Bio

"I am glad you have found me here at 7 Cups! I am happy to listen to you on many topics. I have experience in lots of different areas - anxiety, depression, and mental illness, families, and relationships, love, school, college, or work-related problems, financial stress, healthy living, food, and special diets, I can also offer support for chronic pain, illness, and disabilities.

If I am not online then you are welcome to leave me a message - but please tell me what you want to talk about so we can get off to a flying start. I will get back to you when I am next able, but please bear in mind that I get a lot of messages and I will reply to the most urgent first so if you just say hi, do you really just want a hi back?

If you are a teen turning 18 soon then you can apply for one of the Teen Transitioning Team to reach out and support you through the transition from the teen side to the 18+ adult side. The form is here ~~~> https://bit.ly/7CupsTTM

At weekends my response will be slower as that is usually my time off from 7 Cups, and I may not respond to any PMs or new requests till Monday. I hope you understand that. We all need time for ourselves to recharge our batteries and relax.

ONE STEP AT A TIME
"We all have different-sized footsteps that we leave behind on our journey through life.
Sometimes we can change the size of our footsteps, the imprint, the impact, the direction.
Sometimes our footsteps land on rock and they do not show, or they land on sand and stay for a while,
Other times they get washed away by massive oceans or powerful waves.
But each and every footstep is important in so many ways.
Ways that we may not even know about.
Watch your step, think about your steps, plan your next step, and the rest will follow."
Listening ... one step at a time

Quote of Acceptance
When we don't accept an undesired event, it becomes Anger,
When we accept it, it becomes tolerance.
When we don't accept uncertainty, it becomes fear,
When we accept it, it becomes an adventure,
When we don't accept other's bad behaviour toward us, it becomes hatred,
When we accept it, it becomes forgiveness.
When we don't accept other's success, it becomes jealousy
When we accept it, it becomes an inspiration.
Acceptance is the key to handling life well !!

Butterflies are a symbol of hope that we can all change from a small brown grub into a beautiful amazing butterfly! One step at a time!

Pearls are a great symbol of the grace we create, for the oyster creates its greatest work of art from an irritant!

Adapting To Disability

Disability Support / by MistyMagic

1 day ago

...See more Discussion on Adapting to our disability. Adapting to a disability can be a profound and multifaceted process that involves physical, emotional, social, and psychological adjustments. This journey is unique to each individual, shaped by the nature and extent of the disability, personal resilience, available support systems, and societal attitudes. Some of these points might relate to you, but all can be helpful. Here are some key points to consider: Physical Adaptations 1. Assistive Technologies: * Mobility Aids: Wheelchairs, prosthetics, and walking aids can enhance independence. * Hearing and Vision Aids: Hearing aids, cochlear implants, glasses, and braille readers improve sensory functions. * Communication Devices: Speech-generating devices and adaptive keyboards help those with speech or motor impairments. 2. Home and Workplace Modifications: * Accessibility Improvements: Ramps, wider doorways, and modified bathrooms accommodate mobility aids. * Adaptive Tools: Specialized kitchen utensils, adjustable desks, and ergonomic furniture facilitate daily tasks and work. Emotional and Psychological Adaptations 1. Acceptance and Mental Health: * Grieving and Acceptance: It’s normal to grieve the loss of certain abilities. Counselling and support groups can aid in processing these emotions. Think about making a post here in the 7 Cups Disability Support Community and find emotional support from others. * Positive Mindset: Focusing on strengths and capabilities rather than limitations can foster a positive outlook. 2. Building Resilience: * Self-Efficacy: Believing in one’s ability to manage and overcome challenges is crucial. * Stress Management: Techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, and physical activity can alleviate stress. * Overcome ‘brain fog’: take steps to help yourself concentrate and remember, but also be kind to yourself and make sure that you get enough sleep and good quality rest. * Mindfulness and Stress Management: Practices such as meditation, journaling, or breathing exercises can help reduce stress and improve emotional well-being. * Professional Counselling: Therapists or counsellors specializing in disability or chronic illness can provide coping strategies and support. Social and Interpersonal Adaptations 1. Education and Advocacy: * Awareness Campaigns: Educating the public about disabilities can reduce stigma and promote inclusion. * Self-Advocacy: Learning to advocate for one’s needs ensures that appropriate accommodations are made. 2. Support Systems: * Family and Friends: A strong network provides emotional support and practical assistance. * Support Groups: Connecting with others who have similar experiences can offer understanding and shared coping strategies. Visit the Disability Support chat room [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=2_b0dd39dc0ad3f07akKj6u2oym2BA4i8pC6eGFA] here at 7 Cups and share your voice with other like minded individuals. Practical and Financial Adaptations 1. Financial Planning: * Disability Benefits: Accessing government or organizational support can ease financial burdens. These vary from country to country so be sure to investigate and ask. * Employment Support: Programs that assist with job training, placement, and accommodations help maintain economic independence. 2. Skill Development: * Rehabilitation Programs: Physical and occupational therapy can help regain or improve abilities. * Education and Training: Learning new skills or adapting current ones can open new opportunities for personal and professional growth. Societal and Structural Adaptations 1. Policy and Legislation: * Accessibility Laws: Ensuring public spaces and workplaces comply with accessibility standards is crucial. * Anti-Discrimination Laws: Protecting individuals from discrimination in employment, education, and public services promotes equality. 2. Community Integration: * Inclusive Design: Urban planning that considers the needs of people with disabilities enhances mobility and participation. * Cultural Inclusion: Promoting diverse representation in media and culture helps normalize disability and fosters a more inclusive society. Adapting to a disability is a comprehensive process that encompasses various dimensions of life. It requires a blend of personal determination, social support, and systemic changes. By focusing on strengths, leveraging available resources, and fostering inclusive environments, individuals with disabilities can lead fulfilling and empowered lives. How have you had to adapt to your condition or disability? What would make it easier to adapt for you? Do you have any tips to share to our community that may help others to adapt more easily.

