Need to talk to someone?

More Filters

It can sometimes be difficult to find support from family members, friends, or like minded people. While you might have a best friend or a support system and network such as groups on social media, you might want to seek support without any social interaction.

Our listeners provide emotional support through active listening. Active listening helps process your emotional distress. The following page can be filtered to seek listeners who provide long-term help and support. You can also browse listeners according to your preferred language as well as for different topics amongst other filters.

7 Cups is a chat site/app that has different options to find a good listener. You can meet new people and text chat with other individuals going through tough times - you are not alone! Everyone goes through a hard time at some point in their lives and we are here for you. Whether you are facing relationship problems, panic attacks, struggling with substance abuse, loneliness, depression, anxiety, or any other mental health issue, our site/app is a safe space based on confidential, anonymous support.

A good idea is to consider what form of support you would like in the first place - we have plenty of options to explore and one of the best ways is to give them a try to find out what works for you. We understand that different people have different needs and preferences. All these support services are appropriate for different situations.

This page can help you seek a trained active listener to talk to through 1-on-1 conversations. These listeners come from different walks of life and all are ready to offer a compassionate listening ear to people who would like to talk to someone else. You can select their username to view their detailed profile page with their shared bio and other information such as whether they have lived experience of mental health conditions or topics, their reviews, as well as their training and other badges. While our listeners do not provide direct advice, their support can help you vent your feelings and concerns in a safe space and you can work together to figure out healthy coping tools.

Listener conversations can vary in duration according to your listener's and your personal availability. Some listeners have the option to schedule chats with them in advance. You can always browse for listeners and leave them a message so that they can get back to you with their availability.

There are several other ways you can find someone to talk to at 7 Cups. These include the group chats and subcommunities. We are glad you are taking the first step towards support!

Our group chat rooms are online chat rooms that serve as different support groups where you can send text messages 24/7. We are a global community with people from all over the world. Some chat rooms include the Sharing Circle room, which is a non-judgemental safe space based on the traditions of AA and similar support groups. This space can prove helpful if you need a group of people to talk to who can listen and get to know you over a long time. Sharing your feelings and experiences as well as listening to those of others can help feel supported. You can expand your support network and make online supportive friends and connections!

On the other hand, if you would like to interact with people and talk to someone over forums, we have dedicated subcommunities for over 45+ topics covering a wide range of mental illness support topics through various sub-forums. Our subcommunities provide support, awareness, events, as well as opportunities to participate in light-hearted icebreakers.

Apart from the above mentioned mental health services at 7 Cups, we have affordable therapy options allowing you to seek online therapy for mental health problems with an online therapist, licensed psychologist, and other mental health professionals. This support is affordable as compared to other online and offline services or other options like support through insurance companies. Therapists are also available to talk to throughout the week on working days.

While our community can help support you after you have lost someone else to suicide, 7 Cups is not to be used in the state of active/passive suicidal thoughts - for such cases, please visit helpful resources such as the Samaritans or National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. For a complete list of helpful resources, click here.

If you would like to gain further insight and helpful information about different mental health topics, you can visit our Community Questions and Answers pages, or read our Expert Mental Health News and Advice articles. Other main features you can explore include our self-help guides and growth paths based on treatment protocols available for free!

The bottom line is, you are never alone - 7 Cups is a community aiming to provide compassion on a global scale. There are various ways to talk to someone at 7 Cups. These include 1-on-1 conversations based on active listening and support through trained listeners, group chats with support discussions and Sharing Circles, and the subcommunity forums. Other features that you may find helpful include the growth paths, community questions and answers, as well as expert advice sections.

