—Hi,welcome to my profile!

—I'm Edna, a teen listener. I'm someone you can share your thoughts with in a confidential and non judgemental zone. You can use your own words and take your time,i'll stay here!

—I love making people feel better,and I hope I can make a positive impact for you :D

—I talk with only one person at a time. You deserve the best focus and attention,so i'll try to give it!

—I'm avaiable almost everyday. If you're thinking about it,don't hesitate to text me. I admire your courage and effort,reaching out can be really hard! 

—If it's okay with you,I'll check up on you regularly and we can set appointments together. We can set little goals too,and see your progress on them <3

🌸 ~ Here are some special sentences for you: 🌸

  1. You're not excluded,you're just exclusive 

  2. You're not weird,you're just limited edition

  3. Just because there are people who lose two legs,it doesn't mean that losing one is okay and doesn't need to be healed. Anything that hurts you matters and deserves to be taken care of!!

—Something else about me!

-Verifier 

-Quality Listening Program graduate with Honors

-Leadership Development Program Trainee 

-7Cups Internship Dropout (I have 2 weeks of experience...that's not half-bad XD)

—Please keep in consideration:

I'm uncomfortable taking casual chats (example: talking only about hobbies), or chats related to Parenting,Motherhood,Domestic Violence,Alcohol/Drug Abuse and Schizophrenia,as I don't feel sufficiently trained and experienced with these topics. But you can try 7 Cups' research filters by topic and find a listener who can support you through that here: https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/

Additionally, 7 Cups isn't a crisis line. We cannot help if you're dealing with suicidal thoughts,intentions or attempts of it,thoughts or acts of harming others or dangerous situations such as sexual assault,abuse or any form of violence,nor a medical emergency. But that doesn't mean your immense distress is meant to be left alone; You need the best attention and help. So,in case you're going through any of those, please check out https://www.7cups.com/crisis/ <3


—Thank you for reading,have a wonderful year filled with luck! You deserve it 🍀

...See more Hi! I was thinking about 7cups journeys,and how much just joining can change a lot for us (: —So...I have a question for you! What made you join 7cups,and how did it change you? ✨  Here's a bit of mine: 3 months ago,I joined to try volunteering online. But the listener training completely shifted how I see things!! It made me stop heavily judging others and it turned me in a much calmer,happier person. Plus,the people here made me see humanity in a much more positive way. Thank you so much for keeping this community so awesome!!😭💞  —Now it's your turn! I would love hearing your stories. Thanks for reading,have an awesome journey!! 🍀:D

Are you too hard on yourself? It hurts more than you think ):

...See more Did you know that 40% of young people globally struggle with perfectionism and are too harsh with themselves? :/ It is in fact common to think "I should stop being so lazy,i'm disgusting. I don't deserve joy or breaks until I make it. I'll start working insanely hard from now on,even when I feel sick!! I'll do insanely big things!!!" (setting impossible,"perfect" goals) Aren't breaks a loss of productive time? Breaks aren't a loss of important time that lowers your results. But they increase your performance,and knowing how to do a healthy,relaxing or happy break actually improves your work/study quality drastically :D If I punish myself will I give better results? Many people believe that punishments for failing lead you to completely avoid that ending (out of fear) and succeed,but it's actually the opposite. You'll be much more likely to fail,as the moment will turn out to be an exaggerately important exam for yourself,making you anxious of the extreme consequences (and anxiety reduces temporarily your problem-solving skills and performance during the key moment). Failure will feel unacceptable,even if it's human and it happens to everyone,even in small ways,sooner or later. It's a chance to learn and improve,not a crime (: Is it good to have very high expectations? Not only that,but it will be harder to start tasks related to it. With expectations too high,the work will seem too hard to start as well. And this causes a domino effect where you get burnt out,act more harsh (believing it gives you extra motivation),and your self-esteem gradually dies ("why can't I ever do anything well?!? I'm a failure...") ——— But It's not your fault; perfectionism and being mean to yourself can be caused by many factors that you cannot control. Such as teachers or parents who were very critical,and you internalized their words as a child. Changing is hard,especially when the circumstances around you add pressure and tell you otherwise. It requires a lot of strength. But you're enough just the way you are. I'm proud of you if you survived such mindset and was in that 40%,or if you always were kind to yourself,which likely made you achieve more things.  Questions to ask yourself to not be too self-critical or set unhealthy standards: 1. Do your plans feel okay and possible for you,even to start today? Do you think you'll feel okay and not overwhelmed from them? 2. Think about 3 things that matter to you (examples: dear people,hobbies,sports) and say how they will change permanently if you fail. Will you lose everything,or have dramatic irreversible changes in your life? 3. Will you gain anything good,even just experience or finding a crazy opportunity (example: helping other people understand how to survive that challenge and turning it into your strenght) from failing?

Have a wonderful day :D🍀 (and remember: you're enough just the way you are. I'm proud of you!!)
