How I found 7CupsOfTea

Well I have always had a very dysfunctionalfamily. Abusive and normally absent father, heavily drug addicted elder brother and a trying mother. She moved away when I was still in school and I had to move with other family.

Through bad luck my brother has been living again in the same house with me and it was all too stressful one night after hours of his verbal abuse I broke down but I had no-one to talk to because it affects my relationship with my partner and my friends don't know what happens in my family life.

So I found 7cups of tea. Now I know how important it is to have someone to talk to, I have many good friends and an amazing fiancut I still don't want to/ can't confide certain things to them - sometimes its easier to talk to people on here about my worries and problems instead of nagging my family and friends.

I am a listener now! And I just want to be there for others too!
