Hi i’m orion i turn 18 this year.

If anyone ever wants to talk i’m all ears but i would also like to talk and for someone to listen and even give me advice. i hope tmrw treats you better than today
@okorionok11 Hi Orion. And welcome to 7 cups. I'm sorry to hear that you have been struggling for so long, this is a good place to find something to help you. It's certainly helped me.
I think many of us grew up in society that teaches us that we shouldn't need help and so we feel foolish for asking for help. You're most certainly not alone in that. But that totally misses the fact that it takes intelligence to recognise you need something and courage to seek it out. So I would like to congratulate you for taking that first step.
Have you tried the sharing circle? There's some good people to talk to there. And I've connected to some fabulous listeners. Not all of them are so skilled, but they've all taught me something. And I've read some really interesting forum posts that have helped me. There's something for everyone and probably lots I haven't discovered yet, so I'm confident you'll find something for you. Just start digging.
Best wishes and I look forward to seeing you around here.
