Hello, everyone!

Folks come to 7 Cups from all walks of life, and every single person here brings something to the melting pot that is our unique community.

I'm curious to know what brought you to 7 Cups?

A challenge, a transition, peer support, healing? Something else entirely?

Maybe you found us on a whim and signed up out of curiosity: what caught your interest and what made you stay?

Feel free to share only what's comfortable for you! I think it would be fun to see what kinds of similarities emerge from your stories! 

Remember, you're in a safe space here.

Looking forward to reading your stories!

@Heather225 I came to 7 Cups because of a college class where I needed to volunteer somewhere that helps people with mental health. My previous place didn't work out, so my professor recommended becoming a listener through 7 Cups.

Loneliness, not being able to connect with anyone and being tired of it

@Heather225 

I’ve been struggling with severe depression and anxiety since I was 15, but this year it got a lot worse. I’ve been having lots of suicidal thoughts and went back to therapy. I found it today because I had a fight with someone I love and felt like crap. I saw it on my Pinterest so I decided to check it out. I hope it’s what I need

@heather225 I was on another site and someone mentioned 7 Cups of Tea whcih it was called then. At that time I was answering questions about mental health on yahoo before the big change that made that difficult. I liked to be there for people so when I heard about 7 Cups I wanted to be a listener. My first year I learned a lot about being empathetic and also not giving advice, My mentor helped me a lot.

I have been in many leadership roles and that helped me expand my horizons. Thank you 7 Cups for this life changing experience.

i signed up to 7 cups for an opportunity to support others to get through things i have, to help others by offering a listening ear, and interact with others experiencing similar things to me :)

I don't remember the actual reason, but I was (and still am) a major mess mentally lol

I am also passionate and strong in faith, if you need a listener who can meet you where you are and help you grow to where you want to be, send me a chat with a little bit about yourself.

Enjoy your Sunday.