Pain? P A I N? PAIN!PAIN!PAIN!PAIN?

Disability Support / by MistyMagic

February 15th

...See more February brings the start of the Disability Support Community focus on Pain! We all get pain. Some of us get pain sometimes. Some of us get pain most of the time. Some of us get pain all of the time! So whatever your thoughts on pain, or level of daily pain, or threshold of pain (and we will talk more about that later on) read on and let's find out more about pain together! This will be part of the 'Pain Cafe' series that will include open chats in the 'Disability Support' [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=2_b0dd39dc0ad3f07akKj6u2oym2BA4i8pC6eGFA] room, as well as hosted discussions (hosts wanted! message me!) [https://www.7cups.com/@MistyMagic] that will be advertised in this thread so please reply if you want to be tagged about future posts, and discussions in this series. The 'Pain Cafe’ is somewhere informal that is a safe space for us to learn and share together. We can come together and have a coffee, tea, or juice, and choose our favourite cake or cookie too! With the bonus of no calories or crumbs! First let's spend a little time discussing “What Is Pain?” Pain is weird, right? It’s both a physical and emotional experience, sometimes sharp and immediate, other times dull and lingering. It’s your body’s way of saying, “Hey, something’s not right,” whether that’s a stubbed toe, a heartbreak, or even stress manifesting as a headache. But pain isn’t just about suffering—it’s also a teacher. It tells you where your limits are, forces you to pay attention, and even helps you grow. Ever notice how people who’ve been through tough times often have a deeper sense of empathy? Pain shapes you, for better or worse. And then there’s the strange part—how pain can sometimes be subjective. Two people can experience the same injury but react completely differently. Some folks push through insane amounts of pain (think athletes or soldiers), while others feel every tiny discomfort intensely. It’s all about perception, past experiences, and even brain chemistry. Oh, and let’s not forget the bizarre cases where pain doesn’t work the way it’s “supposed to.” Like phantom limb pain - when someone loses a limb but still feels sensations where it used to be. Or chronic pain, which can be where your body keeps sounding the alarm even when there’s no real injury. Or chronic pain, long-term pain from constant re-injury or inflammation. At the end of the day, pain is just part of being human. It sucks, sure, but it also reminds us we’re alive. If pain is a warning signal, listen to it and allow healing. If pain is chronic or misleading, it can be important to retrain the brain and nervous system to stop overreacting. Learning to recognize the difference allows for better pain management and quality of life. Pain is a complex sensory and emotional experience that signals potential or actual harm to the body. It’s essentially the body's warning system, alerting you to injury, illness, or danger. Pain can be categorized in different ways, such as: * Acute pain – Short-term, typically caused by injury or illness (e.g., a cut, burn, or broken bone). * Chronic pain – Long-lasting pain (lasting more than three months) that can sometimes persist even after the initial injury has healed (e.g., arthritis, nerve damage). * Neuropathic pain – Pain caused by nerve damage or dysfunction rather than an obvious physical injury (e.g., sciatica, phantom limb pain). How Does the Brain Perceive Pain? The perception of pain involves a complex process that includes sensory input, nerve signaling, and brain interpretation. Here’s how it works: * Detection (Nociception): Specialized nerve endings called nociceptors detect harmful stimuli (heat, pressure, chemicals, or injury). These receptors are located in the skin, muscles, joints, and organs. * Transmission: The nociceptors send electrical signals through sensory neurons to the spinal cord. From there, the signals travel up to the brainstem and thalamus, which act as relay centres. * Processing in the Brain: The thalamus sends the pain signals to different brain regions: * Somatosensory Cortex: Determines the location and intensity of pain. * Limbic System: Processes the emotional aspects of pain. * Prefrontal Cortex: Helps with decision-making and how to react to the pain. Pain Perception: Your brain interprets the signals as pain and decides how to respond—whether to move away, seek help, or endure it (we all know that feeling don't we?) Modulation: The brain can amplify or suppress pain using neurotransmitters like endorphins (natural painkillers) and serotonin. This explains why adrenaline can make you temporarily "ignore" pain in emergencies. Why Does Pain Feel Different for Everyone? Pain perception varies based on: * Genetics & Biology (Some people have a higher pain threshold). * Psychological State (Stress and anxiety can heighten pain). * Past Experiences (Chronic pain sufferers often have altered nerve responses). Pain isn’t just a physical sensation—it’s also influenced by mood, expectations, and memory. This is why two people can have the same injury but experience pain differently. Over to you! Q. What do you think— is pain a necessary evil, a friend, or just a glitch in evolution? Q. Do you have pain? How would you describe it? Sharp, Hot? Stabbing? Dull? Share with us. Q. Tag someone that you think might be interested in joining in with our 'Pain Cafe' and the series of forum posts here too!

