It’s not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me. A Silent Guardian,a Watchful Protector,A Dark Knight. A hero can be anyone, even a man doing something as simple and reassuring as putting a coat on a young boy's shoulders to let him know that the world hadn't ended.

I only work on relationships that are: Current, Active and In Person between F/M, F/F, M/M. I do NOT work on the following types of topics: Friends, Family, Work, Crush, Break Ups, Loneliness, Anxiety or Long Distance Relationships .. I also work on Women's Issues Sexual Health topics are mostly ok as long as it is not a made up fantasy. I am NOT able to assist with Depression or Anxiety situations. My apologies I have made the choice to specialize in the type of chats that I participate in based on my experience here to date and what I have been successful with. Thanks for your understanding. I want you to connect with the best listener for you. With that in mind..... I will chat with you openly and honestly without judgement. Many times there is not a perfect solution. Sometimes just the best bad option at the time. My sole purpose is not to simply offer advice or to be an empathy machine. I’m not here to tell you how to feel or tell your what to do. I do feel what you say and do my best. 

Please READ If I did not accept your personal or general request and message you, I am unavailable to chat. Please do not message me. Hello, my name is Crys and I'd love to help you. Remember the invisible staircase [https://ideas.ted.com/why-are-we-so-bad-at-predicting-what-will-happen-to-us-in-the-future/] in front of you. (Courtesy of T).  As a listener, we are trained in Active Listening, which is listening in a way that shows compassion and empathy. Listeners will ask you open ended questions to help guide the conversation. It is meant to be a supportive environment for you to grow and learn more about yourself. We are here to listen and support you in your time of need, thus advice will not be given.  Advice is really easy to give, but it can sometimes be wrong or even harmful. I don't have a full understanding of your life or world. Any advice I'd give you would be limited and potentially wrong. You are the expert on you. The best thing I can do for you is to help you figure out the path that makes the most sense to you. Thank you for your understanding.  If you are suicidal please go to crisischat.org [http://crisischat.org] or imalive.org [http://imalive.org] to speak with a trained professional.

Ummm... Hoo-hoo?

Welcome to 7 cups of tea. We all live the course of our lives by choosing different paths. Each one of us are unique and special because of the choices we make for ourselves in life. And there is this one thing which connects all of us and makes us one...........it happens when we reciprocate love, feel the pain of others and offer consolation and peace to someone who is in dire need of it. The most amazing thing is, it requires nothing; but a sensitive, emotional, and compassionate heart and a little bit of time to be there when someone is in pain. At times, when it hurts a lot....a little hug, a tap on the back, and a soft cuddle could do the Midas touch. It is much more powerful than those thousand irrelevant conversations. Hence, if you want me to be with you, walk by your side and be a silent friend whom you need to vent out ........reach out for me for an in-depth and personalized conversation aimed at a process of not only listening but making sure you feel understood and healed.

As Salamu Alaikum  The weird listening wizard. Made In Bangladesh And So Easy To Understand, I am An Asian. Don't Be A Racist Claiming Asians Aren't Good In Listening. Serving This Ground Since 2016. I Claim Myself The Greatest And Classiest Because I Have Never Taken a Break From This Ground Since I Entered. Now Easy To Understand Because Other Listeners Here Who Show Too Much Excitement And Passion For Listening Often Break Their Own Mind And Hide Themselves Suddenly. I Can't Be That Careless Like Others, So That's My Biggest Point To Claim Myself The Greatest And Classiest of 7 Cups. Consistency Matters Most When The Task Is Voluntary. I Believe Taking A Break And Hiding From Those Who Seek Help Is Cowardice.  People Often Call Me A Narcissist, But I'll Say To Be A Narcissist, It Needs Some Unique Ability To Define Your Statement, And I Have That. And Lastly, Don't Waste My Time By Showing a Lack Of Consistency. I Trade Modesty, So Be Modest. Also, I'm A Muslim, So Choose Those Topics That Suits A Muslim Because It's Fun To Kick Someone When He Selects A Wrong Topic To Share With Me.

