Anyone can be a Social Soldier! Find out more here!~ (OLD THREAD)

Cadence March 21st, 2015

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.

Hey guys!! I am not a very media savvy person.. But I have succeeded to introduce 7 cups to some really needy people and keep motivating them to engage, seek and provide help to the great cause that we share. :)

Hello all! I am new here. I love where purpose has driven me--- 7 cups! I cannot speak highly enough of Glen and those who touch the clouds with him. I admit, my hands, too, are in complete outreach towards the infinity of "no limits." Don't look guys, but we have a real shot of "changing the World, one human being at a time!"

I have sang praises of our amazingness to my Twitter followers, my Instagram friends and my Facebook crew. I am not typically a "salesman," however, this product, I will go to bat for until the very end!

Welcome! And I know I feel welcomed! Glen, dream on, Friend, "Dream on!" I will be standing, humbly and hungrily, by your side watching, waiting and unloading your dreams one at a time---I think I finally found the dreamweavers of mutual origination! I am in! I will be your Soldier!

Today I shared 7 cups with the members of a local anxiety support group I'm a member of on facebook, and also on a friends wall who has really been struggling along with lots of his friends. :) really hope it helps even one of them.
