7 cups is causing me more anxiety than anything
I keeo trying to connect with listeners. They are green. No one responds. When they do, I share what I am trying to discuss. They immediately stop answering. I am not sharing anything inappropriate or sexual or anything, just loneliness and sadness and hopelessness, and this app just has me constantly checking my phone, hoping for a reply and it never comes. No one cares, no one wants to talk to me. I feel like I'm a mistake and the world would be happier if I wasn't here.

I do not know if there is an App problem. Could you just hit the Chat button? Those chats are usually picked up rapidly.
@ResonantRadiance Hey...I'm sorry you're having difficulty connecting with a listener. Hopefully you've connected with someone by now. Many are here and care and YOU are not alone. 💖
I understand... I'm struggling with those same feelings and having similar thoughts... In fact, a huge percentage of us are all experiencing this... But I promise you, you didn't do anything wrong just like the listeners didn't either, it's absolutely not personal on their part. You are NOT a mistake... The universe doesn't make mistakes... You were born to be here and have survived up to this point for a reason that you just haven't been shown yet and that's something to be excited about, not afraid.
I don't know if you have ever heard of cognitive biases/cognitive distortions or what therapists that practice Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (C.B.T.) call "stinkin thinkin," But the gist of it is that all of us are naturally predisposed to bias and to making mistakes in thinking but we do not know we do it until we learn about this so I'm hoping this will help you as much as it helped me because it has completely changed my life. Talks about not being able to connect with listeners and feeling unworthy, lonely and hopeless. Do you understand what I am saying now?
I’m really sorry. It makes sense that this would feel discouraging and personal when you’re trying to connect and people stop responding. But please don’t assume it means you did anything wrong or that your feelings are too much. People may disconnect for reasons we cannot see, and their silence does not determine your worth. You deserve to be heard, and I’m glad you reached out.
@ResonantRadiance
I wanted to check in with you. Look at all of the support! This is wonderful, so many people who care about you. I am wondering, have you been able to get the App to connect in any way?
What's wrong
@ResonantRadiance
Really sorry to hear that. I hope if there is some glitch they sort it out soon.
In meantime if you think you want to talk about anything you can reach out to me as well. If it's btw 7:30 Pm IST till 9 :00 Pm IST I hope we can talk when our schedule align.
If not that'st also fine. I wish you have a calm serene time here ✨
That’s really hard to feel and frustrating , especially when you in the mood of being alone and just trying to get out there and get someone to talk with
You already cut half of the way by being here on 7cups💪 🤗
Just keep trying to reach someone by personal requests and they will get your back as soon as possible (if they aren’t talking to other because some can’t get multiple requests at the same time)

Fair point
