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.

It's an amazing thing when you can connect with a total stranger and just talk about life. Seven cups is annonamous, so there is no stress.I've been helped may a time when I''m feeling down. And when I'm feeling good, I can return the favour and help someone else out. That's an amazing feeling!
I love this idea so much. I am about to try to bring some people. :)
Shared 7 cups with friends on social media!
Sharing this great site with family and friends!
A place for comfort and advice. This can and will make/change/impact the world.
This is the perfect place to find people who don't judge you, they accept you for who you are. They are willing to listen and give all the love they can. They are willing to go with you through whatever you're going through and it's hard to feel alone. I'm on this journey with all of you and if you need a friend, count me in ,I'll help you in whichever way I can and I promise to listen to everything❤️you're not alone.
7 cups is such a nice initiative the person who came up with this idea God bless him..this app has got many good listeners who are genuinly willing to help so glad i found this app and became a listener too it even helped me to explore more and adding up to my self growth there is so much pain and suffering around and if a listener can put smile on that face or make them feel better,being a listener myself that feeling is priceless.
