Need to talk to someone?

I am an middle aged female veteran with a lot of experience with parenting, mental health issues, work and relationship stress, veteran and and LGBTQ issues. I am happy to just shoot the breeze if you just want a casual chat, however, I am also willing to support members longer term and to work with members to develop goals and support progress towards those goals. I am also a completely safe person for LGBTQIA folks. 

''Every saint has a PAST and every sinner has a FUTURE If you are feeling broken, know that I have been there before and it is harder being there alone. I am here for you. I have tried and failed more than once but I have also tried and succeeded more than once. There are those problems that we cannot share with our loved ones. This is because of the fear that they may judge you 😏 or worse laugh at you 😂. You can always be free with me. I am a  listener who does not judge.👂 I have faced a number of hardships and sharing them has given me the ENERGY to overcome them. You can tell me anything. I believe that a problem shared is a problem half solved. ------------------------- * I DON'T YET HAVE A RELIABLE SCHEDULE BUT I WILL POST ONE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE  * I DO 1 HOUR ACTIVE-LISTENING CHATS UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE. * IF I'M NOT ONLINE, FEEL FREE TO: https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ ------------------------- ''No matter the pain we endure, it must come a time when we must pick ourselves up and continue with our journey. SO YOU CAN GO ON BEING LONELY AND  MISSING WHAT YOU HAD, OR YOU CAN MOVE ON TO SOMETHING NEW  AND  WONDERFUL WHAT'S NEW AND EXCITING? 1. HAPPINESS  “You can't wait until life isn't hard anymore, before you decide to be happy.” -Nightbirde- 2. POSITIVITY "Pessimistic people live miserable lives." TROLLS (2016) Branch: You don't know anything, Poppy. And I can't wait to see the look on your face when you realize the world isn't all cupcakes and rainbows. 'Cause it isn't. Bad things happen, and there's nothing you can do about it. Poppy: Hey, I know it's NOT all cupcakes and rainbows but I'd rather go through life thinking that it MOSTLY is instead of being like YOU. You don't sing, you don't dance... So gray all the time. 3. LOVE “A life lived in love will never be dull." FROZEN (2013) "Only an act of Love can thaw a Frozen heart." 4. COUNTING YOUR BLESSINGS  "When everything is going all wrong, it is probably wise to count your blessings. Make lists of all the things that you should be happy about. Think of all those good things. Focus on them." INSIDE OUT (2015) Joy: Look, I get it. You guys have concerns. But we've been through worse! Tell you what: let's make a list of all the things Riley should be HAPPY about! Anger: Fine. Let's see... this house stinks, our room stinks... Disgust: Pizza is weird here... Sadness: Our friends are back home... Fear: And all of our stuff is in the missing van! Joy: Oh c'mon, it could be worse... Disgust: Yeah, Joy. We could be lying on the dirty floor. In a bag. Joy: Okay, I admit it, we had a rough start. But think of all the good things... It's important that everyone knows, (you are) so much more than all the bad things that (have) happened to (you). -NIGHTBIRDE-

Sometimes we don't need advise we just need somebody to listen The most basic of all human needs is the need to understand and be understood. The best way to understand people is to listen to them." - Ralph G. Nichols غالب خستہ کے بغیر کونسے کام بند ہیں روئیے زار زار کیا کیجئے ہائے ہائے کیوں

Hi,  I'm Esther, a simple girl that wants to fulfill purpose by offering comfort to people who are going through mental health challenges. I'm so passionate about it because i have been there. I don't know how to share my problems to people and there are people like me out there and a good friend of mine helped me during the most difficult time of my life that would have led to a serious mental health issue. I am fine now and i want to offer help to another person. You can talk to me as your own buddy and i will give you the full attention that you need. Trust me, you will be fine..... You're not alone

Hello wonderful random person  A 26-year-old quirky engineer here, with a big heart,  that wants to make the world a better place.  With my sarcastic hint in my communication and  my overload of questions I am hear to listen to you and  hopefully make your day a bit better  I strongly believe that everyone has their own wonderful  story. A story where you can follow your heart, pursuit your passions,  fail multiple times and learn something new about yourself every day.  "Be yourself because everyone else is already taken"  ~ Oscar Wilde  Experience as active listener: Roles - verified active listener, listener sharing cirlce host, quality listening program graduate  Availability - CEST time zone - usually online between 2 am - 4 pm ET  Topics - PTSD/Trauma, anxiety, managing emotions, eating disorders, family stress, general mental health, panic attacks & student life Not comfortable - sexual health   

/// Please send me personal request or personal message while I am away, I will get back to you as soon as I can. \\\ Hi there, I am NS and I am a verified listener on 7cups since 2020, if you are feeling low, if you are in pain and you want to rant out and need someone to hear you out, you can talk to me.  This is a safe place, I don't judge, I don't give advice, whatever happens between us stays between us, you can let yourself out, and I'll listen to you. I personally have gone through many issues alone when I didn't want to because I didn't have anyone, I try to be a person who I could have relied on when I went through my dark episodes in life, and I want to help you in the same way by being someone whom you can rely upon with your deepest and darkest problems. I know how it feels when life seems to be going in a downward spiral, but I can reassure you that while things may not seem fine, they will be better in long term. Its hard going through the hurdles of life alone, when faced with tough times, you don't have to go through it alone, you can rely on me, on us. Being a listener, don't hesitate to approach me if you want to talk about any topic you'd like. We can talk about anything you are going through to anything you are passionate about. Everyone is welcomed here, even listeners who might be going through something they wanna rant or discuss about but make sure to use your member account for that. I prioritize comfort, boundaries and listening above everything, if you do have any topics or any boundaries you feel uncomfortable discussing, let me know. I'll make sure not to cross any of them.  A note to myself and others who might be going through their own problems: You are a human, a flawed one. You make mistakes like everyone does, you aren't different from others. We all are different, all our problems are different but no matter how small they seem in your eyes, they are valid nonetheless. Happiness and Suffering and two sides of same coin called life. There will be times so tough you want to give up, and there will be times where you cannot contain your happiness. No matter how tough life seems right now, don't give up. You are valid. Your problems are valid. Your experiences are valid. Don't let people who say otherwise, influence you into thinking you are worthless, because most of the times, its self projection. Talk to me, ill listen. Don't let your negative self influence you into thinking everything's worthless and there's no point in talking about it, at a cosmos level, nothing really matters. But right now, in the moment, you are living, you are experiencing, so it does matter, at least right now. Its going to be alright, even if it doesn't in the moment feels so, let talk and open up and try to make things alright. pfp by wooma from shama- Shama - Utattemita/Miyashita Yuu - YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpuyx_Y_Hw0] PS- I like to give huge and tight hugs, ill give you too, as much as you want :p​
