To support the teen community with the knowledge that I have as well as being open to learn, gain knowledge and skills from the teens.

To not pressurise the teens into doing anything they do not want to do, including encouraging offsite contact. To not overstep or overshadow the teens when supporting and guiding them, or monopolise within the teen community. To have a duty of care when caring for and supporting the teens in the community, so that I am not pushing boundaries and keeping the teen community safe and supportive.

...See more Many people may not be aware that here at 7 Cups we are divided into two parts. This is so we can keep all of our teens as safe as possible. Everyone 18 or over is on the ‘adult side’ which is fondly called the ‘oldie side’. And the ‘teen side’ which is populated with teens:- Teen members aged 13-17 Teen listeners aged 15-17 And also with adults called ‘ATL’ (adult - teen listeners) who are aged 18 + but who have been approved by the admin team to listen to teens. They will have the ATL badge by their name in the rooms and on their profiles. You can read more about them further down this post. As you know 7 Cups reaches world-wide! As such different cultures can have different terminology about when a person reaches adulthood, for 7 Cups this is on the 18th birthday! It might be called ‘transitioning’ from teen to adult, or it might be ‘aging-up’, or it could just be the beginning of adulthood. For some, reaching twenty-one is a more auspicious age when they reach adult status!  Did you know that we have a special team of listeners called Teen Transition Mentors? [https://forms.gle/RTZTeNxyFBeehz2eA] These are a team of listeners that specialize in supporting teens during the time when they approach their 18th birthday and after. We can offer support in the form of information about what changes to expect, or perhaps by helping guide you through the adult side.  Here is the link to request a Teen Transition Mentor (TTM) to reach out to you  https://forms.gle/RTZTeNxyFBeehz2eA [https://www.google.com/url?q=https://forms.gle/RTZTeNxyFBeehz2eA&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1767456448255367&usg=AOvVaw1hGAqc0O9vYb1Hf13VH_9h]  Helpful Links for Turning 18 FAQ helpful tips about aging-up https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AgingUpSupport_1766/TeenTransitionFAQs_337189/ [https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AgingUpSupport_1766/TeenTransitionFAQs_337189/]    About ATL (Adult - Teen Listener) https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AdultTeenListenerProgram_2487/BecomeAnAdultTeenListenerATLSupportTheTeenCommunity_292412/ [https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AdultTeenListenerProgram_2487/BecomeAnAdultTeenListenerATLSupportTheTeenCommunity_292412/]  Why you should become an ATL, because . https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AdultTeenListenerProgram_2487/YoushouldbecomeanAdultTeenListenerbecause_231025/?p=3 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AdultTeenListenerProgram_2487/YoushouldbecomeanAdultTeenListenerbecause_231025/?p=3]  Helpful FAQs about the group support rooms FAQ [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/CommunityManagersOffice_2008/FrequentlyAskedQuestionsGroupSupport_215692/?p=2]  Changes to Group support [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/CommunityManagersOffice_2008/ChangestoGroupChatStructuretoFosterCommunity_335497/] Community Mod Schedule [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/CommunityModeratorsLounge_2143/CommunityModSchedule_318786/] Don't forget to join and visit the Aging-Up Support Community forums to keep updated about all things aging-up! https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/ [https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/]   Don’t forget to click the Join+ button to support the community and get notifications also add your name to the taglist to be tagged in future posts https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/WelcomeIcebreakersCheckins_2544/AgingUpSupportCommunityTaglist_351372/ Answer our questions about turning 18 https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AgingUpSupport_1766/Turning18_350981/?post=3843020 [https://www.7cups.com/forum/agingup/AgingUpSupport_1766/Turning18_350981/?post=3843020]

