♡ Newbie Hub – Check-In ♡

Hello!

I’m doing okay. I graduated college last spring and have started a new job, but am still trying to navigate the new environment and the parts involved in the job while being neurodivergent. Is there a neurodivergent forum/chat on 7 cups? I haven’t been able to find one, but I’m still figuring out how to navigate the app and might have missed it. I have also been interested in starting therapy, but having a hard time getting that started with my insurance and the office I’m with, so I thought I’d try this out in the mean time.

Thank you! I hope everyone is having a good day : )

Down tonight really down buned out. Too much going on in my usually secure mellow world. Now total disaster it like everything I felt lucky about dodging or fortunate to not have to exsperiances in my life has come to visit me in 3 yrs over and over. I am stable I think or just numb to the pain. Lol that is for listing and for letting me write it too.

New to 7 cups, too anxious to find a listener yet because of social anxiety but looking for support with a tough relationship and issues related to my 2 month old baby. Things have been hard and I don't think I have anyone left who wants to hear me cry to them.

Hi. I just joined 7 cups. Just trying to figure out how everything works. I joined because I have severe social anxiety. I only leave my house a few times a month. During those times I have to psych myself up for a couple of days. I really would like to get back into the world. I just don’t know how to take that first step. My communication skills are very poor. I even have anxiety about writing this:

I’m new here!

i’m not doing great, but in my typical way of dealing with things i’m taking it day by day and trying to see positives in everything.

Unfortunately because i suffer from a chronic disease, which in turn has caused me to suffer from severe anxiety and episodes of depression from the age of 16, I’m unable to work and therefore cannot afford private counselling, so this platform seemed like a safe space i’ll be able to talk about my thoughts, feelings and struggles whilst speaking to people who may be going through the same!

Hi there,

My depression and anxiety are at an all time worse. I can't seem to find any light or glimmer of hope. I'm very lonely and fearful. I rarely leave my house. I lost everything end of last year in an attack. My child's father has been keeping my child from me. It should be noted he is also me and my child's abuser. The judicial system has failed us. He's the main reason I've become a shut in.

Trying to find some light, some hope, a friend or 2. I'm tired of being so sad and hopeless.

thank you so much 🥰

hello. I am here because I suffer from depression with some anxiety. Currently I am under a great deal of stress and have lost (to death, moving away, or just too busy) all my close supports. Night time is difficult for me because I lay in bed longing to talk with one of my closest supports. So I am hoping to get some support here and someone to listen when I need to talk.
