Need to talk to someone?

🍎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 ❤️

🚫⚠️ Topics I don't prefer are: Sexual Topics, Depression, Abuse, Self Harm, Addiction, or PTSD.  I lack personal experience with Depression, Abuse, Self Harm, Addiction, OCD, ADHD, BPD and PTSD. * You can view the topics I accept in my profile's "Categories" section 🪷  For Family Stress, I'm an only child with no siblings.

I believe that every soul carries a unique journey, and sometimes, all we need is a compassionate presence to walk beside us for a while. Through deep, mindful listening, I offer a space where you can speak freely, be heard, and gently reconnect with your inner wisdom. Life brings both light and shadow—and in both, there is meaning. I'm here to hold space for you with empathy, presence, and respect for your path. Whether you're going through a tough time or just need someone to talk to, I'm here to offer a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be heard and supported  Personal request - Pls note I chat for a maximum of 60 minutes at a time to make sure my focus is solely on you .  Please be aware I will not offer you any advice on your situation or tell you what you should do. Instead I will listen to you with understanding and support you to open up about how you are feeling in a safe and supportive environment. Pls dont substitute this with therapy or counselling

(Updated, current month 2026) ❤️ *on a break* ❤️  ------------------------- Response Time/ PM-land access:  🌻 Members:  New Member Chats: I'm completely unavailable for new members. (Members I've never talked to before whether new or old on cups)  Regular/ Recurring/ Old Member Chats: People I've talked to/ supported over a committed time frame, I love to hear updates from you, and am happy to see your messages. But please know that I'm unavailable for LIVE chats and can only reply offline, when I'm able to. (Responses may be several days delayed) So whether you're a new member or someone I've talked to before, if you need Live/ Immediate/ Urgent/ Regular/ Long-term support chat, please reach out to another available listener in cups.  You deserve prompt support, which I cannot offer, for an unforeseeable time! ❤ 🌻 Listeners:  I'm available for Peer Support and Chat Support only when I've accepted your request either through Chat Support/ Peer Supporter request forms or in the LSR, so please before messaging me for any of it, ask me in the room, as otherwise I may not be available to respond timely! Mentees/ Coachees: I'm so proud of you for trying your best to improve as a listener, and happy to hear any updates from you!  I'm typically unavailable for Live chats, and offline responses may vary, feel free to drop your questions though, if not too urgent, and I'll respond as soon as possible! If you need a live chat, let me know a little in advance, mentioning the topic for the chat/ kind of support needed, your time/ availability in ET or cups-time and hopefully, we can schedule for a live chat sometime!  Not available for any personal chats/ PMs unless stated/ agreed to otherwise. (Due to a high influx of messages, I'm unable to prioritize replying to messages with just a "hey/hi/ greeting", thank you for greeting me, but please do share a bit about "what" you're reaching out for, whether as a listener or a member, as it helps me understand how to respond better and faster. You may not hear from me unless there’s some context mentioned.)   I'll be around, in the forums and chatrooms when I can though, feel welcome to tag me in your posts or replies, happy to see you! 🥰 (I know) Extremely slow response rate: I'm on a break from several activities/roles here, but have been catching up with PMs and tags as much as possible. Responses will be slow and delayed, your patience is appreciated. Send a follow-up, if I missed your important message or if you need an urgent reply. <3 Support shouldn't be delayed, so I highly recommend browsing for other listeners when you need some emotional support. Please remember you are awesome and not alone here. ❤ ------------------------- Hello, Amazing Human, Welcoming hugs and high fives and cookies for you! (Take what you need hehe) I am Sun, Thank you for finding me here, I understand life isn't always smooth sailing, we all have our ups and downs. I know I won't be able to solve all your problems, but problems shared are problems halved, right? Or even if not halved, I do feel sharing can help reduce the burden of overwhelming thoughts and feelings in your mind ~ your mind is not a notepad, it shouldn't be a place to "store" thoughts and feelings ~ share away, your mind deserves to feel lighter and better and so do *you* ...

Feel free to Talk/ Share/ Vent and I'll be more than happy to listen to you, provide you with a safe and comfortable space and help you feel better in any way I can. Please do keep in mind that I can't and won't advise you, I can help you guide through the roads, but the steering wheel will always be in your hand and the direction to choose will always be your decision solely since you know your journey and your destination, the best. Rest assured, you've got your passenger seat covered for any support and encouragement always!  I am a persun who believes in the power of sharing smiles, happiness, kindness, encouragement, hope and positivity And I would love to share these with you too if you allow me to (always at your pace and comfort of course).🌻 I am pretty respectful and polite to everyone and personally do not use any offensive language including any kind of passive-aggressive/ provoking remarks, so would certainly expect and appreciate the same from you.

