Today I Become YOUR New Best Friend!
My AMAZING twin for life is MrsBrownEyes.

Hey there! My name is Phillip, I am a 7 Cups Of Tea Intern, and starting from this very moment I wish to become your new trusted friend who has both been through, seen first hand and dealt with issues ranging from: Alcohol/Drug Abuse, Eating Disorders, Family Stress, Panic Attacks as well as Self-Harm and who feels that with his years of experience in dealing with these sensitive topics is confident that he can assist you or at least lessen the burden of your issues.

My main areas of expertise and a keen constant focus for me are: Anxiety, Breakups, Bullying, Depression and Managing Emotions.

Helping people help themselves is what drove me to not only become a trained active listener, but to also excel in all fields thereof and constantly better myself to be the best listener I can be for each and every one of the unique souls calling out for support.

Availability: My internship hours are from 8AM-12PM UTC/GMT+2 Monday through Friday. Though I am online due to my work from 8AM-10PM UTC/GMT+2 and may be available for chats during that period of time. I am generally off weekends as it is the only time I actually get to wind down myself, however in certain situations/emergencies I may be available as needed. I have converted the above times to a couple of popular timezones for sake of ease, first set of times are my official internship hours and the second set of times are my optional hours that I may or may not be available on (though response priority is given to existing members/listeners after hours).

Australia (Perth)/China (Shanghai)/Singapore (Singapore):
14:00-18:00 / 14:00-04:00.

More about MrsBrownEyes:
As the alias hints, she has brown eyes! She also happens to be my very dear twin (which means we work together as a team to support each other in our endeavour to help others and share accountability for each other). I'm going to label the whole outcome of this to "fate" as nothing else but that wonderful wizard can ensure such two like-mind individuals can meet up, follow the exact same path AND handle a situation in the exact same way... It was twin at first sight for us! I am truly ecstatic! Jasmine. ❤ -04/07/15.

I am looking forward to being able to make a difference in your life! Until we chat, please just remember that you are an AMAZING person, that you were handpicked and placed to be on this world to overcome obstacles and fulfill goals which only you can, destined to do great things. It will be my honour to make your acquaintance, to guide you in the shadows and see you rise up as you assume your rightful place amongst humanity!

...See more It doesn't matter if you're dark brown, brown, light brown or pale, rich, poor, religious or not, male, female or androgynous, homosexual, heterosexual or somewhere within the LGBPTTQQIIAA+ spectrum as that is all binarism. That does not define who we are and what we are capable of. What we are, is human. Each and every one of us, and the actions we take CAN positively affect the lives of others. All it takes is for us to take that very first step, do something for someone else and we can start a chain reaction that could change this world. There is nothing that can stop us from being human but ourselves. We have the ability in and off ourselves to make a difference. Believe you can, because I know I can and I know you can too! You are ALL amazing individuals capable of extraordinary things! I leave with you a very powerful message: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PT-HBl2TVtI Some tags for a handful of people I can think of at the top of my head. If you weren't tagged it is only because I'm human, and the main thing is that you're here now; aren't you? You're just as special to me and I want you to share in this as well. This is for all of you, the entirety of the 7 Cups of Tea Community. You're loved and appreciated! @MrsBrownEyes @RocketsMom @Kash216 @Laura @KrinkTheMellowUnicorn @Cadence @ZaraSmiles @CoffeeTeaAndHonesty @MissZ @Ace13 @Somebody2012 @QuickJazz @kdog334 @lilystars @michelleashleyx @ItsLee @Dan117 @sharpwittedHuman1449 @Pickle68 @Zedda @mobbsy @Aventurina @Resisti @Chevy81 @Minionator @niamh333 I'm gonna stop for now before I get accused of bringing down server hardware due to all the tagging notifications, LOL!! But please just know that this goes out to all of you, and if anyone else wants to share in, spread the love, please do go right ahead!

...See more Hi there guys! Where possible, please refrain from posting until I've given the all clear, so we can keep the flow of the discussion. I will ask a moderator to remove this specific paragraph when I am done! For those of you who didn't get to attend the relationship discussion that myself and @ItsLee hosted on Wednesday on the topic of What Forms A Healthy Relationship I've decided to put together this forum post detailing and summarizing the events of that night so that it may possibly give further insight into relationships and getting to know more about yourself and the views of others which may in turn help you see things from a different perspective! Obviously there was a TON said that night, I actually had to review my long list of notes from the discussion over the past two days and try my best to highlight key points and answers to the questions posed so apologies to anyone I may have cut! I believe I've been fair in the selections and I've tried to gather views from both sides of an opinion, so there will be the "positive" and "negative" which is all subjective at the end of the day in any event. For the sake of the grammar spirit that lurks inside of me; I have taken the liberty of editing the messages simply for better clarification and fixing up any typoes. Nothing else was changed and the views remain that of the respective individuals. Now with that out of the way, on with the summary!! P.S: I've decided I will be doing this in parts, namely I will post responses to this thread for each question that was posed to our lovely attendants. Simply for fear of a HTTP timeout and thus I lose ALL the progress/mark-up etc. as you can't copy/paste the layouts in and out of this forum editor.

Absolutely wonderful!!!
youre amazing
The best listener so far :)
Talked to him for about 3 hours and I haven't felt better! Seriously worth talking to!
Absolutely lovely. He gave wonderful advice, he was very patient, and was willing to chat about other things besides mental health. I recommend him highly!
Philbear is one of a kind and genuine. I remember the first chat we had. It was hard and it was long. But Phil new how to speak to me, how to listen to what I was really saying when I couldn't. Phil was available most of the time when I chimed in. He encouraged me. And may e hurt when I hurt. Right now I still chat with Phil. I know he is not a therapist (yet) but I do know if he was I would hire him. I do hope 7cups recognizes his commitment and hard work he puts in.
Good listener and really helpful.
I wanted to thank him for helping me the other day, some of the things he told me really stuck and woke me up that Im not alone, that what is done is done, and made me feel really safe and empowered. He is a great lisener
