Hi Everyone! I'm Angel and I'm new to 7cups. I used to have a listener account a few years ago but took a break to focus on university and my own mental health. I'm very happy to be back though and excited to get to know all of you! <3
hello
hello everyone! I am a listener and I joined to be a listening ear to anyone who needs a friend to talk to
Hi friends
first I apologize for my English
I live outside America since I was born
I went from a very difficult period of anxiety, depression, bipolar now it is better I have suffered a lot I cried nights and nights, yet I am strong. Over time, all will be fine.
Hello, I'm new here. I've heard of 7cups before and finally decided to check it out since right now regular therapy isn't an option for me. It seems interesting so far but a little overwhelming, but I think it might help.
Hey there! Just as a warning, I discuss personal experiences here so consider this a trigger warning of sensitive subjects:
I decided to join 7 Cups as a Listener so I could help those in need.
I was scrutinized and ditched by all my friends after being s**ually a**aulted and as a result, struggled with s**cidal ideation for a majority of my life- I can happily say, though, that I am now on the ladder half of my healing and I’ve decided to help those in need: people who are in a similar place to how I was and need someone to genuinely listen and care.
I’m incredibly blessed to be alive and be able to do this; very happy to be here and excited to learn and grow!
I joined 7 cups as I have struggled through a lot of hard times and never had anyone I felt I could reach out to. Sometimes people just need to be listened to and I want to be that person for someone.
Glad to see you are feeling good about 7 cups!
Hi everyone! I am new here, but really find this community helpful already.
@Catherine1984 thats awesome to hear! :)
Hi am new to 7 cups. I joined hoping to find support for the terrible anxiety that suffer from and that I am not alone in dealing with this issue.
@raspberryTurtle1328 Hi! Welcome to 7cups. Hope you find the environment supportive for your anxiety. We also have an anxiety support community, hopefully you can join. Sending love!
Hello everyone,
I’ve joined 7Cups to hopefully find people to talk to, get some sound advice, and make friends. I’ve been going through a lot of changes in my life for the past few months, and am currently very burned out and exhausted. At the same time I’m excited for what the next few months may bring. I recently moved up to a new state, got married to my best friend, and we’re expecting our first child in December. We also just moved into a new apartment. However this was a surprise pregnancy that I didn’t even know about until 19 weeks in due to having no symptoms I recognized. On top of that, family health problems and family drama have me feeling helpless lately, and we’re struggling to figure out how we can even stay in our new place with a new baby coming that we need childcare for.
I have been dealing with an anxiety disorder for the last few years, and with little money to spare I can barely afford any therapy at all. So I’m really hoping to find a listening ear here who won’t judge and understands a little of what it’s like to live with moderate to severe anxiety daily.
Thanks for reading! I hope I didn’t sound too negative here - just going through a lot.
@WiltingRose92 Hi I am sorry to hear that you are going through this and don't apologize as your feelings are very much valid! I hope you found a listener who gave you the support you needed :)
@WiltingRose92 Hi. Thank you for coming to 7cups to find help. We hope our resources are able to help in any way. Sending lots of love!
