@SerendipitousWillow hello I am not sure if you have been able to talk to someone but I am a therapist and would be willing to chat with you

@SerendipitousWillow ~

Thank you for reaching out here in the forums.

I am really sorry you have been facing the challenge of depression for so long, and anxiety, as well.

I really appreciate you sharing what you have here, and if you would like to PM me, I invite you to do so, for private 1 on 1 chats.

Whatever you decide to do, I wish you all the very best, and hope you know this community is here for you.

Welcome to 7 Cups! I am a member, not a Listener, but I can relate to you feeling overwhelmed at everything there is here.

Everybody was a newbie at first! I am grandma-age and not a tech savvy as you young folks, so it was a learning curve for me just to navigate around all the buttons and options. I just started with following the prompts as I started my growth path. Then I connected with a couple of listeners, just to help with a couple of different issues, and they were short term ( but I still have them on my page to connect with again if I need to) Then I tried out some of the focusing exercises and poked around the forums. I found one or two that especially related to me, ansd you can do that too for anxiety- or whatever else you are dealing with. Later I looked in depth at the specialized paths with the in depth guides, and that is a treasure trove of helpful hints. That should getyou started. I think you will be surprised at the level of help here- - not therapy- but in some cases the next best thing. And you don't have to pay ( unless you can add a little to the jar like I did). We are glad you are here.

@SerendipitousWillow I would love to be here for you. I am a listener here at 7 cups and have had the same struggles as you. My user name is @chasingchaos Send me a private message. You are not alone. I will be here for you. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. There are tools and skills that you can develop to help you. You can do this! Looking forward to chatting with you.
