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.

(Updated, current month 2024) ❤️ *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 pr 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. Messages with only "hey/ hi/ greetings" are missed often.)  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've sadly not been getting notifications for all the tags lately, apologies if missed your tag. Feel free to send another tag or a personal message, if needed.  (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. ❤ Stay great and take good care, everyone.   Response time for all my current (regular) members/ listeners (and mentees) would vary as I am not logging in here regularly as earlier, I apologize if messages are delayed.  Send a follow-up, if needed. Thank you for understanding, YOU do come first and there's plenty of support available at all times, please do find an amazing currently active listener  HERE [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/], and I hope you receive the best support available! 💖 ------------------------- 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* ...

. . .  if you just say hi, do you really just want a hi back? Something to think about perhaps when approaching a listener for the first time. It is much more helpful for everyone to actually say something that can lead to a good listening experience. I am unable to take on new chats from members right now. Please understand and choose another listener instead. Don't forget to use the filter/search function to find a more suitable listener https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/  "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 soon then you can apply for one of the Teen Transitioning Team 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 [https://bit.ly/7CupsTTM] If you have any feedback or ideas for the Hobby Zone sub-community then please fill out this form ~~> https://bit.ly/7CupsHZform  At weekends my response will be slower as that is usually my time off from 7Cups, 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 behavior 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.

Please scroll down to the list that states the topics that I am comfortable taking before asking to chat with me, thank you. Status meanings: My status is typically on Red or Orange, I hardly ever have it on Green. So please feel free to send me a message no matter what colour my status is because I may be on the site! If I'm not on the site when you send me a message then I will get back to you in a minimum of 24 hours as I check 7 Cups at least once a day for messages!  My roles: Verified Listener - I have been verified for my active listening skills which means you can trust that I am a high quality listener!

Hi, I'm Jason! Every day there are millions of significant events in the world: deaths, births, marriages, divorces/breakups, abuse, buying a house, losing a house, trauma, fired from a job, got a new job, health issues, etc. But for the people involved the events may be new or rare, and it can sometimes be stressful, painful, overwhelming, etc trying to navigate it.  I want to do what I can to help you feel less alone and isolated, and help you understand that there's an empathetic and active listener who is in your corner. Reaching out isn't always easy, and I'm proud of you for taking this step!

Please feel free to message me any time, I promise I will get back to you as soon as I can.
