Hi
Just introducing myself. I'm 33, struggling with mental health issues like worsening anxiety and depression, self hatred, drinking too much, etc. I havent told my family and dont want to bother them or make them worry. Some friends know but only the tip of the iceberg, from jokes and memes I post. So no one really know how bad and ugly it gets.
I try to use my hobbies to help. Currently video games and binging Netflix. I know, lame lol. So yeah that's me in a nutshell lol
Hey @WinHunter67, welcome the the community. Sounds like you're going through a lot, not having some kind of support to rely on can make things harder, I understand how difficult it can be to share our struggles with those around us but am so glad you're trying to make your self better and occupied through your hobbies and watching Netflix (that's not lame at all, honestly anything that does no harm but helps-- is good enough and worth trying). Anddd youre also reaching out in 7 cups now, it is highly commendable of you to try and seek support for yourself despite the challenges. I truly hope you find some company and support here and can work along your challenges. One day at a time ofcourse. ❤️
What hobbies do you enagage in usually? And how does it make you feel? If you'd like to share, ofcourse. ☺️
I'm 40 and my anxiety a d depression are also increasing. Hang in there, ik its a struggle but yiu are not alone
