A Talk On Self-Care By SukoLovesHito133

Talker: @SukoLovesHito133

What is your idea of spending a balanced time on 7cups? Share your idea of how a good day looks like on 7cups, for you.

Suko: I’d say if you're a listener, spend about 1-2 hours at a time, then take a self-care break. If you're taking on multiple members at a time, take a step back, and relax. You can not help everyone all at once. It is not humanly possible. If you're a member on 7cups, and you're looking for help, submit a listener request, then do something relaxing while you wait, as you may be waiting an extended amount of time.

What challenges did you face in trying to strike that balance?

I faced burnout, stress overloads, higher levels of anxiety, and sometimes even panic attacks.

How did you try to deal with those challenges?

I lessened my load, took more self-care breaks, and did things that I found fun, to lessen the stress amount.

What are the benefits of improving your balance for the time you spend on cups?

Like I said before, it lessens your stress amount. It also prevents burnouts and anxiety/panic attacks.

What message would you like to give to the cupsers who have come to be negatively attached to cups, in one of the many ways?

Please, please, please don’t use 7cups negativity! It can hurt your mental, emotional, and physical health. It can also bring up traumatizing experiences someone may have been through. Please think about how many people you could be hurting, just for your own satisfaction.

Any 7cups friends you care for? [We'll tag them in the interview.]
