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.

Please read before requesting me  Hi there! I'm a compassionate and understanding listener, but I'm also direct and I will not sugar coat your situation. I'm here to chat with you about what's on your mind and/or troubling you. I'm very easy to talk with, and nothing you tell me will shock me. I will listen without judgment and help you the best way that I can. However, I prefer not to take chats related to gender, religion, relationship or sexual related issues. If you are a listener, and want to chat personally, please contact me on your member account. I've been trolled quite a bit on here. Please don't be selfish and waste my time. There are members here who are reaching out for genuine help. I'm not here to stimulate your sexual interests... you will be blocked.  Rest assured that our chat will be a safe place to express yourself, as confidentiality is extremely important to me. Honesty is just as important. So, please be honest with me at all times. Lying to me will only decrease my passion for helping you.  I've been through plenty myself... You're not alone. Come say hello ;) Also, please keep in mind that I'm not a professional, and I do this voluntarily. Thank you! 💗

Note: My mental health has been low and I'm trying to slowly get back to my normal Cupsing. If I didn't reply to you yet, please know that I will as soon as I can. *Sending hugs and love* <3 ❤️ ¡Hola! ❤️ ❤️ Me llamo Daf. ❤️ ❤️ Soy una chica que ama estar acá para vos. ❤️ ❤️ No puedo solucionar tu vida, pero prometo apoyarte tanto como pueda. ❤️ Sobre mí: ❤️ He pasado por muchas cosas, por lo que comprendo y valido que te sientas como te sentís. ❤️ ❤️ Entre otras cosas, padezco síntomas de depresión, ansiedad y estrés. ❤️ ❤️ Sé y entiendo que no es fácil, y no voy a intentar convencerte de lo contrario. ❤️ ❤️ Básicamente, soy la rara de la clase. La introvertida, la que canta cuando nadie la escucha, la que devora libros, la mejor amiga de los/as gatos/as, y la amiga que siempre te respeta y está para apoyarte. Si me lo permitís, seré esa amiga. ❤️ ❤️ Mis conversaciones tienen un único objetivo: apoyarte tanto y como pueda. ❤️ ❤️ Entiendo que estás pasando un momento realmente difícil, con todo lo que eso trae. ❤️ Estados: ❤️ Cuando mi estado se representa con el color rojo, significa que no estoy, y no voy a responder inmediatamente. Sin embargo, ¡podés enviarme mensajes! Me encantará recibirlos, y contestaré cuando pueda hacerlo. ❤️ ❤️ Cuando mi estado se representa con el color naranja, significa que estoy, aunque hay posibilidades de que no responda inmediatamente. ❤️ ❤️ Cuando mi estado se representa con el color verde, significa que estoy de forma total: ¡escribime! Me encantará leerte y responderte. ❤️ ¡¡¡¡ATENCIÓN!!!! IMPORTANTE: ❤️ Estoy para vos ❤️ ❤️ Hi! ❤️ ❤️ My name is Daf. ❤️ ❤️ I'm a girl who loves to be here for you. ❤️ ❤️ I can't solve your life, but I promise to support you as much as I can. ❤️ About me: ❤️ I have been through many things, so I understand and validate that you feel the way you feel. ❤️ ❤️ Among other things, I have symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress. ❤️ ❤️ I know and understand that it is not easy, and I will not try to convince you otherwise. ❤️ ❤️ Basically, I'm the weirdest in class. The introvert, the one who sings when nobody listens to her, the one who devours books, the best friend of cats, and the friend who is respectful and always there to support you. If you allow me, I will be that friend. ❤️ ❤️ My conversations have only one objective: to support you in any way and as much as I can. ❤️ ❤️ I understand that you are having a really difficult time, with all that that brings. ❤️ Status: ❤️ When my status is represented with red, it means that I am not here, and I will not respond immediately. However, you can send me messages! I will love to receive them, and I will reply whenever I can. ❤️ ❤️ When my status is represented with orange, it means that I am here, although there are chances that I will not respond immediately. ❤️ ❤️ When my status is represented with green, it means that I am totally here: message me! I will love to read and respond to you. ❤️ ATTENTION!!!! IMPORTANT: ❤️ I am here for you ❤️

Please don’t nominate me, as I just got “Hosting Shero” Sunday, February 25, 2024. It’s an award I will always treasure, and in fact, I’m printing it out to place on the wall so I can look at it. The award is thanks to You! Thanks to everyone who nominated me!

