@theriverissinging wait sorry I just realised I forgot to answer the questions ;-; I’m doing pretty okay right now ^^ and I’m here so I can let out frustrations and maybe ask for some advice when I’m not feeling okay enough to vent to a friend or partner :)

I am new to 7 Cups. I am hoping to develop new friendships while offering and receiving support to and from people who are going through similar life experiences.

I am not doing the greatest I feel alone all the time. I want to talk and tell people around me how I'm feeling but I just can't. I am an empath and my personality is advocate. I am always helping others fix their problems but when I ask I'm always ignored so I guess I've learned to not even try and its killing me. Im here looking to learn what to do but I'm sure I will end up just trying to fix others.

@unassumingWater6981 Feeling alone and finding it hard to open up to others is an attemt to feel accepted dear. You are accepted and loved as you are though and that's something you'll discover for yourself soon. We are all here to contribute to that! Welcome to the community!

1. I'm doing... not so good tbqh. Which is kind of the motivator on why I made an account


2. I'm currently just not really happy with the way I... exist.. if that makes sense. I hope to kind of find answers I guess.

I’m not doing so good. I need to finds way to cope or get rid of my anxiety and depression. I want to enjoy life and have fun. But it seems impossible for me. I just feel numb all the time. I don’t want to feel like this.

Hello! I have recently been diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder. I've had dissociation for a long time, but always assumed memory gaps and people reporting how I was acting/seeming different was just my ADHD memory and such. I had a few times in life where a particularly bad alter took control of things. I hardly remember those times or remember them like I'm looking in. However, the last time was in 2005. Before technology was what it is.


I have been able to piece together things thanks to Google photos and maps, screenshots, conversations in text, etc. It's how I discovered what was really going on.


I'm now using technology to help me when I need to understand what happened when I dissociate. I'm also doing online video therapy. That's how I want to use 7Cups as well. Technology that can help me connect to others with DID and ADHD! I'm still learning about DID. There's not much research out there. I hate to say that I even doubted its existence at one time (I have an educational background in clinical social work).

Hello! I'm Splashoforange, and I'm here because I've been feeling overwhelmed a lot lately and I figured I'd try and work on myself to feel better. I've looked into finding therapy, and realised I couldn't afford it right now. One of the biggest thing I'm struggling with is trying to help someone I care about a lot who's depressed. I want to help them but i don't know how, and I read I need to take care of myself first before I can try to help others.
