Need to talk to someone?

More Filters

It can sometimes be difficult to find support from family members, friends, or like minded people. While you might have a best friend or a support system and network such as groups on social media, you might want to seek support without any social interaction.

Our listeners provide emotional support through active listening. Active listening helps process your emotional distress. The following page can be filtered to seek listeners who provide long-term help and support. You can also browse listeners according to your preferred language as well as for different topics amongst other filters.

7 Cups is a chat site/app that has different options to find a good listener. You can meet new people and text chat with other individuals going through tough times - you are not alone! Everyone goes through a hard time at some point in their lives and we are here for you. Whether you are facing relationship problems, panic attacks, struggling with substance abuse, loneliness, depression, anxiety, or any other mental health issue, our site/app is a safe space based on confidential, anonymous support.

A good idea is to consider what form of support you would like in the first place - we have plenty of options to explore and one of the best ways is to give them a try to find out what works for you. We understand that different people have different needs and preferences. All these support services are appropriate for different situations.

This page can help you seek a trained active listener to talk to through 1-on-1 conversations. These listeners come from different walks of life and all are ready to offer a compassionate listening ear to people who would like to talk to someone else. You can select their username to view their detailed profile page with their shared bio and other information such as whether they have lived experience of mental health conditions or topics, their reviews, as well as their training and other badges. While our listeners do not provide direct advice, their support can help you vent your feelings and concerns in a safe space and you can work together to figure out healthy coping tools.

Listener conversations can vary in duration according to your listener's and your personal availability. Some listeners have the option to schedule chats with them in advance. You can always browse for listeners and leave them a message so that they can get back to you with their availability.

There are several other ways you can find someone to talk to at 7 Cups. These include the group chats and subcommunities. We are glad you are taking the first step towards support!

Our group chat rooms are online chat rooms that serve as different support groups where you can send text messages 24/7. We are a global community with people from all over the world. Some chat rooms include the Sharing Circle room, which is a non-judgemental safe space based on the traditions of AA and similar support groups. This space can prove helpful if you need a group of people to talk to who can listen and get to know you over a long time. Sharing your feelings and experiences as well as listening to those of others can help feel supported. You can expand your support network and make online supportive friends and connections!

On the other hand, if you would like to interact with people and talk to someone over forums, we have dedicated subcommunities for over 45+ topics covering a wide range of mental illness support topics through various sub-forums. Our subcommunities provide support, awareness, events, as well as opportunities to participate in light-hearted icebreakers.

Apart from the above mentioned mental health services at 7 Cups, we have affordable therapy options allowing you to seek online therapy for mental health problems with an online therapist, licensed psychologist, and other mental health professionals. This support is affordable as compared to other online and offline services or other options like support through insurance companies. Therapists are also available to talk to throughout the week on working days.

While our community can help support you after you have lost someone else to suicide, 7 Cups is not to be used in the state of active/passive suicidal thoughts - for such cases, please visit helpful resources such as the Samaritans or National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. For a complete list of helpful resources, click here.

If you would like to gain further insight and helpful information about different mental health topics, you can visit our Community Questions and Answers pages, or read our Expert Mental Health News and Advice articles. Other main features you can explore include our self-help guides and growth paths based on treatment protocols available for free!

The bottom line is, you are never alone - 7 Cups is a community aiming to provide compassion on a global scale. There are various ways to talk to someone at 7 Cups. These include 1-on-1 conversations based on active listening and support through trained listeners, group chats with support discussions and Sharing Circles, and the subcommunity forums. Other features that you may find helpful include the growth paths, community questions and answers, as well as expert advice sections.

