@Starmedia
Please don't stop sharing circles. They are amazing and I know I can speak on behalf of multiple members about this.
@Mimi
Mimi did a wonderful job hosting and had very supportive comments. Did a really good job moderating and making sure everyone felt heard. She needs to lead more sessions!!
@CommunityModJennie
Very supportive to us as a System :)

Teen Sharing Circles Feedback
@anonymouslistener23
Thanks! I love sharing circles thanks for hosting Anon!
@Ashlyntheordinary and @KaylaDances
they were all so nice and helped me through a lot
@CommunityModRobin
A great idea that Robin has implemented in their sharing circles is they put a code like word in the rules to make sure you are actually reading the rules and I have actually seen more rule following! They also engage a lot and arent so robotic with the script which makes the script less boring and doesnt scare people away :p great host!
@CheeryMango Awe! Thank you for posting this! This makes all this work 100% worth it!

Adult Sharing Circle Feedback
@Itisbailey & @Austin904
As 'Bailey' mentioned near the tail end, this was a hard/difficult Sharing Circle Time/hour/session. I was sharing about how, when, etc that I lost my companion pet ... I am unsure how many people were in the room at that time, but I felt very cared for. Which I needed very very much! (I called my mom earlier today and pretty much ended up not telling her what I wanted to and hanging up the phone more concerned about her :( so to have this sort of response kindness empathy and hugs from L and m here at 7cups was I think much more needed than even *I* knew.) So, to @itisBailey and @austin904 , thank you for fostering the care of the room atmosphere. To all the rest who were there, thank you so much for your kindness, virtual hugs, and true empathy (not sympathy). I miss my Buddy so very much and it seemed you guys understood that. I am thankful you also did not poo-poo or down play it - Buddy was the best first dog for me ever and the fact that he was not human - any of those things, just thanks for understanding.
@CommunityModCharlie
i really am getting to love these sharing circles, as a way to catch up with others, and hear stories and feel heard. glad they are going on!
@Rhlvrma94
rhlvrma94 is just amazing <3
@shiningDay80
Shining led such a supportive and loving environment. Its my first time going through a sharing circle session and I was amazed with the warmth and encouragement and empathy of the circle. Shining made sure to make everyone, including myself, feel valid, valued and listened to. I thought I would struggle with sharing but they were nothing but kind and supportive. Such a positive experience to listen and to share with others. Major thanks to shining. I feel better and valid.
@CommunityModMae
Can someone send Mae some cake or something? They were amazing, handled things like a star on a quiet day, and were a total boss at handling all the rooms and mod stuff. Really pleasant surprise, I am usually not the biggest fan of these sharing circle sessions, but today was just 15/10
@CheeryMango
Hello Cheery. Thanks for sharing the feedback with us. I will soon be updating teen side feedback thread. And My hearty congratulations to all the hosts and thanks from bottom of my heart for all they do for us. Thanks a lot. Keep Progressing and Supporting

“Blue was able to handle a situation that was pretty intense. This is the second time for me on here where people talk graphically about suicide. Blue offered help and helped keep the flow going once confirming that the person was okay. Very professional!”
@NewPenguin
“I made some missteps, but the group was very gentle in corrections. It helped having some members who seemed familiar with protocols. Penguin did great, I saw one member get flustered at a misunderstanding, but they explained on the groups behalf”
“NewPenguin was great at allowing members time to share, moving the conversation along appropriately and supporting members who did share”
@CommunityModMae
“I was kind of down, post NY eve, but this session prepped me up. Thanks”
“It was my first session and I was anxious going in, and didn't know/understand the rules.
Notes:
* I found it helpful that the rules were readily available at all times
* We were given advice on how best to comment - and the moderator was very good to keep repeating this information regularly during the chat
* Moderator was very supportive and the comments they posted at the end of everyone's talk were so genuine and encouraging <-- this really is the reason why I felt compelled to write this feedback. please thank this person for me”
