My role isn't to judge or criticize you; I'm just an ordinary person trying to help and listen to you while you vent or share what's on your mind. ✨ A quick note on my time & availability: I am not available every day; I only show up according to specific shadules when I am free. Please know that if I am away, it is never out of neglect or lack of care.My time and attention are shared between different things, so please be patient and stay calm while waiting for my reply. I promise I will get back to you as soon as I can! ⚠️ important Rules & Boundaries: Just to be clear,I am not a Therapist or permanent friend. I'm simply a quiet face passing by in your everyday life. No heavy expectations, no judgment, and no professional advice. Strictly in App-Only:Conversations happen exclusively right here. Exchanging personal social media accounts, handles, or phone numbers is strictly banned. No links Allowed: Sharing any type of links (websites, Social,Media,etc.) is completely prohibited in this chat Feel free to reach out whenever you're ready.

🍎Current update - My usual times are  7:30PM -9;30PM chats bst time for 30 min chats. Reach out to me to request one of these times and I'll see where I can fit you in. I’m experiencing tech issues at the moment and will get back to you ASAP! 29/09/2026 til 30/09/2026 - no appointments on these dates due to work commitments I'm also not free on weekends.  I do not take chats on: Polygamy, Sexual Issues, BDSM, sexual health These are past areas where Ive had experience:  - Community Mentor: Any of mentees welcome to reconnect! I’d love to know how you’re doing and others too! - Content Writer and Editor - Moderator, chatroom supporter for listeners  - LCI host - Forum Supporter - Assistance in running Positivity Corner Sessions Presently I am one of the hosts for Sharing Circle FEMALE LISTENER  There are awesome community sessions which are scheduled in various rooms. You can check them out here: 7 Cups Community Calendar Please read below about what I try to be as a listener: Although i am not a professional therapist I try to apply my knowledge of psychology, mental health on stuff (p.s. - Undergraduate Bachelors Degree in Psychology completed. YAY 🧡🤩). I aim to be unbiased yet compassionate. Not a fairy godmother. Also I will ask questions that will encourage you to reflect about yourself - for some this may involve looking at parts of themselves that aren’t processed. So if you feel that you aren’t ready to explore things that have hurt you then you may choose to not talk to me. Be clear about what you need is my policy (If you feel you might go over 30 mins it’s best to come in with bullet points about what you want to talk about - e.g if the topic is trauma).  If all the above sounds good let me know if you want a chat.   When the circle near my profile pic is green that means I’m available to talk to you now. If you leave me a message and I don't respond this can because im busy (orange circle) or because im offline (red circle).  *30 min duration chats * Bright7cups former amazing twinning buddy - thank you ❤️

🌿 Hey, you’re welcome here. 🤍 I believe everyone deserves a friend who stays—not because they need something from you, not because you have something to offer, and not because you always have a reason to be okay. Sometimes, all we need is someone to sit with us through the silence, listen to the things we can’t say out loud, or gently remind us that we’re not alone. 🤍 I believe that every human being deserves to be treated with kindness, dignity, and respect, regardless of their gender, age, background, or circumstances. Respect is not something we earn through status or similarity; it is something we owe one another simply because we are human. 🌸 Because in a world where we can connect with anyone in seconds, the most beautiful thing is to find someone who makes us feel genuinely seen, heard, understood, and valued. Sometimes, a simple conversation can become a safe place, a kind word can heal a silent hurt, and a genuine connection can remind someone of the beauty of being human. 🌍✨ You don’t have to come here with a perfect explanation. You don’t even need to know what you’re feeling. Bring your messy thoughts, your difficult days, your little victories, or simply yourself. Let’s create a space where we listen without judging, speak without hurting, disagree without disrespecting, and connect without expecting anything in return. Because every heart has a story, every person deserves respect, and every genuine connection has the power to make life a little warmer. 🌱 No reason needed. No judgment. No barriers of age or gender. Just kindness, mutual respect, and a human connection that truly matters. 🫶 I’m here to listen, one moment at a time. Sometimes, being there for another human being is the simplest way to remind them that they matter. 🤍🌿

Not taking new chats. ------------------------- Coming, going, the waterbirds don't leave a trace, don't follow a path. I'm Charlie and I'm trained, verified and experienced as an active listener for both adults and teens. I like to support people who are struggling with something. Also people who aren't struggling with anything. And people who aren't sure whether they're struggling with anything or not. Please do not message me hoping to start a chat. I am not taking new chats. The poem is said to be by Eihei Dōgen, a Japanese poet who wrote it around eight hundred years ago. I don't know why I like it. I just do. My photo is the moon shining on the sea. There's some darkness and some clouds there but the light of the moon shines on everything. I like this too. Thank you for reading my profile. I'm glad you are here! ------------------------- In an emergency or a crisis: If you are in an emergency or a crisis—for example, if you are at immediate risk of suicide or other serious harm—7 Cups is not the right place, because we cannot deal with emergencies or provide crisis counselling. Click here for information about getting help: Get emergency or crisis support [https://rarelycharlie.github.io/howto/crisis] Listener support: I'm happy to support other listeners with issues related to listening, although I don't have any official role. Please do not message me from a listener account to chat about personal issues. Use a member account for that. To understand why, see: Listener and Member Roles [https://www.7cups.com/forum/ListenersOnlyForums_38/GlensThoughts_143/ListenerandMemberRoles_210/1/] Schedule: I don't have a fixed schedule. I'm online some weekdays between about 4:30 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. US Eastern Time. In the UK this is 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. On other days and at weekends I'm often online too, but at times that are not predictable. If you message me or tag me in a forum I'm usually able to respond within a day or two.

