@Hope Hello Hope. I joined 7 cups to help manage social anxiety and loneliness. I am also new and am still completing the steps. I do hope that I can eventually become a great listener for others going through a similar issue.

@Hope I joined 7 cups because I have struggled with mental health and still do. But also because I need 20 volunteer hours for a social welfare class.

@blackUnicorn1607 I hope this helps your mental health too as you help others but don't forget to make some time to attend to yours as well :) And good luck with getting your hours in!

Hi all, my name is Cari. I joined for support as I am losing health insurance end of the month and my therapist suggested this site. I have been diagnosed with anxiety, depression and PTSD. I also have ADHD. My son was born at 28 weeks gestation and I've had to go back on meds, etc. I've always struggled with depression and anxiety so I'm grateful I started seeing someone when I found out i was pregnant again. I had PPD with my daughter and after my ectopic pregnancy, so I knew there was a chance. Just didn't think it would be from him being born premature. He spent 8 months in the hospital and I would often sleep there with him.

I hope 7 cups can help connect me with others who can help me cope. Looking forward to talking to others,

@Caremate255

Hello Cari, I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult situation. I was born premature so my family understands the struggle you're going through, it's scary and isolating when you have a baby who you want to care for so badly that's too fragile for you to touch. It's also sad to hear that you'll be losing a therapist, but I hope that the community here on 7cups can be a source of comfort for you. We'll always be here to listen and be with you.

Hey everyone, Im Omar and im 13 years old. I know thats young but lately my parents have been calling me really rude things like a waste of money and useless and lazy etc. . Ive been cyber bullied about 3 times and I recently had my only friend leave me. I cant make friends in the real world because of how I look and how big of an introvert I became. Ive been so insecure of how I look and I just want someone to listen to me and I really want to live up to everyones expectations of me but I just cant no matter how hard I try.
