Hello everyone
My name is Kaya and I’m a college student. I came to 7 Cups to find a therapist or listener and stayed to try and get to know the community and find some help.
Ive struggled with anxiety my whole life, undiagnosed and untreated. My school counselors always told me to go and see a psychiatrist and I never got around to it. So I have some for sure unhealthy coping mechanisms and recently have just been spiraling into a bad place, mainly insecurity about where I am in my life and my age. (I was supposed to graduate college this year but it didn’t happen)
I’ll try to be more positive from here. I love nature, I love my dogs and I like to draw and paint to calm myself down. I also have found running to be the perfect way to relieve stress and anxiety temporarily, so I run 3-5 miles a day.
I haven’t even had this app for a day but I’m looking to meet some people and help relieve this stress in a healthy way. :’) sorry if this is formatted weird. Hope you have a great day <3
Good morning Kaya! I too am here to connect in a healthy way. I’m unsure how this works but I’m excited to connect with folks. I’m here if you’d like to talk
Nice to meet you!