Screen? or No Screen?

Parenting & Pregnancy / by MistyMagic

3 days ago

...See more Screen time for babies and young children! This is a topic that sparks a lot of debate among parents, caregivers, and experts. It's hard to avoid screens entirely in today’s world, but the key is finding a balance. I wanted to discuss this with you all to see what you think, whether you are a parent-to-be, a parent or grandparent, or even great grand-parent, or if you are just someone that came upon this post and want to contribute - this is your world too - so let’s hear what you think! Today, screens are everywhere, watch, smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop, tv, or cinema we see and use screen technology. But, where should we be starting (or not starting) with babies and young children? We know that screen time can be used as:- a learning tool ❌ or ✅ a baby minder? ❌ or ✅ a soothing influence❌ or ✅ What else do you, or will you use it for? Let’s dive into the pros and cons with some real-life examples to make it relatable. ------------------------- Pros of Screen Time * Educational Content Screens can be a great tool for learning if used wisely. Apps and shows designed for young children, like "Sesame Street" or interactive apps like Khan Academy Kids, can teach early literacy, numeracy, or even emotional skills. For example, a 2-year-old might learn to recognize shapes and colors by watching a show like Bluey but does that excite them and make them hyperactive after watching? * Engaging and Fun Screens are entertaining, which can give parents a much-needed breather. Let’s be real—sometimes, you just need 20 minutes to cook dinner or answer an important email, and letting your toddler watch the tv can make that happen. * Exposure to Language For bilingual households, screen time can expose kids to a second language. Watching cartoons in Spanish or French can help them pick up new words in a fun way. A 3-year-old who watches shows in multiple languages might surprise you with phrases they’ve learned! * Bonding Opportunity Watching a family movie or an educational video together can be a bonding experience. For instance, sitting with your pre-schooler to watch Dora the Explorer and singing along can spark fun conversations and shared laughs. Do you agree with these? ------------------------- Cons of Screen Time * Impact on Development Too much screen time can take away from essential activities like playing, exploring, and interacting face-to-face with others. A child glued to a tablet might miss out on hands-on play, like building blocks or finger painting, which are crucial for motor skills and creativity. * Sleep Disruption Screens, especially before bed, can interfere with sleep. The blue light emitted can mess with melatonin production. For example, a toddler who watches videos on an iPad at night might struggle to fall asleep, leading to crankiness the next day. * Addictive Nature Some apps and videos are designed to keep kids hooked. If you’ve ever tried to take a phone away from a screaming toddler mid-YouTube video, you know the struggle is real. This dependency can make it harder for kids to entertain themselves without screens. * Limited Attention Span Fast-paced shows can condition kids to expect constant stimulation, which might affect their ability to focus on slower activities, like reading books. A pre-schooler used to flashy cartoon edits might lose interest in a quiet puzzle or story time. Do you agree with these? ------------------------- Finding the Balance Experts often recommend avoiding screen time entirely for kids under 18 months (except for video calls) and limiting it to an hour or less per day for children aged 2-5. Link here [https://www.mykidsvision.org/knowledge-centre/screen-time-for-babies-and-toddlers-what-is-ok] But let’s face it, real life doesn’t always match the guidelines! Here are some tips for balance: * Interactive Over Passive: Choose apps or shows that encourage interaction. For example, a game that asks kids to match shapes is better than mindlessly scrolling through videos. * Co-Viewing: Watch with your child when you can. Point things out, ask questions, and make it a learning moment. "Look, that’s a triangle! Can you find another triangle?" * Tech-Free Zones: Create screen-free times, like during meals or an hour before bedtime, to encourage other types of play and bonding. * Set an Example: Kids mirror what they see. If you're always on your phone, they'll want to be too. Try putting your device down when spending time together. * Choose a slower speed setting like 90%so that the sound is calmer and easier to understand, and the words are more slowly pronounced can really help with speech recognition. * Using an anti-glare anti-UV screen cover can really help protect eyes. We all think about UV sunscreen and to protect our eyes we can use sun hats and sunglasses, but we allow our eyes to look at screens that may also produce UV light. So it makes sense to check and protect. ------------------------- Of course - Screen time is not inherently good or bad—it’s all about how it’s used. A little Paw Patrol here and there probably isn’t going to hurt, but replacing free play, family interaction, or outdoor time with screens could have long-term effects. The best approach is moderation and making sure screens are just one small piece of your child’s day. Now let’s find out what you watch and use on your screens for your baby or toddler. Are you a fan of a program that is calming or educational? Share with us! What are your views on screens for the younger generations?