So, I just want to take a moment to tell you how incredibly proud I am of you for being here today. It’s no small feat. 🌻 I want you to know you are doing great, no matter if everything else makes you think otherwise! You Are Amazing! 🌟  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── About Me: 🌟 My name is Ezra, and it’s an lovely to meet you. I’m here to offer you a safe space to share whatever is on your mind. Whether you're going through something big or small, please know that you are never a bother to me. We can talk about anything at all. 🌷This chat is a place where i hope you will feel heard, supported, and never judged. Sometimes life can feel so lonely, like nobody understands, but please know—you don’t have to face it alone. We’ll get through it together. All the small steps we take matter and step by step we navigate the most challenging problems that are faced. I’m here for you, always. 💫 Please, if I’m online, don’t hesitate to reach out. If I’m offline, feel free to leave me a message, and we can find a time to connect. I'm so glad you’ve made it here. 😊  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── In case you have forgotten today… You are beautiful✨, You are seen👀, You are loved💕, You are worthy🏆, You are amazing, You are enough🌱, You are irreplaceable, You are important🌟, You are strong💪, You are capable🎯, You are needed,🧩 You are wanted🐶, You are enough🌈, You are amazing🎉 just as you are🌸  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── For my LGBTQ+ friends🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈: You are loved and celebrated here, exactly as you are. This is a space where you are accepted, welcomed, and cherished without any conditions. No matter your journey, your identity, and who you are is valid, cherished, and respected. Whether you’re exploring who you are or have known for years, you are perfect just as you are. ️‍🌈💛  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── 💛If you are currently having crisis thoughts *wraps you hugs if okie* I want you to know that I care deeply about you.I know it may feel like you’re in a hopeless place, but you are not alone.  You may not believe it right now, but you are worthy of living, you are not a waste of space, and you are so much more than what you’re going through. The world is a better place with you in it. We’re hanging on together, and one day, we’ll see how things get better, even if it’s hard to imagine now. You’re so incredibly brave and strong, even in this moment when you may not feel like it. Please reach out for help because you deserve support—you owe it to yourself to be here. 💛 While 7 Cups isn’t a crisis site and listeners dont have the right training, I want to share some resources that could offer you some help or support: Please take a moment to read this: https://metanoia.org/suicide/ Once you read that please reach out to someone anyone, Family, friend, mentor, school, counselor, church, hotline cups crisis page:https://www.7cups.com/crisis/   List of international hotlines: https://blog.opencounseling.com/suicide-hotlines/  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── Friendly Reminders: 🌻 Maybe some things don’t get better, but we do. We grow stronger. We learn to live with the messiness and adapt to what we can’t change. We may not always be fully okay, but we’re here, trying our best—and that’s worth celebrating too. 🎉 🌻 Your feelings are valid, and you have every right to express them. It’s okay to feel deeply, and remember that you won’t always feel the same way you do right now. 🌻 Mistakes are part of being human, and every choice you make, every feeling you have, makes sense in the bigger picture of your life. Someone else, in your shoes, would likely feel just the same. 🌻 And most importantly, love yourself, speak yourself, because: 🌻"Life gets hard, and it gets messed up, When you give so much, but it’s not enough, When the highs are too high, and the lows are too low, Don’t let it kill you—don’t let it break your heart." ❤️ 🌻 Healing does not mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls our lives  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ─── Let’s Walk Together: Sometimes, being human can feel heavy. Life can feel overwhelming, and the weight of our thoughts can be too much. Whether it's panic, sadness, anger, frustration, or numbness—you don’t have to face it alone. I will not have all the answers, but dark places are so much less scary when you’re not alone.  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───  With love, Ezra, (Ez, essie, estre, Z, zar, zaresoaus, fai, starsie, stars, cool grandma) #hopeforhappyfeet #meepmeep #ByeByeCliques #EdGang #UnicornsForSienna  ─── ・ 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───

-On break. Messages may not be responded to- Hello, it's nice to meet you! I have a B.S. in Psychological Sciences and have plans to become a psychiatrist. I am in the EST time zone and am typically available at night. I take all chat topics, including casual chat and questions about the site!  Reaching out is the hardest part, but you've already taken the first step! If we talk, please leave me a review! I strive to better myself as I go through my journey as a 7Cups listener! 💮 -Please be patient and kind to your listener. We are not professionals and need you to meet us halfway.- -7Cups is not a crisis resource. If you find yourself in crisis, please contact crisis lines available in your country- "You will succeed in whatever you choose to do, and light will shine on the road ahead of you." •─────────•°•ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ•°•─────────• I currently do not have the capacity to take on more long-term members, but I will happily take one-off chats!