Please refrain from sending any messages, if you're here for any reason other than seeking emotional support, thankyou. 💛If you are currently having crisis thoughts (active or passive, or actively harming yourself) *offers hugs*, I know how terrible it can be to be in this hopeless situation, please however respect our boundaries as a listener, our limits and that 7 cups is not a crisis platform, we do care and therefore ask you to reach out to relevant channels of support. You can find resources here:-  7cups.com/crisis, please do connect with a hotline. You may not believe it at the moment, but you are *not* unworthy of living, you are not taking space unnecessarily, you are not your current situation neither your current thoughts. Nobody exactly knows, but we gotta keep hanging on tightly, to see for ourselves when and how it gets better because it does, *someday* and you need to be here to experience it.  Brave it in this very moment, reach out for help. You owe it to *yourself*. 💛 Feel free to send a message if you see me online (green status) and I will get back to you as soon as I can, we can then schedule a time and day for a chat or agree upon offline messaging, whichever is more comfortable and suitable for us. 🤗 At Last, remember that you are not alone, your mental health is important, you are a brave person to seek support,  you are here and I am proud of you for that.  If you give me a chance I'll try my best to be there for you, to be there with you and remind you that even if the clouds appear to be very dark at any point in time,  the Sun Is Shining And So Are Youuuu. 🌻🌞🌻 You are one Amazing human, you are important, you matter and You are deserving of kindness, happiness, support, love and all things amazing in life!

Hi! I have to take some time away right now, flying south for the summer. Stay strong. You can do this! 🦋❤️🦋 Right now I am busy with my long-term members and I am not taking on any new ones. So if you have messaged me I urge you to seek another listener using the https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/  link. There you can search using the filter option. I will update here when things change.  ~~~*~~~  "I am glad you have found me here at 7 Cups! I am happy to listen to you on many topics. I have experience in lots of different areas - anxiety, depression, and mental illness, families, and relationships, love, school, college, or work-related problems, financial stress, healthy living, food, and special diets, I can also offer support for chronic pain, illness, and disabilities. I am part of both the adult and the teen listening team, (and yes I can still remember being a teen lol) and I also offer long-term support to those that I can and who are in need. If I am not online then you are welcome to leave me a message -  but please tell me what you want to talk about so we can get off to a flying start. I will get back to you when I am next able, but please bear in mind that I get a lot of messages and I will reply to the most urgent first so if you just say hi, do you really just want a hi back? If you are a teen turning 18 in the near future, or if you have already turned 18 and feel like some more support then you can apply for one of the Teen Transition Mentor Team, including me, to reach out and support you through the transition from the teen side to the 18+ adult side.  The form is here ~~~> https://bit.ly/7CupsTTM If you have any feedback or ideas for the Disability Support Community then please fill out this form ~~> https://forms.gle/EJN1SX74mo6swPwN6  At weekends my response will be slower as that is usually my time off from 7 Cups, and I may not respond to any PMs or new requests till Monday. I  hope you understand that. We all need time for ourselves to recharge our batteries and relax.  ONE STEP AT A TIME "We all have different-sized footsteps that we leave behind on our journey through life. Sometimes we can change the size of our footsteps, the imprint, the impact, the direction. Sometimes our footsteps land on rock and they do not show, or they land on sand and stay for a while, Other times they get washed away by massive oceans or powerful waves. But each and every footstep is important in so many ways. Ways that we may not even know about. Watch your step, think about your steps, plan your next step, and the rest will follow."  Listening ... one step at a time Quote of Acceptance When we don't accept an undesired event, it becomes Anger, When we accept it, it becomes tolerance. When we don't accept uncertainty, it becomes fear, When we accept it, it becomes an adventure,  When we don't accept other's bad behaviour toward us, it becomes hatred, When we accept it, it becomes forgiveness. When we don't accept other's success, it becomes jealousy When we accept it, it becomes an inspiration. Acceptance is the key to handling life well !! Butterflies are a symbol of hope that we can all change from a small brown grub into a beautiful amazing butterfly! One step at a time! "Those who never change their minds, never change anything!" (Winston S. Churchill) "Prepare for the worst, but hope for the best!"  (B. Disraeli) Pearls are a great symbol of the grace we create, for the oyster creates its greatest work of art from an irritant!