Braille! - January is World Braille Month!

Disability Support / by MistyMagic

January 13th

...See more January is World Braille month Louis Braille was born on January 4, 1809 and this year we celebrate his 206th birthday! Born in Coupvray, France, Louis became blind at the age of 3 while playing with tools in his father’s shop. When he was 10, he was sent to the school for the blind in Paris, but there were very few books available at that time for people who were blind. Inspired by a system of tactile writing created by French army captain Charles Barbier, Louis Braille spent two years trying to simplify and perfect the code. When he was 15, the new code was ready, and was easier to learn and quicker to read. It took many years before the Braille code was adopted widely. The first book in braille was published in 1827 and in 1878, the World Congress for the Blind voted to make Braille the system of reading and writing for people worldwide who are blind. There ensued a War of the Dots and it was not until 1932 that Standard English Braille was established for all English-speaking countries. Braille is a tactile writing system used by individuals who are visually impaired or blind. The system enables users to read and write through touch, empowering them to access information independently. Structure of Braille Braille is based on a matrix of six raised dots arranged in a rectangular block called a "cell," with two columns and three rows. Each cell represents a character, letter, number, or punctuation mark. The dots are numbered 1 through 6: 1 4 2 5 3 6 By raising specific combinations of these dots, different characters can be formed. For example: * The letter "A" is represented by a single raised dot in position 1. * The letter "B" uses dots 1 and 2. * Numbers, capital letters, and special characters are indicated by specific prefixes. Types of Braille * Grade 1 Braille: A basic system where each Braille cell corresponds to a single letter, number, or punctuation mark. It is typically used by beginners. * Grade 2 Braille: Includes contractions and abbreviations for common words or letter groups, making reading and writing faster and more efficient. * Grade 3 Braille: An advanced system used for shorthand, often in personal notes or informal writing. Applications of Braille Braille is used in various formats and devices to enhance accessibility: * Books and Documents: Printed Braille materials are essential for education and leisure. * Labels and Signage: Many elevators, ATMs, and public spaces include Braille signage to * provide information. * Digital Braille Devices: Refreshable Braille displays and notetakers allow users to access digital content, including emails, websites, and e-books, through tactile feedback. Importance of Braille Braille is vital for literacy and independence among people who are blind. While audio technology is increasingly available (such as screen readers), Braille remains indispensable for developing spelling, grammar, and tactile literacy skills. It ensures access to a wide range of fields, from education to employment. Challenges and Advancements Challenges include the high cost of producing Braille materials and devices, as well as limited availability in some regions. However, advances in technology, such as affordable refreshable Braille displays, are helping to bridge this gap. Braille's impact extends beyond language; it is a tool of empowerment, inclusion, and equality, ensuring that individuals who are blind can fully participate in society.

