domineering man.

Hi everyone. My name is Dusti, I'm 29 and I have been battling depression and anxiety as long as I can remember.Some days are terrific. Some days are dismal. Every day is a fresh start.

Hiya! I'm addie and I'm 16 in two months. I've been through quite a bit, which I think helps me relate to others on here in a different way. I was forced out of public school do to severe bullying, but I hope to go back within the next year or two. I know do online schooling and I have no friends because of it, but that's okay because I'm extremely introverted. I don't talk much and I prefer to be by myself, but I love listening and helping others on 7 cups. I hope to go somewhere in my life, as I'm a firm believer in "You only get one life, make the best of it." I'm not sure what I want to do or where I want to go yet, but I think I'm getting there. Feel free to send me a message if you need any help, or if you'd just like to chat. I'm always here. (((:

Hello. I am Cadell. I am 16 and suffer from anxiety and depression. It's gotten increasingly worse the past year so I'm trying to branch out and talk with some people. I've reached out to family, and have been taking steps to improve my mental health. Glad to meet you all.

Hi just like you I joined today. My name is weird and you'll never remember it but I'm 14 years old. It is a powerful experience to be one of many feeling sad and lonely instead of the only one.

Hi Everyone My Name Is Jackie... I Suffer From Depression, I Want To One Day Be Able To Be Happy Again. I Hope I Can Relate Someone & Help People

Hi. My name is Antonio, but feel free to call me Anthony. I am 15, and about to get into High School. I suffer from depression since 8th Grade, all because I was bullied in Primary School and still sometimes in Junior High. On top of that, I had a breakup on 8th (I was not very well before I even started the relationship), and I started feeling very low great part of my days, lasting from a couple of days up to a week or so. Everything seemed to progress, but in fact I was only feeling worse with each passing day; I started losing interest in things that I once liked, I became distant from my friends, and I became very irritable and sarcastic with everyone, to the point I started feeling hatred towards almosteverybody at my School. I've grown distant from too many people I consider my friends on the last months, and sometimes I feel I do right because everyone I've gone to while I've been in "distress" has let me down in one way or another. No one in my school seems to care about me, not even my teachers andmy closest friends, and I also feel my family does not care on how I'm feeling or if I'm truly OK, unless I am physically sick. I've always thought what would life would be without me, and I've even thought of running away from my home, my school, and my life in the city, just to be alone, where no one can bother me, mock me, or pretend to be my friend, just to let me down when I'm of no use for them. I hope I can find help from you, because I feel my depression is worsening with each passing day, and I need someone I can talk to and feel better, even if I only feel better for just a few hours. I have a future project, and I don't want to throw it away at my age; please help me, I will appreciate it.
