Note: I am unavailable until further notice. Apologies. I'll make a note here when I'm around as a listener again.

I'm Flow and I'm here to listen. I've been through a lot and I know just how much having someone to listen to your problems with no fear of judgement can help. I have personal experience of mental illness, both within myself and within family, including depression and bipolar disorder, as well as experience of the unhelpful symptoms that can arise such as self harm or disordered eating patterns. I am happy to listen to whatever you may want to talk about, whether just about your day or about a bigger problem that is eating away at you. If you don't know what to talk about, that's okay too, I understand that sometimes it's hard to put things in to words but you need someone to be there for you regardless. I am still happy to sit with you until you are ready to find the words you need. If I'm online, then please feel free to start a chat. If I'm offline, then send me a message and we can set up a time to connect. Take care.

Some of my life experiences:

((A bit more about me and my interests outside of 7 cups of tea:
I am working towards being able to make a living through full time performance as a classical singer but in the mean time I am a self employed teacher and will be studying music at university as a mature student starting in September. I used to work as a fast food worker, then a postal worker, and I currently volunteer as a primary school reading helper alongside my self employment. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing video games, and watching movies.))