You can leave me messages in between chats and I will check back with you.  All conversations are held in strictest confidence!  I reserve the right to not listen to rude or disrespecting members. I am a volunteer verified listener and I will end chats that veer into rudeness or disrespect.  When I get back from my break, if you still want a chat, then please send me a few options of times that work for you and let me know time zone so we can chat synchronously.  World Clock and Time Converter: https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ Alternatively, we can have asynchronous chats, where you leave a message and then when I get to your message, I will leave a message for you, and we can have a conversation that way. This is actually how I prefer to chat since my schedule is kind of wonky these days.  ♡ (^=˃ᆺ˂) 𓇢𓆸 My Fantastic Listener Twin: Mindful Journey22 My Awesome and Amazing Member Twin: Geminieyss4unz ✿ڿڰۣ— CRISIS: 7 cups Listeners do not have the training or back up to support you properly if you are in Crisis.

Take some time and decide if you need any of those pieces back. Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking down! God: No - you don't understand. You are breaking through. What you are feeling are just growing pains. You are shedding the things and the people in your life that are holding you back. You aren't falling apart. You are falling into place. Relax. Take some deep breaths and allow those things you don't need anymore to fall off of you. Quit holding onto the pieces that don't fit you anymore. Let them fall off. Let them go. Me: Once I start doing that, what will be left of me? God: Only the very best pieces of you. Me: I'm scared of changing. God: I keep telling you - You Aren't Changing!! You Are Becoming! Me: Becoming who? God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light and love and charity and hope and courage and joy and mercy and grace and compassion. I made you for more than the shallow pieces you have decided to adorn yourself with that you cling to with such greed and fear. Let those things fall off of you. I love you! Don't change! ... Become! Become! Become who I made you to be. I'm going to keep telling you this until you remember it. Me: There goes another piece. God: Yep. Let it be. Me: So ... I'm not broken?

The purpose there was for each individual voice to contribute to collective decisions for the benefit of the group. 𓇢𓆸I believe that in sharing our personal wisdom, support and validation, the group as a whole is enriched greatly and balance and equality are created and respected. 𓇢𓆸Each voice gets the chance to be heard, and in turn, each person develops their own voice. 𓇢𓆸By listening to each voice and incorporating each of our personal wisdom, we can integrate the insights and lived experience of others into our own mentality and coping mechanisms, and become better able to manage the stresses of modern society. 𓇢𓆸Trying a new approach, or seeing something from another perspective, sometimes gives the fresh air necessary to breathe on old thinking and rustle it up to give energy for movement and growth. 𓇢𓆸We also can learn new vocabulary to describe our emotions and become more emotionally literate. For some of us, learning the vocabulary of the heart is a big journey. 𓇢𓆸Much personal growth can be attained when up to 7 minutes of focused sharing time is applied consistently and regularly towards internal sorting, and when the same person who is sharing is also learning to support others. 𓇢𓆸The cohesion of the Sharing Circle group can lend a feeling of community strength that may not be possible individually. 𓇢𓆸This link is about the origin of Sharing Circles within the groups of Indigenous Peoples: https://ravenspeaks.ca/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Sharing_Circle_Instructions_SECONDARY.pdf 𓇢𓆸Here's an article about Sharing Circles and the possibility for restorative justice through them: https://passthefeather.ca/sharing-circles/?v=e4b09f3f8402 𓇢𓆸Finally, there are some strong theoretical principles from group therapy that are taught through groups like the Sharing Circle. Please read here for more information about the therapeutic forces at work within group therapy. https://pmhealthnp.com/stages-and-yaloms-therapeutic-forces/ 𓇢𓆸 More about Yalom's Group Factors: (1970) https://www.cpsp.pitt.edu/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/3-IXB2-Yalom-Group-Therapy-Methods.pdf ♡🌹  "When you wonder whether or not your life will ever be changed, if you will ever be changed into My image, remember this. Our Father is using in your life the same power that He used to raise Me from the dead. This Resurrection Power is what will allow the old you to die off and the new you to be reborn into my likeness. Trust Him to complete what He has begun." (Eph 1:19) ♡ (^=˃ᆺ˂) 𓇢𓆸 Advice for Strangers on: Life: The only thing predictable about Life, is that Life is Unpredictable. Grasp Life firmly, Ride the Waves, Hang on Tight for the Ride. Peace is worth working for with your Whole Life. We can all co-exist and share. Let’s do this. Prayer is under-rated in its Power to soothe, heal and calm the stresses of Everyday.  Love: Love Big. Love Always. The more Love you Deliver, you will receive Three-fold and more. The Universe is basically composed of Love actualized into a material form. Love Little. Love with small gestures of kindness. Wipe the dishes. Take care of the trash. Wash someone’s feet, with their permission of course. Give your loved one a back rub. Do something nice without expecting them to notice. God notices. Finance: Be frugal. Live simply within your means. Laugh often. Share. Don’t let money or the lack thereof stand in between you and your Splendid Dreams. Money is simply a construct and a tool. Money will come your way once you open the flow within yourself to receive the abundance that is waiting for you. Help People.  Education: Attain the very highest degree you can. Strive! A degree is something no one can ever take away from you. Your knowledge and skills are woven into your very essence. You will learn how to think without being attached to your thoughts. Rich discussions ensue. Life is more fun. The whole of the World awaits you. From Calm Rosebud for Benitta’s book. 𓇢𓆸 “Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance, which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do, or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now.”  William Hutchinson Murray ♡ (^=˃ᆺ˂) 𓇢𓆸  “Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones. "But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed. Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food. You are meat for prowling beasts. No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal. "A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said. "We are at our best when we serve others.”  ✿ڿڰۣ—🌹 Mother Teresa's Anyway Poem People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered; Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; Be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies; Succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; Be honest and frank anyway. What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight; Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; Give the world the best you've got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God; It was never between you and them anyway. [Reportedly inscribed on the wall of Mother Teresa's children's home in Calcutta, and attributed to her. However, an article in the New York Times [http://www.nytimes.com/2002/03/08/arts/08MAXI.html] has since reported (March 8, 2002) that the original version of this poem was written by Kent M. Keith [http://www.paradoxicalcommandments.com/index.html].] ✿ڿڰۣ—  ♡ Love and (^=˃ᆺ˂) Courage, 𓇢𓆸  Rose 🌹 ♡ (^=˃ᆺ˂) 𓇢𓆸

