Welcome to 7 Cups! Introduce yourself here!!

@redCar5112 Hi Car! You can share the name you prefer people use here at 7 Cups and maybe share a little bit about what brought you to 7 Cups 😊 It's nice to meet you! 

@redCar5112

hi! when we say introduction we mean the name you choose to go by and what brought you to Cups!

@WannabecalmPrune1799 Hello and welcome!! We're glad you're here! If you want to speak to a Listener, they can definitely help you with some relationship stress you are going through. We can't give advice, but they are here to listen! You can join the general request queue or you can browse for a Listener here who takes Relationships as a topic! You can also find our Relationship Stress community here! I hope this helps! 😍

@Heather225 Hey I am Maslow, looking forward to helping!

@Maslow Hi Maslow! Thank you for being here and helping our members! We so appreciate everything you do! 🥳

@LittleBirdie30It is no problem!!

@Maslow

wonderful to have you! do let me know if you have any questions! we're here for you every step of the way

@Heather225 Thank you so much Heather support like this truly means a lot to me. I would ask if there is any work I could do that would be eligible for putting on a resume.

@Maslow There are a ton of wonderful roles that we have! But even just listening looks incredible on a resume! You can find a list of our leadership roles here: https://www.7cups.com/listener/training/leadership/ Let us know if there's any questions you have! 

@LittleBirdie30Thank you kindly

@Maslow You're welcome! 💛

Hi. I'm sarefawe. Looking for help in controlling my eating habits, I tend to overeat.

@orangeCircle9013 Hi Sarefawe! Welcome to 7 Cups! We are glad you're here! You can definitely find support by speaking with a Listener, which you can do by joining the general request queue or by browsing for a Listener here! We also have a community for Eating Disorders! You don't necessarily need to have an eating disorder, but it could be good to talk to other about what you are experiencing! We also have a Healthy Living community. I hope these help! 

@Heather225 I have abondonment issues, major depression and overall lack of will to live, most likely will end it soon, tried to talk with listeners to feel les alone and another listener just ghosted me all of the sudden. Is it meant to be that way or something? are they not allowed to reach back? why a listener said she will see me again in a couple of days then dissapiered? and then it happened again

@ZuziaUwU honestly i am surprised to say that the longer i am here the worse i feel, just had 4th listener ghost me, a place meant to help us understand our worth made me feel even more worthless

My Name is Okbass. I joined 7 cups 9 days ago. I must confess that, this is a very interesting and nerves calming community that heals and restore. I can see the passion, love and the willingness and readiness in helping a member out of a situation. Sincerely, this is a community to belong. I stick here. Please, how do I become a listener? That is my passion.

Thank you very much while I await your respond

@Okbass Hi Okbass and welcome to the community! I'm so glad to hear you are liking the concept of the site. You can learn more and sign up for a listener account by visiting this link (clickable in blue)

Hey I'm new here. My name is Abbey and I am turning 16 this year. I have struggled with mental health the past few years. I am diagnosed with ARFID and anxiety and am getting tested for other things. I hope to meet some new friends and to be able to talk to others about my highs and lows!

@fearlessabbey Hi Abbey, welcome to 7 Cups! Our teen community is super fun and supportive. Have you look at the teen specific forums or group chats?

@fearlessabbey

Hello Abbey, 

First of all happy early birthday to you! 16 is quite the milestone to reach.

Thanks for joining us at 7 cups, I hope you find those like-minded people here. There are so many loving communities that you can join to cultivate relationships. If you need a listening ear, don't hesitate to reach out to a listener as well.

May your stay here be a good one,

Cheering you on always :))

@Heather225 Hi! I'm new here. My name is Mar. I hope I can connect with others through this community. At this time in my life I am restarting in my 30's. There's a lot of change happening in my life. In the last two years my chronic pain and mental health have really disabled me. I even applied to SSI because I have been able to work. But my pain has shown some remission, it's spinal so I still have to be careful but I've also started to rebuild my resume and have started to look for a part time job. I'm an artist, my medium is analog collage, and I also like to write poetry. This year I was in behavioral hospital for a month in Feb - March. So, it feels like for the first time in my life I am starting with a clean canvas. I'm moving back in with my parents during this transition but I'm excited to go back to school and get my education - which is something I've struggled in the past to stick with because of my undiagnosed autism and adhd, but now with a late in life diagnosis I will have accommodations for my classes. Anyway, this is my introduction! I hope you have a restful day. 

@ARainbowedSea Hiya Mar! Welcome to 7 Cups 🩷 A fresh start is always so refreshing and I'm so glad that you're able to start working towards achieving your goals on your own time! I'm sorry you've been going through a hard time, but you've come to the right place if you're looking for community! Let us know if you need anything! :)

@funnyApple615 Hi Ahmed! So happy to have you here and I hope you're doing well! 🤗

Hi I'm Willow,

I've been dealing with feeling stuck and isolated, leading to feelings of depression.

I'm hoping I can find some comfort in conversation with others experiencing similar feelings. :)

@willow2845 Hi Willow! I'm sorry you're having these feeling of isolation and depression, but I'm glad you found us! We have a Depression Support Community in the forums and we also have a Depression Support Chatroom where people can chat together and support each other. I hope this helps! Let us know if you have any questions!

@Heather225 Following the instructions for new members then, I'm supposed to introduce myself "below".

Just waiting for the AI to tell me to sit funny and not fidget, and focus on my breathing while pretending not to be thinking about my shopping list or whatever until the exercise has finished. I shall see into my big toe and be one with god/the cosmos/not think of anything while thinking about it.

@TheHaz Let us know if you have any questions Haz! We are here for you! :)

Thanks so much for having this available

@QueerDragonsRule Thank you for being here Dragon!! 🐉
