💙 What role has 7 Cups played in your well-being this year?

Even though college has played an important part in shaping my interactions and critical thinking, volunteering on 7 Cups has given me access to people who truly need help. By listening to them, I've been able to use my time in a meaningful way, offering patience and respect as I tend to others. What a wonderful way to end the year, knowing that 7 Cups has not only allowed me to use my skills but has also profoundly enhanced them. I still remember the first time I signed up and within a few minutes, I started taking chats without hesitation and was able to help and talk to as many people as I could. That first-time dedication, and the commitment I've had throughout, has been something fulfilling that I will be proud of forever. Thanks to 7 Cups! :)🎄💚

💙 What's one wish you have for 7 Cups in the new year?

One wish I have for 7 Cups in the New Year is to continue to grow and create a more supportive environment for listeners, especially after a tough day. It’s important that listeners receive the care and respect they deserve, as their well-being is just as vital as the members they support. By prioritizing listeners' needs, Beeps can ensure that they are empowered to continue providing meaningful support to members, fostering a stronger and more compassionate community for all. 💛

💙 What role has 7 Cups played in your well-being this year?

Since my meltdown over my life in late September-early October, 7 Cups has played an integral role in my life. In fact, I believe 7 Cups is the reason I've remained somewhat sane throughout these months. This wonderful community has been invaluable in the initial steps of me trying to pull myself out of this mess.

💙 What's one wish you have for 7 Cups in the new year?

I wish 7 Cups will continue to be the wonderfully welcoming community it has been for my first couple of months here. I also wish 7 Cups will grow so that we can welcome even more people to our amazing community.

for me came here only a few months ago. but 7cups has became a place that we can come and not have to hide that we DID. also not questioned and corrected  about  using we and not just I. we feel for the most part we accepted  here and supported. that is a lot better then other chat/forums  we used before.  many here have added a lot to our well being. this a safe place just to be who we are too.

💙 What's one wish you have for 7 Cups in the new year?

that the trauma  chatroom be kept  open 24/7. so that us who have trauma  issues can meet. support each other and get support from others who have had trauma in there lives. that or a chatroom added that a  trigger one so when people need it they can talk freely about things that would need a trigger warning. as we seen many times people who have said triggering things without giving trigger warning. so maybe that would help that from happening. so to give one chatroom for both like a trauma  trigger talk one. that one would not have to give a trigger warning when talking in the room.