But please know that I'm unavailable for LIVE chats and can only reply offline, when I'm able to. (Responses may be several days delayed) So whether you're a new member or someone I've talked to before, if you need Live/ Immediate/ Urgent/ Regular/ Long-term support chat, please reach out to another available listener in cups.  You deserve prompt support, which I cannot offer, for an unforeseeable time! ❤ 🌻 Listeners:  I'm available for Peer Support and Chat Support only when I've accepted your request either through Chat Support/ Peer Supporter request forms or in the LSR, so please before messaging me for any of it, ask me in the room, as otherwise I may not be available to respond timely! Mentees/ Coachees: I'm so proud of you for trying your best to improve as a listener, and happy to hear any updates from you!  I'm typically unavailable for Live chats, and offline responses may vary, feel free to drop your questions though, if not too urgent, and I'll respond as soon as possible!  If you need a live chat, let me know a little in advance, mentioning the topic for the chat/ kind of support needed, your time/ availability in ET pr cups-time and hopefully, we can schedule for a live chat sometime!  Not available for any personal chats/ PMs unless stated/ agreed to otherwise. (Due to a high influx of messages, I'm unable to prioritize replying to messages with just a "hey/hi/ greeting", thank you for greeting me, but please do share a bit about "what" you're reaching out for, whether as a listener or a member, as it helps me understand how to respond better and faster. Messages with only "hey/ hi/ greetings" are missed often.)  I'll be around, in the forums and chatrooms when I can though, feel welcome to tag me in your posts or replies, happy to see you! 🥰 I've sadly not been getting notifications for all the tags lately, apologies if missed your tag. Feel free to send another tag or a personal message, if needed.  (I know) Extremely slow response rate: I'm on a break from several activities/roles here, but have been catching up with PMs and tags as much as possible. Responses will be slow and delayed, your patience is appreciated. Send a follow-up, if I missed your important message or if you need an urgent reply. <3 Support shouldn't be delayed, so I highly recommend browsing for other listeners when you need some emotional support. Please remember you are awesome and not alone here. ❤ Stay great and take good care, everyone.   Response time for all my current (regular) members/ listeners (and mentees) would vary as I am not logging in here regularly as earlier, I apologize if messages are delayed.  Send a follow-up, if needed.

(Take what you need hehe) I am Sun, Thank you for finding me here, I understand life isn't always smooth sailing, we all have our ups and downs. I know I won't be able to solve all your problems, but problems shared are problems halved, right? Or even if not halved, I do feel sharing can help reduce the burden of overwhelming thoughts and feelings in your mind ~ your mind is not a notepad, it shouldn't be a place to "store" thoughts and feelings ~ share away, your mind deserves to feel lighter and better and so do *you* ... Besides being a trained verified listener here, I can offer you a kind, empathetic and non-judgmental ear and help you guide through these dark times. Feel free to Talk/ Share/ Vent and I'll be more than happy to listen to you, provide you with a safe and comfortable space and help you feel better in any way I can. Please do keep in mind that I can't and won't advise you, I can help you guide through the roads, but the steering wheel will always be in your hand and the direction to choose will always be your decision solely since you know your journey and your destination, the best. Rest assured, you've got your passenger seat covered for any support and encouragement always!  I am a persun who believes in the power of sharing smiles, happiness, kindness, encouragement, hope and positivity And I would love to share these with you too if you allow me to (always at your pace and comfort of course).🌻 I am pretty respectful and polite to everyone and personally do not use any offensive language including any kind of passive-aggressive/ provoking remarks, so would certainly expect and appreciate the same from you. Everyone deserves basic respect and decency! 💛  People looking for inappropriate sexual chats and/ or interested in making any sexual advances towards me~ this is an emotional support platform ~ and we do *not* entertain such kinds of conversations here.

I don't take chats on topics such as chronic pain, panic attacks, sexual health and self-harm. Feel free to browse other amazing listeners for these topics and those not listed under "categories" HERE [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/]. ❤  💛If you are currently having crisis thoughts (active or passive, or actively harming yourself) *offers hugs*, I know how terrible it can be to be in this hopeless situation, please however respect our boundaries as a listener, our limits and that 7 cups is not a crisis platform, we do care and therefore ask you to reach out to relevant channels of support. You can find resources here:-  7cups.com/crisis, please do connect with a hotline. You may not believe it at the moment, but you are *not* unworthy of living, you are not taking space unnecessarily, you are not your current situation neither your current thoughts.

