Anyone can be a Social Soldier! Find out more here!~ (OLD THREAD)
Welcome to the official forum thread for the Social Soldiers! Im glad youre here; youre amazing, and Im glad youre part of the community.
Introduction
The Social Soldiers project was created with the intent on eliminating the stigma that comes along with mental illness on social media, guiding those who are depressed/having a hard time/need someone to talk to right here to 7CupsOfTea. As Laura explained in her lovely thread right here, we need to be here for people who may feel as though they have no other place to turn.
What are Social Soldiers?
Social Soldiers are people that use 7Cups-designated social media to guide people in the right direction, hopefully leading them to the site where they can talk to someone who truly cares. They use the handles Twitter, Reddit and/or Tumblr, and check the tags for depression, or self harm, or anything along those lines.
Who can be a Social Soldier?
Anyone! Thats the beauty of this project; literally anyone can get involved with it.
What isnt a Social Soldier?
Sharing your own personal social media with other members/listeners.
Someone that shares their personal social media in this thread.
Just to debunk a question that may be asked, you can totally share your referral link on your personal social media handles, however we do ask that you dont share your personal social media handle here. If you have a big following on Twitter, and youd rather use your personal account to spread the word, thats totally okay, just do not share with other members/listeners your personal account. If you have any questions on this, feel free to PM me.

A thing I like to do is suggest to my friends who are excellent listeners that they may want to check out 7 Cups and use their skills to help others!

How is everyone?
@beautifulDreamerx , Hey!! I'm doing great! How are you doing today?
@softLove22 im doing well thank you :)
@beautifulDreamerx At the moment I feel great. Listening makes me feel like I really matter.
I'm curious,if I made a twitter say 'Kate@7cups' and only posted things to help with depression and anxiety etc then is it allowed to share that as it wouldn't be my personal account with information of mine on?
@KateUSA
Hey there! We ask not to share it around here so you wouldn't have the other person's social media handles However, you can always follow other social soldier accounts and it's encouraged
Hello everyone! I hope you're having a great day. If you're not: you're beautiful, never stop smiling cause the world needs your shining :)
