Need to talk to someone?

Note: At this time I am unable to have any live conversations, if you message I can respond when I am available, but responses will not be immediate.     Please read my whole bio before messaging me.    Green: I am available and currently wanting to take chats!! Orange: I am online but I may be focusing my attention on other things. I might be able to respond to chats, though replies may not be immediate. Please book me for a time I will be available Red: I am offline or not able to take chats at the moment. Please book me for a time I will be available.  Heya everyone! I am Grah, an Adult-Teen listener, as well as a leader on 7Cups. Reaching out to a listener is a huge step towards being able to feel better. Just taking this step shows your strength and I am proud of you! A little about me! My name is Haley, and I am 18. I have bought my first house, and I have 2 playful kittens to keep me company. I identify within the LGBTQ community and support anyone else that is also part of the community. I love to work on my writing, whether it be through poetry or stories/books. I’ve only published a short story before, but my hope is to one day be able to publish a book (or multiple). I also play the violin, and I am slowly learning the guitar. I volunteer as a crisis counselor with the Crisis Text Line (Though I will NOT support those in crisis here on 7Cups) My past has given me a history with a variety of mental health challenges, including ADHD, Autism, Anxiety, Depression, Borderline Personality Disorder, and self-harm. I was able to take my experience, where I went from rock bottom, to where I am. I’m still fighting, but I am fighting now for those who need it to get away from rock bottom. Though I am focused to help others and to focus on everything I do, I'm still human. I do ask that anyone who messages me is willing to be respectful of any boundaries set, and willing to show respect.  About my listening style!~ As a listener, I am here to listen and support, but I am not here to give advice. When I begin a chat with a long term member, I like to start out by setting a plan. This plan is what keeps the chats structured to your individual needs. Everyone is different, so no two people will get the same benefits from any listener. The chats that I accept are those working on recovery in mental health. My goal as a support is to provide a safe place and a supportive ear, but I'm not here to convince you to work towards feeling better. You are always the number one factor. Only you can decide whether you are ready to start the process of recovery or not. You write your own story.  People might tell you that it won’t last forever. I know it seems like it does. I once believed the same thing, and I understand that it is the most defeating thought there is. There will be an escape for everyone, but there’s no telling when it will come. It might be tonight, or it might be in several years. And until then, you have a safe place that you are welcome to anytime. I strive to make sure that as a listener I can make our space feel like the safety that you need through anything that happens. If you choose to send me a message, make yourself comfortable. Feel free to bring your virtual comfort items into my PMs to create whatever you need to be comfortable, whether it be blankets, pillows, or a teddy bear. I’m always a PM away, even if I’m not online at the moment. I hope that you can feel safe to rant or whatever you need. 

Am currently not active I won’t respond to any pms 

I listen not to reply, but to remember what silence sounds like~ • A haunted mind wearing a quiet smile, Which is nothing but a scar in disguise. Inside me lives a cathedral of shadows each corridor echoing with the voices of loneliness, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and the scars of memory that PTSD never lets me forget. I don’t seek pity anymore. I seek those who speak the silent language of fractured minds. Some days I feel like a ghost pacing through the ruins of what once was calm. Other days, I burn too brightly, thoughts flickering like candlelight in a storm. Control is a myth. Still, I persist one breath, one step, one truth at a time. I’ve wandered long through the dark. If you have too then perhaps this is where our paths finally cross⚫⚫

Hi, I'm Steve! 😊 I'm currently studying a Master of Counselling, and I really enjoy listening to people and giving them a safe space where they can feel heard and understood. I have a particular interest in existential therapy and person-centred therapy. Outside of listening, I love getting outdoors and exploring nature, I’m fascinated by philosophy, and I love watching professional rock climbing (although I’m far too scared to try it myself! 😅). Whatever’s on your mind, I’m happy to listen without judgement and learn about your world.

I am here to help and support. I have been through some difficult times in life and recovered from them too. I don't accept topics like sexual health, suicidal thoughts, self harm, anxiety, addiction, loneliness, alcohol/drug abuse.

Life can feel overwhelming at times, and we all go through moments where we just need someone to talk to. I’m here for you. 🫂 Everyone’s story is important, and no feeling, or experience is too small to share. Sometimes all it takes is a safe space to open up, and that’s what I aim to provide. You don’t have to have all the answers, or everything figured out to reach out. Come just as you are! 🤍 You matter. Your feelings matter. You are not alone. ✨ Remember that even in moments of darkness, you are stronger than you think. 💪🏻 ------------------------- Session info: 🕒 1-hour sessions at a time. I support repeating members once a week. ❌ I'm not available on Mondays and Tuesdays. ------------------------- 📶 Status: 🟢 Green – I am currently online and accepting new personal requests.

I'm Kelly, I've been a listener here on 7 cups for quite some time now and I'd like to think that I've learnt a lot about how to support people who need it. I, like most people have been through some really difficult life challenges but I believe that by listening to each other and talking about our problems we can comfort each other and make things a little easier.
