Hello my name is Jim I am dealing with a little bit of stress a little bit of anxiety little bit of depression here lately after 10 years of employment with Southwest Airlines I was forced to resign.The story is too long to get into but now I'm without a job in the middle of a pandemic with few opportunities for employment. In a few months I'll be 60 years old and I don't have a clear vision of my future currently and that bothers me. I was going to only work another three maybe four years but it seems someone had other plans. Now I am Concerned with how do I continue to support my family and be productive there are just moments where I have depression or experience feelings of anxiety. The one thing that helps me is I'm a believer and that is what keeps me going and gives me hope

Hi,
I found this site because I'm desperate for... something. My life just imploded and I can't take another hit. My life is full of people who use me as their counselor but disappear if I need something so part of me is dying to know if everyone is like that. Am I really all alone?
@Bluewolf320 I'm like that aswell
@Honey2017
welcome! helping others can be really fulfilling
Hi My names is Erica,
just discovered this site and hoping to find other people to connect with that may go thru the same anxieties as me. Ive been a health anxiety sufferer pretty much most of my life. Im 35 and a mom of 4 and I just dont want to waste my life being a victim to this terrible anxiety anymore.
Hoping to find some people who can relate.
Thanks!
@ERD2002 hugs. I am sorry to hear that. Hope u grt rid of anxiety asap.

@enlightenedDaisy5069 Welcome to 7cups my friend.
Hi everyone,
My name is Nasha and I have a slew of problems including major depressive disorder, addiction, ADD, grief, and anxeity. I am currently seeing licensed doctors to finally get my life back on track but I realized I lacked having someone just to 'talk' to about certain issues, you know?
One of my big stressors right now is a combination of grief (well, more so, illness in the family) and family issues. Instead of dealing with these issues by talking to someone, I keep finding myself just going numb or compartmentalizing everything instead of actually engaging in my emotions....so I came here :)
Thank you for listening <3
@NashaWriter85