Hi!  I’m Conner, a verified 6+ year veteran listener here on 7Cups! Safe to say, I think you'll be in good hands! I have 29 years of life under my belt and after the unfortunate end of a 7 year relationship with a young lady with a lot of trauma in her past I’ve about seen it all. I also sadly know what it's like to be cheated on. To help you better, please try and read as much of this as you can :) Help me help you!    I'd say that relationship and breakup support is probably my best specialty, along with college life. Dating, Jesus, pregnancy (including loss), sexual assaults, college life, and breakups are all things I'm happy to talk with you about! Please keep those in mind when personally requesting me; anything outside of those specialties I can try and help with but you may find better results with a different listener. I'm sadly not a psychologist nor psychiatrist, and won't be able to help much with any severe mental health-related issues.  Per 7Cups rules “I am obligated to make a crisis referral for active suicidal thoughts and behaviors.”   Interpret that as you will. More than happy to chat about life and hopefully get you feeling better. I'd hate for a beautiful person like you to choose a permanent option to a temporary problem! We have great resources here to help with that kinda stuff.   I am religious, so if you'd like to talk about Jesus feel free to reach out; if not let me know too.  I’m active fairly often both on PC and mobile so feel free to reach out! If I'm online, feel free to chat. That means things are slow.  If I'm busy, that can mean one of 2 things: 1st: I am literally busy and likely multitasking between 7Cups and my daily life. 2nd: I hit my request cap-I'll usually take about 5 requests then flip from Online to Busy so I can give them the attention they need. Feel free to message me anyway and I'll see if I can fit you into my workload  Expect 5-10 minute delays in replies. I'm likely literally busy, or with other members. If I'm offline, I'm either asleep, or just offline in general.  ->BUT, fear not :) Send me a message and if I'm not too busy I'm more than happy to talk with you   Other important things to know: -This is NOT a fetish chat. We can talk about intimacy-related issues, but it can't and won't go any further. -7Cups system is the one that asks you for a review of me so soon; not me. I'm not being greedy! Reviews greatly help though and I appreciate the kind words  -"Hearting" my comments helps me know when I'm helping you; feel free to use the button  -I'm on Arizona Standard time.  -Good English and grammar preferred too please... it makes it much easier for me to help you :P -Feel free to check out my song of the day  I post a new one each day I'm online!    Oh and Go Cougs!

I will listen to you compassionately. I will try my best to support you as a friend. I don't know much about some specific topics or I don't have experience so please scroll down for looking at the topics which I mostly talk about.

Please don't send me personal request for sexual health issues, it's my humble request. Just keep remember that your problems are valid! It's okay to not be okay! You don't have to be happy all the time! Showing emotions is healthy and okay! You are amazing just the way you are❤ Life is not easy for anyone. Ups and downs always come in the life. But, with every up and down you learn lessons which makes you more stronger. We should try to enjoy the good times and to have the courage to go through the bad ones. It takes a lot of courage to push through hard times. But, never give up because good things are coming your way. Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations❤ And I understand some people are really alone in their life journey but I just want to tell you that you are strong enough to fight alone and the sun is alone too but it shines!

I'm a 54 year old male with life experience in the categories listed. I truly care about the people I talk to and absolutely want to help. If that is ok with you then great. If it's not, that's ok too and there are other great listeners available to help you.

Due to the nature of my offline work, I do not take 1 on 1 Chats anymore. To Listeners, I do not do random casual conversations. You can message me for 7cups related questions and mentoring. I reply to PMs as soon as I can.  I am a Listener Coach and Chat Support. To Members:  I have been honored to be a listener since June 2016.  Time boundaries and personal boundaries are important for me as I do not talk about myself or use this for support and I have limited time. I am able to support any topic outside of sext, active suicidal ideation, or homicidal ideas. If you feel like you're in crisis (Suicidal, homicidal, self-harming), please check out this helpful resource [https://www.7cups.com/crisis/].  I have limited availability therefore I am not around for 1-1 chats. I support users in group chats and the forums. If you need immediate support, I recommend you browse [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/] for a listener who is online. The only exception is chat referrals so If you have been specifically sent to me, feel free to PM me. By the way, my favorite color is Blue. What's yours?

Hi, I'm Faerie, & I'm glad you found me here on 7cups! I would like the opportunity to "hold your hand" through whatever subject you need help with, whether light or heavy. I will take the time to listen, without judgement. I'm a verified listener here, in the "35+" age group, & I have experience working with adolescents & adults, (including LGBTQIA+), professionally, & in volunteer positions. I have experience with a wide range of topics, including family issues, relationship issues, dv, rape, abuse, painful breakups, disabilities, homelessness, chronic pain, addictions & other speed-bumps/road-blocks that life throws us, often when least expected. I enjoy cooking, reading, painting (watercolors and sometimes acrylic), writing creatively, being independent, having picnics outside, music (of all different genres) & sci-fi, among many other things. Welcome! I look forward to meeting you!
