Hello everyone.
I'm new. My username was suggested for me by the app. I have no idea what it means. I was recently diagnosed with bipolar disorder and I am looking for all the helpful resources I can find. It is really nice to see a large community of people dealing with a challenge similar to mine, and living positive lives.

Hello everyone. My name is Rik and I'm trying to find better coping mechanisms for anxiety, as well as peer support for the struggles that go along with high anxiety. Thank you for reading and I hope to connect with new people from this experience.

@theriverissinging im alr confused about how to use this site 😭
Hello, I'm new to 7cups and I'm loving it here so far. I feel so welcome and warm and wanted. Really know I'm going to get support and I hope to be able to support others. Thank you
Hello folks!
How's it going? I joined on Tuesday and I'm glad to be here, thanks for having me. I've done my first chat and am going to sit down over the weekend and figure out what specific times I can commit to from now on - really looking forward to helping people.
One note: I've just raised a help ticket because I want to change my username but the process isn't working for me right now, so if I suddenly appear as someone else you know why!
Great to be part of your community. Let's do our bit to make the world a better place, one word at a time.
Laters! 🕊️🙂
Hi new here… Not sure how / what too post here but let’s give it a shot.. Got a good job, nice family.. But….. I’ve cheated. And I love the other one. And I love my spouse too. Now everyday I feel so down and depressed about it and everything. I just want to talk to someone who can listen or understand or whatever. I can’t talk to anyone on this as it’s delicate. It’s in my head constantly and I’m afraid it will explode at some point.

Welcome and i Like to get to know you more. Thanks for joining us. Enjoy and we just a click away.
Hello everyone,
I'm new here. I just suscribed. I need to talk to someone. I am not feeling good lately. And I am feeling lonely. I don't want to worry my family. My friends are busy with their lives.
I am already in therapy for childhood trauma. This mental state could be a result of the reprocessing of the trauma.
My first post here looks gloomy 😅 sorry for that
@Amyleen17
hello! it's completely alright, no one here has any sort of rigid expectations towards how your first or any post needs to look like. and i think this was a great introductory one regardless!
i'm glad you are in therapy, it certainly can bring up difficult things to process that may not have been compassionately attended to in the past, which affects your mood and actions overall. and it's also understandable to look here for support not wanting/being able to rely on your loved ones. you can explore the resources hyperlinked in the main post, browse for listeners, join group chatrooms or explore our forums. hope you find these helpful! let me know if there's anything we could offer support with or help clear for you further. glad you reached out. :)
@Amyleen17 Welcome to 7Cups! There are many helpful forums and also Group Chat rooms. A lot of resources too. I hope that you are blessed by the people here. :)
Thank you @SerenityLight. I am glad I found 7cups. It's a bless. I've had my first listening conversation and it went very well. Very grateful to the listener.
I'll explore more here :)
Thank you again and to everyone here
@theriverissinging Thank you, I was recommended this website but I likely cannot be helped. I’ve been struggling for a while and I don’t see a way to get out of my dull outlook on life. I’m not even sure I want to have a better outlook on life, if it’s not correct. I’d rather be right than have to lie to myself to be happy.
@theriverissinging. I'm here for my hug! 🌝
