How I discovered 7Cups (WARNING: MIGHT BE LONG)

...See more HOW I FOUND 7CUPS (WARNING: IT IS LONG) I never found 7Cups because of Tumblr, Twitter, nor Facebook. But I found it by googling it up. I was a lonely teen and a victim of bullying in school, I tried talking and socializing with other people.. but they would either feel awkward when talking to me, or would they ignore me at all. The popular kids would call me stuff like dorky, weirdo, loner, b*tch. The bullying kept on going that it made me feel bad about myself and affected my grades. Until, I made a friend. She was my classmate in second grade so I kind of remembered her. Everyday we talked and laughed.... until I notice a month later she's starting to get harsh and mad at me and saying stuff like "You're the worst person I ever met.", "Think of it, NOBODY is your friend here.", "You're so annoying!" and especially "Why am I even your friend?" I started to feel depressed and down hearted the moment I realized most of the things she said were real. So I wanted to talk it out to someone, but it can't be my parents because they would likely get shocked. I've talked it out to a teacher but it didn't help much at all. I have tried a lot of websites and hotlines where I can talk out my loneliness and depression. But none of them helped... Then, I googled up "Where can I discuss my problems online?" and the results came. The first result on the very top was 7CUPS. So I tried a little research on this website, and then tried out the Growth Path until step 50 and that's where I started to create this account. When I joined one of the support chats, I felt shy at first, but then I tried typing something there and sending it. I kept chatting and chatting and I knew that the people there clearly understood me. It made me smile and it made me felt like 7Cups was a second family to me. I want to recommend 7Cups to people out there with problems like mine. (Forgive meh if I have grammar or spelling errors here) > u <