hello! i'm rrretsuko ! at the moment, i'm working on freshening up my 7 cups account as i have been inactive for a while. please be patient with me as it will take me a while to adjust to being active on the site once more <3 i am a college student with a job, so i currently have a very busy schedule. for this reason, it will take me a while to get my listener account back on track. i have a passion for helping others and i am comfortable with providing support for most topics <3. though i cannot say i've had experience with every subject, i like to try my best with listening to others who need someone to talk to. i love poetry, music, ecology, and traveling :) my availability : green - i am online and accepting chats ! orange - i am online but either busy helping a member or in the support rooms. if you leave a message, i won't reply until i am done helping the member i am listening to at that moment or when i leave the support rooms ! red - i am offline and not responding to any messages at the moment. if you leave a message, i may take awhile to respond depending on how busy i am ! mondays - thursdays : i am typically quite busy on weekdays as i have college classes to attend and work. my availability throughout the day will vary, but i will likely be most active after 5 pm until 9 or 10 pm :) fridays - sundays : i don't have a set schedule for anything during these days, however, they are my designated days for relaxation, studying, and doing whatever else i need to get done. for this reason, availability throughout these days will vary my roles on cups ! : i am refraining from holding any roles as i feel i am not able to fulfill any other responsibilities <3 • verified listener : i have been verified by the community based on my commitment to active listening skills and quality chatting ! i passed a mock chat with a mentor in order to receive this badge :) previous roles: peer appreciation team member, listener check-in host, forum supporter, subcommunity leadership events team member, listener events team member, LDP mentor, project agent, listener verifier team member, teen discussion host, chatroom moderator, safety patrol member, peer supporter, and listener coach chats i do not take ! [please read] : • any flirty or sexual conversations • chats from members who are suicidal or actively self-harming and seeking crisis support as it is against 7 cups guidelines and a big trigger for me. please refer to a hotline here [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines] instead • roleplaying chats of any sort  • chats from members who treat me disrespectfully • topics on age regression as it can be triggering for me • chats that get too graphic/detailed when describing sexual events side notes ! [please read] : • i do not recommend relying on me for fast replies if you message me out of the blue for an unscheduled chat  • there are chances i may not get back to you in certain circumstances. this most likely means that i am busy and unable to give you support at the time. you can find another listener here [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/] in the meantime !

Hi! My name is Kyle. I was born in China, spend most of my years in China, and transfer to the US in 2019 as an 8th grader. The transition for me had been fairly hard, and I have overcome those difficulties. As a teenager, I feel like I can help more teenagers with similar problems in terms of school work, transition, and other teen problems.

🇬🇧 "If nothing saves us from death, at least love should save us from life" 🇪🇸 "Si nada nos salva de la muerte, al menos el amor debería salvarnos de la vida" 🇬🇧Below is my profile, first in English, then in Spanish.  🇪🇸Abajo está mi perfil, primero en inglés, luego en español(no es fluido).    🇬🇧 Hello 💛 My name is Lusio/Bhavya/Riva. I speak English and Spanish. Apart from being a listener, I also am a ⭐Quality mentor and ⭐Chat supporter What I will try and offer in our chats - 💛Empathy I practice and have unconditional empathy for all, because I believe we all deserve love and kindness irrespective of anything and in any condition. This belief strengthens my ability to be empathetic in more situations than not. Hence, please feel safe to bring any topics to me without any worries of being empathized with.  💛 Respect for boundaries Safe place where boundaries are respected  💛No harmful judgements Feelings and emotions can be freely expressed without unnecessary judgements regarding them.Judging is human nature but I believe in judging to understand than hurting.I believe it's important to offer a space where you would be understood over anything that's been said or done, than guilting and punishing. I believe we are more than what we do, and irrespective of what we do, we all deserve love. Core of that belief is essentially that we all are more than what we do, and irrespective of it all we deserve to be understood and loved in all conditions.I think the world lacks it unfortunately, making it more so valuable to offer it and believe in it being the right way of life . 💛 Active listening skills Complete use of active listening skills allowing me to help you feel safe, understood and attended to. 💛 Communication skills Focus on high standard of communication skills allowing me to make chats feel safe with increased clarity and kindness  💛 Graduate degree in psychology Having a graduate degree in applied psychology  allows me to introduce more knowledge and honed skills when coming to discussing most issues and offer high level of professionalism. 🇪🇸 Hola 💛  Mi nombre es Lusio/Bhavya/Riva.  Hablo Inglés Y Español(no es fluido). Además de ser un oyente, también soy ⭐un Mentor de calidad y  ⭐ Seguidor de chat.  Lo que intentaré ofrecer en nuestros chats:  💛Empatía Practico y tengo empatía incondicional por todos, porque creo que todos merecemos amor y bondad independientemente de cualquier cosa y en cualquier condición.  Esta creencia fortalece mi capacidad de ser empático en la mayoría de las situaciones.  Por lo tanto, siéntete seguro de traerme cualquier tema sin preocuparte de sentir empatía.   💛 Respeto a los límites  Lugar seguro donde se respetan los límites  💛Sin juicios perjudiciales  Los sentimientos y las emociones pueden expresarse libremente sin juicios innecesarios al respecto.Juzgar es la naturaleza humana pero yo creo en juzgar para entender que para lastimar.Creo que es importante ofrecer un espacio donde te entiendan por encima de todo lo que se ha dicho o hecho, en lugar de culpar y castigar.  Creo que somos más de lo que hacemos, e independientemente de lo que hagamos, todos merecemos amor.El núcleo de esa creencia es esencialmente que todos somos más de lo que hacemos y, independientemente de ello, todos merecemos ser comprendidos y amados en todas las condiciones.Creo que lamentablemente el mundo carece de él, por lo que es más valioso ofrecerlo y creer que es la forma correcta de vida.  💛 Habilidades de escucha activa Uso completo de las habilidades de escucha activa que me permiten ayudarte a sentirte seguro, comprendido y atendido.  💛 Habilidades de comunicación   Centrarse en un alto nivel de habilidades de comunicación que me permita hacer que los chats se sientan seguros con mayor claridad y amabilidad.  💛 Licenciatura en psicología  Tener un título de posgrado en psicología aplicada me permite introducir más conocimientos y habilidades perfeccionadas cuando se trata de discutir la mayoría de los temas y ofrecer un alto nivel de profesionalismo. 🇬🇧 I may tend to take time sometimes when responding, or might abandon the chat due to reasons of my own, hope that can be taken into account when messaging me. I try to stay but have some health needs 💛. I will drop 🦴 when I feel in need of taking time.  🇪🇸 Es posible que a veces tiendo a tomarme un tiempo al responder, o puedo abandonar el chat debido a mis propias razones, espero que eso se pueda tener en cuenta al enviarme un mensaje. Hago todo lo posible para quedar, pero tengo que irme debido a mis necesidades de salud.💛💛Dejaré caer 🦴 cuando necesite tomarme un tiempo

