I’m new here but I’ve been looking around and trying to figure it all out. It seems to be a great option for those of us that need to be heard and those of us that welcome listening. I deal with depression and anxiety but I just keep on keeping on. Some days are good and some days aren’t but it’s just a day. I look forward to becoming better acclaimated with this platform and each of you!
@Praise2TheKing Welcome!
@Praise2TheKing. You sound like me. I am trying to learn how to connect with people here. I am fighting social anxiety and depression.
I became a listener because I had similar problems. I just wanted to help people because nobody listened to me when I was having trouble, but that's exactly why I want to listen to other people so that they can tell me/the other listeners everything and don't have to stuff it into themselves.

I'm hoping to learn to be a listener and help
@Hope Hello, I'm Moose!
@Hope welcome!
@Hope Hello everyone.
I have been going through some major health problems that have led me to some major life changes. I've never been sick before and now I've been in and out of the hospital for months and had to leave my home that I cherish to stay with my daughter so she can help me get better. I know. Very lucky to have a daughter that is helping. I'm grateful for that. Still all the extreme changes I've had to go through, some by choice, some not, are taking a toll on me. Especially because I was already grieving the loss of my son and trying to get back on my feet when this happened. Sorry if this is too much info. And thanks for listening.
@SallyCat Welcome!
Chronic illness is rough to live with, as is grief. Being chronically ill comes with its own kind of grief - having to grieve the loss of your old life. Going through so many changes at once must be overwhelming.
Don't worry about oversharing on this platform - it's here to be a space to vent your feelings without judgement. 😊
@Hope I am in need of emotional support please.
Hi! My name is Lindsay! Well I'm a listener and I'm here to support people with their situations especially if there extremely sensitive because we live in a very judgemental society. I like to bring lots of comfort and joy in these conversations.
