Welcome to 7 Cups. My name is soulsings and I just passed my 9 year mark with 7 Cups. There are so many ways that 7 Cups has helped me like learning to listen to people, getting support chat in a group (click on Groups left side), following paths to wisdom and exploring the different communities in the forums.
Hope to see you around!
@soulsings Happy Cups anniversary!!! :D

Hi all. New to 7Cups... And dealing with anxiety. Finding that as a first-time homeowner, the lack of knowledge on issues has brought up stress and anxiety that I've never experienced before. Looking for ways to navigate these new feelings and starting on a mental health journey. Outside of my support system, joining up here is my first step in connecting with "strangers" and working on finding professional help next.
So far it's been helpful to let out a bit here and see how much people deal with. I'm so impressed with those who have been working on their own well being for extended periods.
@EarlofLemon58 welcome to 7 Cups. Owning a home can present one with many new situations. I am often on youtube asking how to fix a certain problem.
Hope you find this site helpful. What kinds of support are you hoping to find?
@soulsings I think what I want to work on is how to handle the stress/anxiety. When the anxiety hits, I sometimes have trouble sleeping and it can feel overwhelming for at least a short time. I try to make decisions based on information and data, but the issues that come up are usually topics I don't know the first thing about.
Part of the home thing is when finding an issue, I often go down the rabbit hole to worst-case scenarios. Trying to educate myself doesn't help. Logically I know it's probably not as bad as I end up believing, but the emotional reaction is stress that is difficult to deal with.
@EarlofLemon58 it is good that you know what you want to focus on because that gives you a guideline where to head.
If you care for suggestions, here goes. The Anxiety Community has many threads some of which may be of interest. To explore and or join, here is the link https://www.7cups.com/forum/anxiety/
Mindfulness has helped many people deal with anxiety. Here are some audio mindfulness practices with 300 mindfulneess exercises that you can listen to and not even leave the 7 Cup Site https://www.7cups.com/exercises/mindfulness/?showlist=1&utm_swu=9909&utm_campaign=New%20Member%20Drip&utm_source=Sendwithus&utm_content=Email%203%20-%20Just%20wanted%20to%20say%20hey
@soulsings Thank you for these linked resources. I'm still new and figuring how this all works. The welcome package is an awesome resource. But nothing beats wading into a group, tippy-toe at first, and exploring and thinking anew.

@healingsoul4892 Thank you so much. 🙌
Not even sure where to start
@Aiokitty Hi Aiokitty! Welcome to 7 Cups! First, what brings you to 7 Cups? 🩵 Maybe we can help guide you to the right place! We are so happy that you are here!
Depression, SEVERE anxiety, a host of things that go with them and no support system whatsoever. Left a bad relationship, moved to a new state where I know no one and my issues pretty much make me very isolated.
@Aiokitty Welcome to 7Cups! 😊
@AiokittyHi there! Hope you find support here. The Welcome Pack is a great start (Blue text is clickable)
Hello!

I fancy myself a neophyte writer, and also a neophyte in my journey of healing. I would like for this healing adventure to go well enough that I can help others eventually.
Love to all.