"These pains, you feel, are messengers. Listen to them." (Rumi) Hello, fellow human being. How are you? Not good? Worry not, you are not alone in this. You are a survivor and so brave to ask for help when you need it. As Rumi said, pain is a messenger. You must listen to that messenger. The message, it carries, has the key to the progress, you seek. So, lets talk about it? Shall we? Lets make you feel better now. Have a glass of water and talk. Bit about myself I have been active listener on 7cups for quite a while. I like being able to make a positive difference in people's life. When I am not on 7cups, I am probably busy in real life. I am 27 years old  I like to watch movies (huge fan of Marvel and DC), listen to songs (especially Coke Studio) and sleep (Yup, I can sleep anytime even typing it) P.S. I am not online always because of busy routine. If you are in need of immediate help, look out for other listeners by "Browse Listeners" You are welcome to drop a message, I'll try to reply in few days.

Currently not taking new requests/messages , taking a mental break. Life is so short, so delicate. Where will we be tomorrow when our day ends and we shut our eyes and try to move on from the hardships of our current day. Time always seem so fast when we look back though, and yet day by day we want the day to finish as quick as possible but it feels slow. Years and months feel quick, weeks and days feel slow. Feeling stuck in a pattern with no growth is just not worth it. We live all our lives and feel like we haven't scratched the surface of what there is out there. So tell me, would you like to request me? Maybe take that first step of finding out whats out there together with me? Maybe we can leave our mark on the world. Together, because friend. You are not alone.

Hi I'm Solome :) My interests: I'm an introvert who likes to be by myself a lot and pursue creative activities, but I am slowly coming out of my shell to try to be more social. I also like being out in nature.  My strengths as a Listener: Life is not easy, but I hope to provide a safe space where you feel heard and supported. I particularly like taking chats on loneliness. I get lonely too so I understand it, and in general I enjoy casually chatting or just listening to someone else. See below for the other categories I have direct lived experience in. I also have chronic illness so I can relate to that as well. My availability: I am located in North American Eastern Time Zone. I may not respond to messages right away but try to respond within 24 hours. Fun facts about me: On why I chose my username, I have a female ancestor whose first name was Solomé. I looked it up and it's derived from the Hebrew word shalom, meaning "peace." It can also be read as "solo me," which represents me well. I like to practice mindfulness and meditation.