)I'm not always available online, so feel free to leave an offline message, and we can connect later) Hey there! Thanks for dropping by my profile. Below you'll find a bunch of random tidbits about me—feel free to skip over it if you're not into reading a bunch of nonsense! Work: On the journey to becoming a physician. I used to juggle a side gig as a hairstylist, but recently decided to focus solely on my medical career. Hobbies: Traveling, sports, volunteering, dancing, cooking, fashion, painting, poetry, and indulging in some quality time-wasting lol Celebrity Crush: Chris Hemsworth / Chris Evans I guess (No judgement PLSSS) Interestingly, my husband shares the name Chris, so I guess I just have a penchant for Chrises Favorite Sport and Athlete: Tennis / Roger Federer. His dedication and skill inspire me endlessly. Favorite Cuisine: Italian cuisine never fails to tantalize my taste buds. Dream Travel: Experiencing the mesmerizing beauty of the Northern Lights  Unusual Morning Routine : Ever heard of the 'reverse morning shuffle'? It's my technique where I stumble out of bed, navigate through a maze of discarded socks, and end up accidentally doing the cha-cha with the shadows on my wall before I've even had my first sip of coffee.  Guilty Pleasure : Singing loudly and passionately in the shower, regardless of how off-key I may be and practicing ridiculous accents when I'm alone, just to see if I can nail them  Kitchen Conquests: A strong 8.5 out of 10—definitely not too shabby but there's always room for improvement. Bread creations, Italian, Mexican, and the occasional Indian and Asian dishes. Watch out, Gordon Ramsay, I'm coming for your crown! (LOL JK) Life Motto : "Live with passion, laugh often, and never stop exploring." Embarrassing moment : They're plenty but one of my favorite stories... I was cruising along on a jet ski in the Pacific Ocean but in a moment of pure comedy gold, I forget to properly secure my passenger seatbelt and got catapulted off by a wave landing with a splash a little too far away for comfort! SUPER embarrassing and scary at the time, but now it's a hilarious story I love to reminisce about Weird Talent : I can recite the entire alphabet backward in under 10 seconds and believe it or not, I can twist my tongue into a clover shape Pet Peeve : Oohh I have many. I can't stand it when someone interrupts me while I'm speaking. Another one is when people chew loudly with their mouths open. And lastly, I get irked when people use "your" instead of "you're" or "there" instead of "their." It's a small thing, but it really grinds my gears :( Fun fact : I've traveled to over 10 countries and can say "hello" and "thank you" in at least five different languages. I have a habit of accidentally talking to myself when I'm deep in thought (IDK if that's a fun fact) OHH and I have a secret talent for making perfectly fluffy pancakes. It's my go-to dish for impressing friends at brunch gatherings Okay, this is a ton of crap—I might tweak or toss some later. _______________________________________________________________________ 💜 I'm a total poetry buff, so here's a little something I scribbled down after my little sunshine went on her big journey - In the quiet of twilight, your laughter rang clear,  A melody of joy, so sweet to my ear.  With each gentle hug, whispers of your name,  In memories cherished, where our love will remain.  Your favorite words, like sunshine in bloom,  Brought warmth to my heart, chased away any gloom.  In giggles and coos, your voice filled the air,  In moments of love, beyond compare.  The taste of strawberries upon your lips,  Shared giggles and snuggles, in tender fingertips.  Together we'd cuddle, in blankets so soft,  In our little cocoon, where dreams aloft.  Though tears may fall, like a gentle rain,  Your spirit lives on, easing my pain.  For you, my darling, are my guiding light,  In the tapestry of love, woven bright.  So here I write, with memories dear,  To hold you close, to feel you near. Though you've journeyed beyond, to realms unknown,  In my heart, sweet daughter, you'll always have a home. Forever loved, forever missed, forever cherished 💗

  Changing lives  HEY YOU ! YES YOU ! I'm proud of you to open up and talk about things troubling you than just bottling up your emotions with regret and guilt❤️ Remember...your mental health doesn't define who you are and what you're capable of... You're more than just a few problems and million obstacles .💀

I feel happy to help people as volunteer
