Hello
Hi
I am Farrah
and new here
If there is anybody here who is empathetic supportive understanding and patient
If be glad to know
@123479 Hey :) it's nice to meet you and welcome
There's alot of really nice supportive and understanding people here - it can just take alittle time to find people you click with
I'm not a listener but we can talk here if you're comfortable with it. I also understand if you're not and there's no pressure ok?
@mytwistedsoul
Hi! It's so nice of you offering to help another member but unfortunately members cannot provide/offer support to another member.
If your thinking of becoming a listener then please message a mentor/listener for the form.
@goldenLion1121 Hello :) I appreciate what you're saying but I have to disagree. Members are perfectly capable of offering and providing support and encouragement to one another in the forums. In fact, I believe that's the whole purpose of the forums.
@mytwistedsoulI
I totally understand and get what you're saying but no member is allowed to offer/receive support from another member.
It's the same with listeners; a listener is not allowed to offer support unless they have all the peer support badges.
I do think you would make a excellent listener tho! ❤️
@goldenLion1121 I'm sorry I don't mean to argue with you but the whole purpose of the site is to provide emotional support
members are actually allowed to support each other! There are no rules against it!
@mytwistedsoul ..ok let's talk
@carefulNest9894 Sure :) you should probably set up a thread of your own as this is @123479 thread. Feel free to tag me if you decide to do that
Hi
thanks so much
@123479 Hello :) How are you? I hope you're finding some nice people here. Have you been able to find a supportive listener yet?
@mytwistedsoul
Hi thanks so much for asking
I have one listener which is great but its good to have more I personally think
I am having a really bad time
I hope you are doing well
@123479 You're welcome :) Hey one listener is a definite win and I don't blame you for wanting to have a few others. That way hopefully there is someone available when ever you need to talk with someone. I hope you find another one soon
I'm sorry to hear that you're having a bad time right now. You're dealing with trauma. I mean no disrespect - but trauma is the gift that just keeps giving. It takes time to work through things and the bad days seem to outnumber the good. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. It not something anyone should have to go through
@mytwistedsoul
I understand what you mean but I don't and wont ever view trauma as a gift
I think the lessons can be great though
Yes its great to have found one listener
thanks for caring
@123479 You're right. I'm sorry I said that - I shouldn't have said that. It's a curse and a constant battle each day and night. It affects everything and it's like life ceases to exist. The person you were before is gone and you want nothing more than to be done with all of it. People tell you to let it go - to move on and move past it but you can't. I know this too well myself
@123479 Welcome to 7cups!!! Glad to have you here!!! 😊
@123479 Welcome to 7 Cups! I hope you will have an amazing experience here.
Hello
Hi Farrah!
Everyone here is looking for support, and a lot of people are willing to support others. I'm new here too, so don't worry! If you want to talk to someone with those characteristics, try out the listeners option. If you are looking for a group, communities are good too! If you don't want either, you can always talk to me or another person :).
@123479.
Hi very nice to meet you. You know I’m feeling down and I would definitely love to chat with you and help if you want or give me the opportunity to talk
mytwistedsoul
I hope this works as I am not able to reply to you properly here
Its ok we all view things differently
yes its hell in my opinion
yes people say many things and I am learning to dismiss it
Hi
I can listen to you
@123479
Hello, it's nice to meet you.
