I just checked it. I don't need the badge since I never was a "verified" listener. I prefer not to be, you see. Also my full legal name is not something I wish to divulge. Thank you for your understanding.

Welcome to the listener team! 🥰
It's amazing that you're starting this journey at such a young age with so much self-awareness. You already know your strengths and your boundaries that's huge. Your honesty about what you can and can't support will help members trust you even more.
13 days in and you're already making a difference. Don't forget to be gentle with yourself too. You're doing great. 🌸
@Claimlistener thanks a ton for the warm welcome! I appreciate it, you really made my day!
@auditjay77 Welcome
Thanks for your patience ☺️
@xTuomix
Nice to meet you 😊 💚
Hi everyone! :)
I am a teen listener (I am 16),
Female,
I speak English,
I have been a listener for almost 2 months.
Topics I am best at supporting are
anxiety
depression
self-harm
eating disorders/disordered eating
family issues
divorce
lonliness
school (and life) stress
faith struggles and questions!
Topics that I don't support are
NSFW topics
hate or discrimination
if you are actively in crisis or harming yourself or someone else
LGBTQIA topics (lack of personal experience)
I have lived experience in many hardships, which have shaped the way I view the world and treat other people. I understand what it feels like to feel unseen, disconnected, anxious, depressed, and alone. But I promise you, you are NOT alone, and there are so many amazing people on Cups that are here for you! I think that healing is not linear, and it is different for everyone. You don't need to be "bad enough," to reach out, I'll meet you where you're at! :)
I am open to both short term and long term chats!
I am available most afternoons and evenings PDT, and I usually pop in and out throughout the day. We can schedule chat times if you would like, or can send messages back and forth "popcorn" style.
If you want to know more about me, you can read my bio, or send me a message, I'd love to hear from you!

@Claimlistener

You just made my day!
@insightfulEyes3026 Hey queen, welcome to 7 cups! I was going to send you a message but idkk it won’t let me? xx
@Heather225
Thank you so much 😊
@Heather225
One firm boundary I've set is keeping my phone in another room at least 30 minutes before bed it's helped me sleep better and reduced late-night scrolling. The hardest habit for me to break is checking notifications first thing in the morning. A strategy that's actually worked is using 'Do Not Disturb' mode during focused hours and setting a 10-minute timer for social media. Small changes, big difference!
