How did you find Cups?

One day I received a message from someone on a social media platform where I used to write.
They believed that I would be a good source of support and encouragement here.
They encouraged me to join and I visited the site.
Until then, I had no clue there was something like a mental health community.
The vision got me hooked and I joined as a listener.
I observed people around me and had my own experiences where it was
tough to open up and share what I was going through and
 I wanted to ensure that we went through, no one else goes through that.
I noticed on 7 Cups, everyone shares the same spirit and energy to ensure
 everyone feels heard, seen, and comforted.
And that’s how I joined and the rest is the journey of learning and progressing with everyone. 
💎💬💎



What do you do on Cups?

I work with our community to make Group Support Chats the safest space for group sharing,
learning, healing, and a growing place together.
I work with our teens to make Teen town a comforting and encouraging home on the Internet.
Also, work with our Verifier Team to help and guide the listeners to become Verified Listeners.
Other than that, a bit of everything and working with the community in group chats,
forums, and 1-1s to ensure we are all aligned in our efforts to
offer support and grow & heal together..  

💯🙏💯


How do you like to start your day?
With coffee and a quick reading before taking a walk. 
☕📖


What is your most favorite weekend activity?

Connecting with nature and a long walk.
Other activities that I enjoy:
Reading, writing and also some extra hours of sleep if I can.

⛰️😴⛰️

How important is self-care to you?

It is pivotal. I learned it the hard way and I know I am not there yet.
But I am taking my small steps every day.
Self-care is like recharging your batteries,
 and refueling your tank to ensure you enjoy your journey. 
👑🤗👑


What motivates you?

Getting things done.  

👏🗒️👏

If you could be an animal, what would you be and why?

Oh that’s easy. A baby elephant. :D They are quick learners.
 A baby elephant can stand within 20 minutes of birth and walk within just an hour.
And, they are adorable.

Team Coffee or Team Tea?

On any day team coffee. And I appreciate the sentiments of tea. 

☕🍵

Small steps.

👣🚶👣

If you could do one good thing today, what would it be?
Listen to support someone.  
💟👂💟

What act of kindness, that you have either seen or done, is one that has stayed with you?

I have some people online/offline who believed in me during different phases or days of life.
And it is huge.
I believe having an unwavering belief and faith in one helps them find the path even
 if in the given moment they feel clueless and clouded with thoughts of doubt. 

🌞😶‍🌫️🌞

If you could add one thing to Cups, what would it be?

More lively group chats so all able to experience the power of group sharing and healing.

Can’t say on a daily but on weekly basis, dusting, It is tiring. 

😒🧽😒

If you could share some kind words with the community, what would those be?
I know how it feels to be alone and clueless.
But, you are not alone here.
If you are reading this or here in the community,
you took your first small step to get through whatever you are experiencing.
You are not alone anymore.
You have the support of the community and we are all here to listen to you,
support you, and grow with you. 

💙🌞💙

So next time when you feel doubtful, worried, misunderstood,
or any other emotions or experiences, know that you have us.
Thank you for being courageous and in known and unknown ways,
empowering & encouraging many including me.
