Bio
Hey There!
I am so glad that you've found my profile. I'm a verified Listener who has been with 7Cups since October 2015. I'm a pyschology graduate and a supporter on various self-help websites and forums. I enjoy helping others and helping them to understand any thoughts and feelings they may be going through.
I want you to know, first and foremost, that I am here to talk with, listen to and hopefully, guide you through your difficult times and help you overcome and understand what you are going through.
I specialise in Self-Harm, Depression, Anxiety and Panic Attacks though I am more than happy to support you through anything you wish to talk about. You can see the list of topics I talk to most of my members about by scrolling down my Categories.
I am a passionate writer who also loves listening to as much music as I can absorb, as well as gaming during my down time (you can almost certainly find me flicking through my Steam library).
I've overcome a lot during my life and having been diagnosed with Chronic Depression since I was 15, any day can be a challenge - though it can always be overcome. Life can be difficult at times and that is absolutely okay. It can also be overwhelming and hard to cope with sometimes and that is why I'm here.
Hopefully I am able to help and support you through whatever it is you need. I am here for you.
Though I am on the website most days, I work most of the time so I may not always be available for Live Chats. However, please never hesitate to open up a chat with me and start talking and I promise I will respond as soon as I can and talk you through whatever you need.
You are important.
You do matter.
And I care.

Great listener! They were fantastic. So incredibly patient and kind to me. Helped me feel a lot better. Thank you BugInARug
This person is truly an incredible soul and helped me tremendously. We nearly talked all day and they were so patient, kind, and helpful with my issues. I am so grateful. Thank you for being such a generous person and willing to listen to a perfect stranger.
Great person to talk to. My first choice to go to out of all the people I've talked to.
Chatting with her is the most natural thing ever. And I feel so young when I talk with her: she is so COOL! We talk about everything and it does feel like talking to a friend. It really transcends all time and space.
I highly recommend her. She's a nice listener and she helps you to see things with a different perspective. Is one of the best listener that I've talked to if not the best. You won't regret it.
Awesome listener! She listened to all of my problems, offered insight, and then chatted with me until I felt more stable. She shared in my interests, and talked to me like an old friend. I am very glad to have found another caring human tonight :)
Amazing listener
