Need to talk to someone?

wtever it is we can sort it out together :) just dnt lose hope

I'm a single mom of adult kids. I'm a Teacher. I'm divorced. I have anxiety. I love sports

⌚ Availability  August 19th, 2026 & Onward: I'm prioritizing my own mental health and family obligations, so my availability will be inconsistent these days; however, I'm happy to say that I'm accepting new member chats for the time being and will also continue supporting current long term members. 🔓 Should I be available, expect us to talk for around an hour via live chats. Otherwise, expect a response from me within the same week and willingness to schedule a time that works for the both of us. We can also message intermittently through offline messaging. Your best bet to get a hold of me is reaching out on Sunday Afternoons (EST) or rather what I hope to make them - Service Sundays ✨ * Green circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I am available to welcome new member chats and to follow up anyone who I have already spoken with.  * Orange circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I'm occupied giving my undivided attention to someone in a member chat or am focusing on other tasks. I may not be able to have 1-on-1 chats at that time but am open to coordinating dates and times for future chats. * Red circles adjacent to my profile indicate that I am unavailable to take on new member chats but am open to coordinating dates and times for future chats.  Please refer to my "Categories" section for a list of topics I'm available to discuss with members as well as ones that I'm personally familiar with, marked with stars. If you decide to reach out, please detail in your initial messages the topic you'd like support with and how you'd like to be supported. ✅ ------------------------- 🔊 Listening Style Brad here! (he/him) 👋 If you're reading this, it's nice to e-meet you! My goal is to be a supportive pillar for you through formal conversations or through casual conversations. Formal conversations prioritize emotional support and active listening while casual conversations are more open ended. Regardless of what you need, you can count on me to keep our conversations confidential, judgment-free and positive.  Friendly Reminders  * Times might be tough, but together, we can prove that we're tougher 💪 * I hear you and I'm here for you 🫂 * This is a safe space and a familiar place 😌 * I'm not a mental health expert, but that doesn't stop me from being professional ⭐ ------------------------- 📘 Day in the Life  On 7 Cups, you can find me most active on Sundays supporting members in 1-on-1 chats as a listener and occasionally actively commenting in the group chats and on forum posts.    Outside of 7 Cups, you can find me failing to understand why I keep losing the majority of chess matches to my little brother, practicing self-care by working on jigsaw puzzles, and winding down for the day with a good book. 🙏 My biggest challenge with hobbies and interests is finding the time to engage with them all because they are JUST. SO. MANY! Wanting to get back into running, wanting to play the piano, listening to a wide variety of music and watching a suspenseful show are just a few of those many.   ------------------------- 📄 Personal Statement  My goal is to pay it forward: There's a positive cycle and relationship between listeners and members where both benefit from supportive conversations. Members rely on support from listeners to overcome challenges and listeners rely on members to develop a greater sense of self worth and make a difference. We all have a part to play in making the world a better place for ourselves as both individuals and as a community. By pledging to pay it forward and remembering how much I appreciate what I've gotten from 7 Cups, I hope to inspire others to pay it forward as well and to continue the positive cycle. To develop as a listener, I've undergone verification, graduated from the Quality Listening Program, completed the internship program on 7 Cups and will consult more training to continue learning and growing.  Listening to you,  This is Brad 😇 ------------------------- 📨 Resources for Members 7 Cups Welcome Pack: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1CL9Yu_6zixlapOjdrhCgKLy9JN5wY3HWdrGH7PIO2WI/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.p2ah3g8frtbm  7 Cups Basics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1M53Nm5-pbtxx2_jKfXYgYzo3NgXxjNfMwfzVSRC1rZg/edit?tab=t.0  Crisis Resources:  https://www.7cups.com/crisis/      https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026242213-Non-Crisis-Suicidal-Thoughts      Depression:  https://www.7cups.com/forum/depression/ResourcesforDepression_214/DepressionSupportResourcesMasterpost_251542/   On Narcissism & Manipulation:  https://abusewarrior.com/mental-health/manipulation-tactics/  -------------------------

I love to reach out and support people.. i do this because others helped me move on to a better life than I thought I deserved.  I care about people so much, it makes my day to make a person feel better.   Contact me for support, i'm here to make a difference in people's lives! 