...See more Hello my lovely members! I've turned 18 yesterday (yippee)🙃. A lot has happened and changed yesterday, and the main this is, I'm an adult now! :) I have to apologise that because of that reason, we may not be able to be in touch for sometime now (well that is until you turn 18). It was my mistake for not being aware of that and wasn't able to let you know in advance 🥺. I'm sorry our last conversations were not that conclusive, as I was expecting to say our temporary goodbyes before my break. Again I apologise for disappearing like that. And thank you for your understanding! I really enjoyed our chats together, and thank you for your kind words. I'll definitely cherish our time spent together I want to let you know that I'll still be here for you 💛 even though we may not be able to communicate like how we used to, I hope we are able to reconnect here 💛. I wish you all the best in your journey to healing 💕  Lots of love Cozycat :3 (I hope I could give you a hug, well... a virtual and mental one if you're accepting of it) ------------------------- My dear members: I hope this message reaches you <3 (I still have a lot to say but I hope this can express my thoughts <3)

The human oldie I become.

 September 14th, 2025
...See more Greetings fella human. This is a reflection on my whole year on 7 cups, as a teen member. If you had been mentioned, it means you were & are a guiding light, in this chaotic world, in this journey called life. (I try to mention as much as I can) Mostly this is for the spectacular souls, my friends on cups who I met & befriend as a teenager. Of course, everyone else are also welcome to read. Now, I'm going to write, a lot. But you don't have to read everything, I try to mention each of you in a separated thread in this forum And send you a specific massage there. Feel free to read as much as you want. I believe we are ready to begin. So~ I am turning 18 in the first week of November. I have to admit I'm sad I wouldn't be able to enjoy Halloween & Christmas with you, but, today I'm here for more important things. One year ago, at September 2nd 2024, After my bro's insisting about joining cups, searching about it on the internet, and asking about it from AI, I finally joined the 7 cups community. (I want to talk about some of my struggles, to say how much you have been and are of help, so here is a trigger warning// I don't want to make any of you feel down because of me.) Almost everything felt awful, anxiety, sleep issues, depression, avoidance, self harm and some other mental health challenges I wasn't aware of. But, most of all, the loneliness... I could say it was the most hardest thing to deal with. I'm so happy to say "it was", not "it is". I want you to know how much you made me feel at home, because still I don't have friends near me, But you made me feel wanted, and you welcomed me with warm arms. Today.. today I am delightful to say I don't feel alone like a year ago anymore... I'm feeling so vulnerable & emotional right now, but i don't care at all, I'm feel ok to share think with you. I have a feeling, that these emotions, are needed, are ok. You know, I used to say I wasted my last year of being a teenager, but that's not true, one of the most remembering things I did was fighting with the fear, Joining & staying with you. I learned many things, I could say you was part of the reason I seeked professional mental help. Part of the reason I took my medicine, Part of the reason I restarted school after a long time, Part of the reason Im better at typing English, And many more things. But, one of the most important, part of the reason I want to become a better human. Maybe if I wouldn't receive your support, I would never heal, or not in a long time... Maybe I would've give up & leave responsibilities, May I would've become something I don't want to even think about. But now, sometimes I listen, even if I don't make people feel better, I really try to not hurt them either. Sometimes, I really try to imagine myself in others situations, and care for them. I hope I had been successful in this goal. That's not something to say by myself. One of the things that was and still is very remarkable to me, is every time teens listen to each other, As a listener, or even as a member in the support room. While they listen, it doesn't mean they are not through tough times, Sometimes even they are going through the same thing, But the act is fabulous to me, something more valid than money or looks, They listen to each other out of compassion, sometimes out of love, without knowing each others real full name, or sometimes without even seeing each other faces. Sometimes the member who was listening to another member, vent to the same member; And that's something magical to me. Maybe if all humans were this supporting towards one another, the world would've be a whole different place today. So when I see caring among you, I don't just see texts exchanging, I see a silver lining in this dark world. Thank