What to Expect When You're Expecting!

Parenting & Pregnancy / by MistyMagic

December 21st, 2024

...See more What to Expect When You're Expecting: Tips and Resources Whether you're pregnant, planning to be, or supporting someone who is, it’s an exciting (and sometimes overwhelming) journey. Here's a basic guide to what you can expect and helpful links to get you started. Share with us your journey and any tips or thoughts you have on pregnancy and parenting! ------------------------- General Tips for Expectant Parents 1. Schedule Prenatal Care * Once you have had a positive pregnancy test or think you may be pregnant then that is the time to make an appointment with your doctor, as soon as possible. They can be your first point of call for confidential and professional care and advice. * Regular doctor visits ensure that your baby is growing properly and allows you to discuss plans, options and concerns. * Tests to expect: * Ultrasounds (to monitor growth and anatomy) * Blood and urine tests * Glucose screening (to check for gestational diabetes) 2. Take Care of Your Health * Nutrition: Focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and prenatal vitamins (especially folic acid and iron). * Avoid: Alcohol, smoking, excessive caffeine, and unpasteurized foods. * Exercise: Light to moderate exercises like walking, swimming, or prenatal yoga can help with stamina, mood, and delivery preparation. * Hydration: Drink plenty of water daily to stay hydrated. 3. Learn About Labour and Delivery * Research options like vaginal birth, caesarean section, or water birth. * Take prenatal classes to prepare for labour, delivery, and postpartum care. 4. Prepare Emotionally * Hormonal changes can lead to mood swings; don't hesitate to seek help if you feel persistently anxious or depressed (possible signs of prenatal depression). * Involve your partner or support system in the journey—attend appointments and classes together. 5. Plan for Postpartum Life * Research breastfeeding basics and consider lactation consultant resources if needed. * Stock up on essentials: diapers, baby clothes, and postpartum care supplies for you. 6. Stay Informed * Learn about pregnancy stages: trimesters, fetal development, and common symptoms like nausea or swelling. * Keep an open line of communication with your doctor for any concerns. ------------------------- Helpful Resources and Links * General Pregnancy Guidance * What to Expect (Official Site) [https://www.whattoexpect.com/] * March of Dimes - Pregnancy [https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrkLlPEDWdnBwIAAokM34lQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNpcjIEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1736016580/RO=10/RU=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.marchofdimes.org%2Ffind-support%2Ftopics%2Fpregnancy/RK=2/RS=XcMs1vVhA7DkRk5niTTk1yLMlLQ-] * Nutrition During Pregnancy * Mayo Clinic - Nutrition and Weight Gain During Pregnancy [https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle] * Prenatal Classes * Lamaze International [https://www.lamaze.org/] * BabyCenter - Prenatal Classes Overview [https://www.babycenter.com/] * Labor and Delivery Preparation * The Bump - Birth Plan Template [https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrkOYxnDWdnHAIAl0IM34lQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNpcjIEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1736016488/RO=10/RU=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thebump.com%2Fa%2Ftool-birth-plan/RK=2/RS=kv8SKtjL7n6puIQ2vsiSuweVbp4-] * Childbirth Connection - Labor Comfort Measures [https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=Awr.oGmUDWdnIwIA.1kM34lQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNpcjIEcG9zAzMEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1736016532/RO=10/RU=https%3A%2F%2Fnationalpartnership.org%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2023%2F02%2Fcomfort-in-labor-simkin.pdf/RK=2/RS=6y1YrO1Esb41Rf7nAXYYgZYraDc-] * Postpartum Support * Postpartum Support International [https://www.postpartum.net/] * KellyMom - Breastfeeding Resource [https://kellymom.com/] * Apps to Track Pregnancy (easy to google lots of different apps)) * Ovia Pregnancy Tracker [https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrLAC27D2dn6wEAp78M34lQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNpcjIEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1736017083/RO=10/RU=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.oviahealth.com%2Fpregnancy-app%2F/RK=2/RS=Aq7Aq.9x_6NXd38lIw52BrAnmK8-] * The Bump * BabyCenter [https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrkMR7ZD2dnDAIAlJQM34lQ;_ylu=Y29sbwNpcjIEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1736017114/RO=10/RU=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.babycentre.co.uk%2F/RK=2/RS=Xb.kKMywOuMUgSCwVN.fkHFxpmc-]
