Need to talk to someone?

 🌞 Introduction 🌞  Life is hard; we all know it. It's full of positive and negative moments, very few of which we have complete control over. You don't predict the future, the future predicts you. It's great to see that you're reaching out for support today. It may feel incredibly difficult to ask for guidance, be it for a current or a past situation - you are not alone in how you feel. Members: I'm unavailable for chats. Please go to the browse listeners page to find a listener. Listeners: I'm currently... available! Please feel free to send me a message. I offer mentoring on chatroom, quality, sub-community, and safety tracks! How I Listen: 🌞 I will ensure that you, as a person, are validated. How you feel is perfectly okay. 🌞 Please be aware that I will not be offering advice, as it could be very harmful to both you and your situation, and could cause offence. 🌞 You will suffer no judgement from me. 🌞 Our chat will be as supportive and comforting as possible. 🌞 Finally, I will make sure that you are heard. Your voice deserves to be listened to. -------------------------  🌻 My Involvements 🌻   🌻 Quality 🌻  o Verified Adult-Teen Listener: I completed an interview and a mock chat with a highly experienced listener to show that I'm suitable to chat with teens, and a listener of high quality.  🌻 o Listener Verifier Team: I verify listeners through the Verified Listener project!  🌻 o [Teen] Quality Mentoring: I mentor adult and teen listener quality!  🌻 o Quality Mentor Leading: I lead the Safety Team.

***Please note: I am not currently available for 1-on-1 support chats. With my roles as a community mentor leader, group support mentor, and chatroom moderator I will be focusing my efforts primarily on community teams, forums and group support activities.*** It's not a community without 'u'! About me: Others have described me as an empathetic individual who strives to be objective, motivational, and empowering. I do firmly believe that if you challenge yourself to look at a situation from a different angle you will see options you have overlooked, and that sometimes even unpalatable solutions need to be seen for what they are, possible solutions. I aim to offer a respectful and non-judgmental ear, keeping in mind that my personal values and beliefs are just that: Mine and need only apply to me/my life.  I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community, some of the labels I use, or have used, to describe(not define) myself include but are not limited to, lesbian, homoromantic asexual and demiromantic. While I am open to and accepting of all members of the LGBTQ+ community, I feel my personal experience makes me most suited to supporting those who relate to or don similar labels. Now entering my 40's I have had experiences with a variety of issues from early childhood to present. I have found this can enhance my natural ability to empathize while still offering alternate perspectives. I primarily provide support for and am most comfortable with topics I have indicated in my profile. There are certain topics that I do not take chats involving, namely drugs, alcohol, detailed discussion of sexual topics, or any which contravene the rules of 7 Cups. "No matter what we have come through, or how many perils we have safely passed, or how imperfect and jagged our life has been, we cannot in our heart of hearts imagine how it could have been different. As we look back on it, it slips in behind us in orderly disarray, and, with all its mistakes, acquires a sort of eternal fitness, and even, at times, a poetic glamour." – Randolph Silliman Bourne

***** Not taking any 1-1 chats right now please use https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ to find a Listener. ***** Will not take any chats with sex of any nature  I am sorry ***** ***** Current Roles *****  Adult and Teen Listener Forum and Room Supporter - for Mindfulness and 50+ Community Mentor - 50+ Needs reply Charoom Supporter - Listener support room 24/7 Mentor for new Listeners Peer supporter  I joined in December of 2017, to help those who have nowhere  to turn. I am here for new listeners also to mentor because beginning a role like a Listener can be scary and want to give back to them. to help guide them and supply the appropriate tolls ( forms, links ) to help them succeed in their role. I help also with any concerns a new listener may have. I have real fun making forum posts for topics that help in my groups Mindfulness and 50+. I think of topics and write a forum post either to educare us more or just to update on a topic of choice. I enjoy writing the post and hearing feedback from others on how a person feels about the topics . My experience on 7 cups makes me love the roles I have and new roles I may apply for. I have grown so much with 7 cups and use certain chat strategies in my friendships offline.                  

I think the best way to introduce myself will be using the words of one of my closest people-  *rap music starts playing* I’m Sid, One of the best kids, I ain't taking any new chats, But if we have talked before, we can still tip hats! I turned 18 not before much time, my friend doesn’t know how to make this rhyme - 😭 smh smh ain't she super cool guyssss 💛🧡❤️💚💙💜 I won't leave you my friend. I am here ❤️.

I am proud of you all for accepting yourself. that is a great achievement. *hugs if you need them*.

I won't ever judge you.

I'm Kelly, I've been a listener here on 7 cups for quite some time now and I'd like to think that I've learnt a lot about how to support people who need it. I, like most people have been through some really difficult life challenges but I believe that by listening to each other and talking about our problems we can comfort each other and make things a little easier.

بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate فَبِمَا رَحْمَةٍ مِّنَ اللَّهِ لِنتَ لَهُمْ ۖ وَلَوْ كُنتَ فَظًّا غَلِيظَ الْقَلب لَانفَضُّوا مِنْ حَوْلِكَ ۖ فَاعْفُ عَنْهُمْ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ وَشَاوِرْهُمْ فِي الْأَمْرِ ۖ فَإِذَا عَزَمْتَ فَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يُحِبُّ الْمُتَوَكِّلِين. صدق الله العظيم 🤍💚❤️🖤  Assalamualaikum !السلام عليكم Hello! Salut! ¡Hola! Здравствуйте! 你好! Sawubona! If you want to chat with me, ask questions or even want to clarify something don't hesitate to text. I am more than ready to answer questions and clear misconceptions 🤍  I have my own project on 7cups 📍HORIZONS SERIES 🌌🌄(https://www.7cups.com/forum/countries/General_2439/Horizonsseries_380020/). It is based on discussions. I invite you to check it. It is enriching and such a wonderful opportunity for reflection and enjoyment.  I am glad to help with school work, academic question....I can help you learn a new language or know about a specific topic. Personally I had suffered with my mental health. I had been through difficult losses, periods of deep isolation, betrayals.... However, those challenges only made me stronger and wiser. Thanks to Allah's mercy i had survived them. الحمد لله الكريم حمدا طيبا مباركا  Patience is the key. I am now persuaded. سورة النحل (126-128)، وَلَئِنْ صَبَرْتُمْ لَهُوَ خَيْرٌ لِلصَّابِرِينَ (126) وَاصْبِرْ وَمَا صَبْرُكَ إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ ۚ وَلَا تَحْزَنْ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا تَكُ فِي ضَيْقٍ مِمَّا يَمْكُرُونَ (127) إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ اتَّقَوْا وَالَّذِينَ هُمْ مُحْسِنُونَ (128)" Moreover, I would love to share my around the world passion with everyone; travelling, culture, history, science, literature,sports, discovering something new and enlarging my knowledge✨ It is my pleasure to listen and lend a hand!  I am doing my best to support as much as I can, as soon as i can.  You are welcome to message me if you have any questions or thoughts that you would love to share. However, due to my limited availability here please anticipate a delayed reply.  I may sometimes have issues with internet 🛜 and this bothers me also. * I DON'T TAKE CHATS ON LGBTQIA+🚫🚫🚫 * Do not approach me if you are islamophobic.  * Do not approach me with unclear/inappropriate intentions.  AReine 🌹✨
