Need to talk to someone?

Hi, Tara here. I am your safe space. As an empathetic listener, I do not just hear your words—I truly get it. Having lived through the heavy clouds of depression, the exhausting trap of perfectionism, and the daily puzzles of executive dysfunction, I know exactly how loud the quiet struggles can be. There is no judgment here, no pressure to be flawless, and no unsolicited advice. Just a real human who understands the courage it takes to face the day. Whether you need to vent, untangle your thoughts, or just sit in comfort, I am here to listen.

❤️❤️❤️

Hi! 😊 I’m someone who believes that everyone deserves to feel heard, understood, and supported. I enjoy connecting with others, learning new things, and growing as a person. I know that life can be challenging sometimes, and I think having someone to talk to can make a big difference. I’m here to learn, share experiences, and create positive connections in a judgment-free space. I believe kindness, honesty, and understanding can go a long way!

***** 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.                  

Hello :) Talk to me about whatever you want! I'm a good listener and I'm here for you

Hi All, Welcome you all to 7 cups, I am hear to listen to you intently and patiently. Please feel free to connect with me and I am sure you would feel heard and calmed for sure!

I am an “older adult” woman, (don’t like the term “senior citizen!”), who knows how important it is to be truly heard and figuratively held when going through a tough time.  We are all in this boat of life together.  And, I have experienced a lot in my life.  I have done best when I had support from other people.  I listen totally non- judgmentally to family, friends, and strangers, because I believe the human connection is what helps us get through the trying times in life.  Whether the "little" problems or the larger traumas - and everything in between-  we cope best when we feel heard, understood, and hopeful about being able to weather life's challenges.  Compassion and Kindness are my watchwords.

hi i  like to listen to others and feel for them.

I listen. For that's what the world is in need of. And I offer nothing but compassion in return.

In case no one told you today: You're beautiful. You're loved. You're needed. You're stronger than you think. You are going to get through this. Don't give up.
