8) Content Categories and Topics of Interest at 7 Cups

Thankyou @SoulfullyAButterfly , there are quite some topics I am interested in creating content, prominent ones would be Self esteem - affirmations, self care and managing emotions, student life , relationship stress and coping with breakup as I'd like to research more to expand my knowledge and will be able to deliver empathetic content . 😊

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou

Ooooh self-esteem team all the way here !

Yay buddy , *high fives* @kindLemonade

Phew! Still in the indecisive zone for now, but here are the options and the reasons:

Self-esteem. Considering self-esteem is a significant factor in a person's overall sense of well-being. Furthermore, I have been enjoying taking part in promoting healthy self-esteem in the community.

Relationship. In the community and out, relationship issues are quite a common issue. This topic offers a heap of opportunities for exploration.

CBT. Simply because I'm currently finishing my CBT Practitioner Certification.

@ouiCherie

Hey, Indecisiveness and self-esteem buddy here

I was actually thinking of choosing CBT but I wrote Coping skills because it's broader (I don't have to choose just CBT haha)

And hey, cheering on you for the CBT Practitioner Certification! Good luck and that's super awesome!

@kindLemonade always a kind lemonade 😁💜

@ouiCherie these are all awesome areas! especially the CBT or relationship areas can be something unique as we do not have many articles on these topics yet

@SoulfullyAButterfly yay! thank you 🤗💜

@SoulfullyAButterfly

This is actually a tough question for me as I hate to choose
If I really have to pick my top 3, I would say:

Anxiety, Coping Skills, and Self-Esteem

Great options there Lemo @kindLemonade
To put it together, an ultimate list of anxiety coping skills to keep self-esteem intact is kinda essential 😉 what do you think?

@ouiCherie
Great idea 💯

@kindLemonade

I was actually trying to find yours, hehehe. These topics are awesome! I feel like your contribution to these topics will help a lot of readers to gain hope and encouragement, seeing how your writing skills are. Awesomeeeeee!

@SoulfullyAButterfly

I am interested in the Self-Esteem category! I used to host a self-esteem discussion every week here on 7 Cups and I really enjoyed learning about the topic, and teaching others too. Self-esteem is also something I have a lot of experience with (especially learning how to overcome obstacles!) and I believe that it's connected to many other mental health issues.

I also am interested in the bipoc category. I'm taking a class on implicit bias right now, and I feel like I could use that knowledge in my writing.

@sophiasanae

oh wow, I didn't know there were self-esteem discussions weekly here. I would loveee to be in them!
BIPOC is also an important area for sure. Thank you for sharing your interests and for wanting to write about these topics. The writing can surely help others.

@SoulfullyAButterfly

I would like to work towards the fields I have experience in. A lot of readers usually read the content which relates to them on a deeper level. It should be emphathetic and yet informative at the same time. Also, I believe that a person will be able to relate to another person better if they both have gone through a similar issue, eradicating feelings of hopelessness and loneliness at the same time. I am really excited to explore each and every field!

@Star996


That's awesome to hear that you'd like to explore the whole field. Though, I'm curious to know which your top 3 subjects are, ooooh (I know you hate choosing )

"...a person will be able to relate to another person if they both have gone through a similar issue, eradicating feelings of hopelessness and loneliness at the same time." -> I can't agree more with this statement, Star. Perhaps, you can also personalize this statement in your own journey of narrowing down your choice of topics?

@kindLemonade


Hehehehe, I do hate choosing, but yeah, your suggestion is really helpful!

@alphav7
Loved how you selected areas you have personal experience in as well as areas that require more focus. I look forward to reading your articles in the future

@cuteeeezombieeee
Thanks a lot for reading my post and for the feedback :)
Hoping to delve into it soon :)

@alphav7

Mindfulness is also my area of interest too. We are also in the Mindfulness sub-community together ayeeee! I look forward to being working with you

@kindLemonade
That's great Lemo :) That's also one of my focus sub-communities for the BCP :)

The top three categories I would like to focus on are:
🟣Emotional abuse
🟣Depression
🟣Substance abuse

☑️I have personal experience in all three of these categories so I'd consider myself a good fit for putting out content on these topics. Besides, I have also spent time supporting others going through these issues.

@cuteeeezombieeee

Thank you for sharing your topics of interest. It's very brave and kind of you to use your own difficulties as a force to support others

I'm interested in the Addictions or Substance abuse category. The reason for my choice is that I was struggling with drug addiction myself. Also, few members of my family were dealing with addiction and some still are. At any rate, it caused permanent damage to some of them. A lot of my past friends were dealing with it, some still are. It leads to suicides, murders and other crime, as well as other mental issues, such as anxiety or schizophrenia. It can tear apart a person, so much that he doesn't recognize himself.
For that reason I think that this area will be best for me - people tend to listen more to those, who experienced issues that they're currently experiencing.

@Matej45678 hey there! you're very brave for talking about this! thank you for offering to help others as well. I'm sure your help in these categories will be greatly appreciated!

and in the end the love you take, is equal to the love you make. - Mel, 7Cups Ambassador

@Mel Thank you very much for your words.♥️

@Matej45678 you are brave writer sharing your personal experiences and recovery. Awesome and may inspire more people. rooting for you!

@SoulfullyAButterfly

To be really honest if i could choose more than one i would... but after reading again and again i choose to develop content for the Substance Abuse area...

The reason is because i have life experience with this topic and in my opinion i could help a lot with this area.

@KACOSMIC that's amazing! It is a very important category too

@KACOSMIC
It really is an important topic and I'm sure you'll help a lot of people through this.💜

@SoulfullyAButterfly

mention which area you are interested in developing content for and why.

I am interested in developing content for anxiety because I suffer from it as well. Therefore, I think I can really write relatable contents over this topic

My top three choices would be Child and Adolescent, Eating Disorders and PTSD. I feel most comfortable supporting the teen community and ED and PTSD are the topics I related to the most.

and in the end the love you take, is equal to the love you make. - Mel, 7Cups Ambassador

@Mel

Those are some great topics! I do hear you, Mel! I personally find it easier to write and support to the topics I relate to or even have direct lived experience in as well 💜

@SoulfullyAButterfly

I'm interested in producing content about anxiety because I've had major encounters with anxiety and I feel anxiety can present itself in so many forms and most of them aren't talked about enough.💜

@KiaraB26
I really like your response. Thank you for sharing!

@KiaraB26

That's true. Anxiety may present in many forms. Even in OCD anxiety plays a big part. And the one who experiences it is somewhat the expert as they are the one who knows it well. 💜

@SoulfullyAButterfly
I would like to write on anxiety or self-esteem. This is because I've struggled with both of these areas in my life, and I have definitely improved in them, and want to help others too.

@Brinaa101
Glad to hear you have improved and your insight on how to beat them may help others too 💜 all the best!

@Brinaa101

Anxiety and self esteem are great areas to focus on.