Hello :) Talk to me about whatever you want! I'm a good listener and I'm here for you

I'm not currently accepting new member chats unless referred right now. Please search for a Listener here or connect with a live listener. I do not take relationship chats. Quality Ambassador Adult-Teen Listener Anonymous Evaluation Team Ambassador Doorkeeper Global Chatroom Moderator Global Forum Moderator Peer Support Quality Mentor Safety Patrol Team Member SPOT Team Member I'm glad that you have found this site, are are reaching out for support through difficult times. I am a trained active listener and am able to offer support most effectively for those who are going through addiction, anxiety, domestic violence, eating disorders, grief, and trauma. Some of the things that I enjoy the most are reading, taking walks through the park, hiking, yoga, and writing. I've overcome many obstacles in life and would like to help by listening to you. If I'm online, please don't hesitate to reach out. If I happen to be offline, you are always welcome to send me a message and we can set up a time to talk. I'm glad that you are here.

I am here to listen.  I can be your sounding board. Let’s have common courtesy and respect to have a successful chat.

***Please note: I am not currently available for 1-on-1 support chats. With my roles as a community mentor leader, group support mentor, and chatroom moderator I will be focusing my efforts primarily on community teams, forums and group support activities.*** It's not a community without 'u'! About me: Others have described me as an empathetic individual who strives to be objective, motivational, and empowering. I do firmly believe that if you challenge yourself to look at a situation from a different angle you will see options you have overlooked, and that sometimes even unpalatable solutions need to be seen for what they are, possible solutions. I aim to offer a respectful and non-judgmental ear, keeping in mind that my personal values and beliefs are just that: Mine and need only apply to me/my life.  I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community, some of the labels I use, or have used, to describe(not define) myself include but are not limited to, lesbian, homoromantic asexual and demiromantic. While I am open to and accepting of all members of the LGBTQ+ community, I feel my personal experience makes me most suited to supporting those who relate to or don similar labels. Now entering my 40's I have had experiences with a variety of issues from early childhood to present. I have found this can enhance my natural ability to empathize while still offering alternate perspectives. I primarily provide support for and am most comfortable with topics I have indicated in my profile. There are certain topics that I do not take chats involving, namely drugs, alcohol, detailed discussion of sexual topics, or any which contravene the rules of 7 Cups. "No matter what we have come through, or how many perils we have safely passed, or how imperfect and jagged our life has been, we cannot in our heart of hearts imagine how it could have been different. As we look back on it, it slips in behind us in orderly disarray, and, with all its mistakes, acquires a sort of eternal fitness, and even, at times, a poetic glamour." – Randolph Silliman Bourne

I am an MSW (Master's of Social Work) student and a passionate artist who believes deeply in the power of human connection. I am here to offer a safe, compassionate, and completely judgment-free space for you to share whatever is on your mind. Whether you need to vent, process a tough day, or just want to feel heard, I am here to listen and support you. I specialize in discussing topics like Addiction/Substance Abuse, ADHD, bipolar disorder, Anxiety, and depression. However, I welcome all conversations. I look forward to connecting with you.

*Casual conversations are welcome!* Hey everyone! I'm Krishanth. I'm back here after taking a much needed break. While I was on a break I realised something really important.. I believe life is not about making money, working hard and doing it all by yourself. My belief is something as this "You go out, you seek for people who need your help and you make their lives better." I'd like to become a sponge that absorbs all the negativity and become that person who can emit those beautiful vibes and positivity. When I realise that I have changed someone's life and because of me this person didn't give up, that is the day when I live, always! I'm positive, together we can see the world from a different perspective. I'd be more than happy to be a part of your journey and hold your back throughout. Please do not hesitate to send a message, if I'm offline kindly leave a message and I'll get back to you at the earliest.  Hey? I'm looking forward to talk to you, beautiful soul!  

Here to listen to your problems, no matter how big or small they are!

I am currently NOT taking new chats. If you're still interested, send me a message and I'll try to schedule a chat. If not, we can do offline chats. Hi! I'm MH, a psychology student.

I do my best to reply within 24-48 hours. ------------------------- Topics I may not be the best fit for:  ➤ Addiction, Alcohol/Drug Abuse, Autism Spectrum, Bipolar Disorder, Borderline, Schizophrenia  There are some topics I may not feel fully equipped to support. In these cases I might suggest connecting with a listener who has more experience in that area. ------------------------- If there is immediate risk of harm or crisis, I will encourage you to reach out to crisis resources or emergency support so you can get the help you deserve right away. If I feel I may not be the best fit for your situation, or if we’re not making progress, I may gently suggest connecting with another listener who might be a better match for your needs. Some topics may require more specialized support, and in those cases I may not be the best listener, but I will always try to help you find appropriate support. ------------------------- Status guide: 🟢  Available for listening.
