My story:
I am not too new to 7Cups.
I used to be a listener on here in my teens. The website looked quite different back then and was very basic.
Recently I left a toxic relationship that didn’t serve me nor my partner. I felt quite alone and isolated having walked away from a person I thought was my forever. Though by believing so I had paid the price. I no longer was close to my family. I had lost friends along the way. My self-confidence and who I am as a person were all distant memories I was so desperate to get back to. This is when I thought I would create a profile again and reconnect to some of my past. A past of human connections, of love and support. I have been ever grateful to the listeners I have connected with!
In one of my past relationships I healed by being at the gym 3 hours a day and on call with my best friend 24/7.
In another I did not heal.
In this one I am learning to heal again. I often go by the sea as it calms me. The crashing of the waves, the smell, the wide skies - they comfort me. I go on long walks with music in my ears. After my legs ache - all the loud thoughts have become calmer.
I’m learning that each time our healing is different.
Each time it takes the passage of time but each and every time how the time is passed is different.
@ImALittleStuckInPast23 When I start drawing again even I feel like didn't got over my break up but It help me cope what I'm going through to make it through.
@SkyRanchDragonfruit24 I was actually thinking of getting back into drawing!! I think creativity is just a good way to express negative emotions in a more productive/positive way 😊🙌🏻 Do we ever really get over break-ups 100%? I think in some way we will always hurt a bit 😔 but it’ll fade a bit more with each passing month/year… I think.. I hope… Thank you for sharing this with me!! 🥰 *BIIIG HUGS* We got this!! ☺️

What helped me was always telling myself “this was a training session. Thanks to the training I’ve gotten from this relationship I’ll be more experienced if there’s a next time. And I’m forever grateful for that, If there’s not a next time, it’s their loss. Not mine bc I’m happy either way.”