you teens & adult teen listeners for every act of kindness you offered to me. For every single time you listened, for evey single time you helped or prevent a panic attack from happening. Thank you for every joke, very laugh, very happy tear that fell because of you. Thank you for evry good thing in my life that is because of you. Thank you for teaching me about empathy, nobility, kindness, understanding and many more. I don't want to stop writing, it feels as long as I'm writing I'm staying on the teen side, but now it's time to face the truth. I want to share some of my experiences. They aren't advice, or even suggestions, I just want to tell you this, because I don't want to forget some of my life listens. I hope hearing this would be helpful to you. I'll ask of you to please read this part even if you didn't read the blue part  Some say teens experience mood swings, sudden emotions, hatred, procrastination etc because of hormones. Some of them also add that it all would get fixed after you turn 18. First from my experience, there isn't anything needs to be "fixed" of course we all always have the opportunity to grow & do the right thing, but your emotions aren't something wrong, All normal humans experience different emotions, I could say they need managing & understanding. It is right that your physical state have a huge impact on your emotions, but even adults have mood swings etc, 13-17 is very challenging, but with the right help & guidance, it's manageabe & sometimes enjoyable too. I myself spent some of teen days without knowing about any of this, so I thought sharing this would be of help. So some of the most important things I learned and remember atm was Never give up, maybe I don't know when it will get better, but there's always to be hopeful for. It is true that my hormones etc influence my emotions, but it doesn't mean they are fake. Take a very good take of your physical health, that could only lead to healthier future. Even if you don't have access to professional mental health help, still care about your mental health, don't let challenges shape you. When feeling most awful, in the thoughts moments, as much as you may have some urges, don't stop eating, try to fight with self harm, think about making a decision, You have a life ahead, try to make it least better as much as you can. Sometimes those who hurt you are that carefree they don't remember what they say to you moments later, Reminding their words or actions in your head, or hating them will only hurt you, I know adults tend to say these stuff because we believe they don't understand us, but I'm telling you this when I'm still a teen. I know typing these may would be so easy regarding doing them in real life, but these words aren't out of judgement, telling you what to do, or questioning you. They are out of caring, because I don't want other teens experience some of the challenges I experienced out of not believing in those words. Some coping mechanisms aren't positive, Some friends aren't True, And at the end of the day, we are the one who takes some decisions. So I know we have limits, but I'm talking about the part we have control over, And of course, here I am rating and telling you all of this without being being in your shoes for a smallest time. On collective, after all the Sense & nonsense I wrote, I just want to remind you to try to take the right decision  Please if you're in crisis, reach out for help,  And never give up. All the best, 2nd September, NobleSeeker. @Macylou82 @lumibree @kenzolena @annasilverberg @communityModLucy @CommunityModAnne @CommunityModJennie @Andreaa00 @Hellokity313 @Sunshine1613 @AnnaSilverberg @Jesusredeemedme2425 @tinywhisper11 @yourlocalIKEA @whishfullashx @Bubbles2025 @serene1ake @sunisshiningandsoareyou @heartsamdrosesandpaws @kimino (I can't remember your name completely) @peacefullpurple08 @MistyMagic @MidnightMystique @youarenotaloneTix  (And more people I don't remember the username of)

...See more Trigger warning// I had moved to oldie side regarding that I'm still a teen, I was emailing cups community & etc to get back to the teenie land. Long story short, what am I doing? What am I trying to avoid? Trying to get back to teenie land, in about 2 months I'm turning adult anyway. I requested a teen transition mentor, they helped me so much with everything. I thought I'm ready! Like, I got everything sorted! But no. Adult side is dark, let's just say some teens are angles comparing to some adults, (sorry I'm so frustrated I k I shouldn't say this stuff) I saw disobeying the rules... Ignoring... And I can't become a ATL because I'm freeking doesn't have social media Handles & I can't complete the interview Wich are both required... I rather leave cups instead of staying on adult groups... Of course their is good & bad in both sides, but I'm not ready to cope with this challenge ATM.... Sorry I don't expect anything from you, I suppose you can't do anything for me probably, I just wanted to vent 😔
