I'm I actually joined around a year ago, but doing a new degree has been quite busy so I haven't engaged beyond doing the active listener training. I came here because I want to become better at listening to people. I know the theory from the training but clearly from my first experience with my very first listening experience on this site an hour ago, I still need practice! My goal is to dedicate an hour of my time each week now that I am not so busy!

I'm new here. I have 13 years struggling with BPD, depression, anxiety, self doubt and obsessive behavior. I really need to ease off all this burden I feel in my heart and soul.

I'm sorry to hear that you are going through all this. I hope that with your diagnosis, you have a great support system outside of here too. (:

Hello! Today is my very first day in the app. I’m a little lost but it’s been fun exploring to see what’s here and all that the community has created. I’m not really sure what I’m looking for. I’m tired and trying to get through the day feels hard most days but I’m also grateful for everything I have and for my family. I want to help myself but I can’t seem to find the resources that would make me feel like I’m on a path to getting better. When can I leap from trying and trying and trying to getting better? @Hope

Hello Everyone! My name is Justin. I just become a listener here about 3 weeks ago. I’m also on the internship program as well now which I am very excited about. I joined 7Cups for a couple of reasons. The first being that I am currently pursing my life goal of becoming a L.C.S.W. I am on my bachelors right now so I am using 7Cups as my internship with school. The Second (and also the seed to the first) is because I wish to help people that are struggling.

I am about to retire from the U.S. Marine Corps. I spent 20 years in it and have been through a lot. I have been through 4 combat deployments and experienced death, grief, addiction, PTSD, Depression and more. I didn’t know how to deal with these things up until a couple of yours ago when I was at rock bottom. After continuous self care, I have determined that I want to help those that are going through these same struggles. I want to help guide them through the dark spaces of their life. Where they feel as though they are all alone. But they’re not.

So I am using this platform to help hone my skills as a listener and really assist people in getting to the root of their conflict if they so choose too.


I am so excited to be here. I wish you all the very best!

Justin

Hi all. Please help. I've been on here for I think about a week (could be wrong). I noticed in my notifications that I have been tagged a few times but can't figure out where. I belong to about five groups and clinking on notifications doesn't do anything. I want to interact with the people who tag me. Could someone please message me and help?
