Members - Welcome to 7 Cups! Introduce yourself Here!

I joined because my health insurance offered it as a mental health resource and even being in weekly professional counseling I still have so much to carry.

I am looking for support because I had been diagnosed with major depression since 2009, but can’t just take medication because of other chronic issues that the meds would interact and bad stuff can happen.

I also am 40 and still single and never married, but I want to be, so I can’t find any people in real life that can understand why I feel so alone. I’m too old for young adult groups, but not old enough to be in 50+ groups, but I am not divorced or widowed. I don’t even have family to lean on, because the ones left just belittle and criticize me. I also am SUPER shy, so it is hard for me to open up to others or meet new people without having something or some person in common.

I know there is the Support Circle for live group chats. But how do those work tome wise? I always seem to come in the middle of it instead of from beginning to end.

and are there any other group chats/discussions besides that? Like ones for specific issues or people groups? If so, where are they and how do they work?

Hello! I'm really trying to make an impact