I thank you both for your time and endless amount of support, the guidance and courage from both of them is how I became the listener I am today. Little note: If you expect a Listener with good spelling I may not be the listener for you  Talking to a random person is scary! Here are some things about me so it feels a little less scary. I am a 16 year old high school student, a sophomore. I go to college during the summer months. I have had many different battles myself, so please never fear that I will judge you for what you are going through, life can be mean, and things all affect us differently.

“Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone's soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd.” ― Rumi *** I am not suitable for long-term care. If you need a Listener that is long term, please locate someone else on 7 Cups that can provide that service. I'm excellent for short-term, single chat sessions as my work schedule (the one I'm paid for) is unpredictable. Please Note: I *ONLY* handle relationship issues, marriage/boyfriend/girlfriend, including but not limited to alternative relationships (poly, sharing, etc.) and sexual issues of any type - men or women. I am VERY strict about it. If you have OTHER serious conditions for which you are also seeking support - I am not the Listener for you. My background includes extensive experience with handling situations of infidelity, relationship problems, sexual problems, and various open or closed relationships.All other issues - please find yourself another Listener. I do NOT accept Listener Chats. If you'd like to talk with me, must be a member account, no exceptions. I am also not the type of Listener to tell you what you only want to hear. There are plenty of other Listeners who do that. I'm more factual, to the point, sometimes blunt, but always reasonable and fair without ANY judgment whatsoever. Selecting me as your Listener is YOUR choice, not required to do so; no one forces you. There are MANY talented Listeners on 7 Cups to choose from, so if you are very sensitive and prefer someone to tell you pretty things without any substance or depth - please find another Listener to support you and your needs. Not that it matters, but I maintain an MA in Marriage and Family Therapy from a regionally accredited university - Summa Cum Laude (3.973 GPA), and I'm currently working on my Doctorate, which will be completed in Jan 2025.

Hello I am glad to be a 7 cups listener. I am interested in nature, animals, books. And have expertise in learning disabilities and creative writing as a healing tool. And if you just want to talk about yourself and the world, I would be glad to join a conversation. I believe that - It takes the same amount of energy to think a positive thought as it takes to think a negative thought. Choose the Positive,