🌸🫧 Hi there, I’m Lex 🫧🌸 Welcome — I’m so glad you found your way here 💖. Reaching out takes courage, and I want you to know you don’t have to go through things alone anymore. When you chat with me, you’ll step into a safe space that’s filled with gentleness, patience, and care. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ 🌼 Availability 🌼 ☀️ I’m usually around 9am–9pm (weekends included). ☁️ Sometimes notifications don’t come through, so if I don’t reply right away, don’t worry — I’ll get back to you as soon as I see your message. 🌙 I take personal requests/PMs only — so even if I look offline, you can still send me a note. 🌸 Chats are usually 30–45 minutes, but if you’d like to connect long-term, I’m more than happy to be a steady listener over time. 💌 Feedback means so much to me — if you feel supported, leaving a review helps me grow and connect with others. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ 🎧 My Listening Style 🎧 🌿 My style is soft, validating, and steady. I don’t rush you or push you to share more than you want. Instead, I’ll hold space for your feelings, sit with you through the heavy stuff, and remind you that you matter. 🌿 I believe in walking beside you — I won’t “fix” things for you, but I’ll help you notice your own strength and resilience. I’ll ask gentle, thoughtful questions to help you reflect, and I’ll always lead with empathy. 🌿 You’ll never be “too much” here. No matter how messy, foggy, or heavy things feel, I’ll be there to listen without judgment. 🌿 I also know that sometimes the best support is guiding you to someone else — if I think another listener could help more, I’ll be honest and kind about that. 🌿 At the heart of it all, I want you to leave each chat feeling a little lighter, a little safer, and a little more seen than before. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ 🌷 About Me 🌷 🌸 I’m 21 and currently in college, studying psychology, education, and human development. Helping others is something I feel deeply called to do, and 7 Cups is one of my favorite ways to offer support. 🌸 I’ve been listening on Cups since March, though I’ve been offering support for around 4 years now. 🌸 I’m bubbly and lighthearted (hence my name 🫧), but I also bring calmness and grounding energy to my chats. I can be a little shy at first, but I warm up quickly and love meaningful connections. 🌸 Outside of Cups, you’ll usually find me watching Grey’s Anatomy, The Resident, The Rookie, or Station 19,playing sports, or catching up on some much-needed rest 🌙. 🌸 The areas I take include: anxiety, depression, breakups, PTSD, eating disorders, self-esteem struggles, bullying, self-harm, and weight management. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ ✨ My Roles at 7 Cups ✨ Along with listening, I’m also active in the community in many ways: 🌼 Verified Listener & Peer Support 🌼 ATL & Chat Support 🌼 Listener Chatroom Supporter & Chatroom Mentor 🌼 Teen Chatroom Mentor & Community Mod  🌼 Community Leader & Listener Verifier These roles simply reflect how much I care about supporting both members and listeners here at 7 Cups. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ 🚫 Topics I Don’t Take 🚫 Just so you know upfront, here are the areas I’m not the best fit for: ❌ Sex, sexual health, or relationship-related topics ❌ Financial struggles ❌ Disabilities ❌ Chronic pain If you’d like to talk about these, I’ll gently point you toward another listener who may be more equipped to support you. ✧˖°⌖⊹₊ ⊹₊⌖°˖✧ 🌸 A Gentle Reminder 🌸 This is your space. You don’t have to have the “right words,” and you don’t need to apologize for your feelings. I’ll meet you right where you are — with empathy, patience, and care. Healing takes time, and you don’t have to walk through it alone. ₊˚ ‿︵‿︵‿︵୨୧ · · ♡ · · ୨୧‿︵‿︵‿︵ ˚₊ 💬 Quotes I hold close to my heart: 🌱 “Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed. It means it no longer controls you.” 🌙 “Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is just show up.” 🫧 “Even the tiniest bubbles can lift the heaviest waves.” Twin Listener: @compationaterainbow64  Some listeners that have truly impacted my 7cups journey, @ChillingRain @Sunisshiningandsoareyou @Jenna @AnnaSilverberg @SelfCareMatters @daydreammemories  With warmth and kindness always, — Bubbles 🫧🌼✨
