Hello and community check in
Hello! My name is Kristy! I have been a listener since October if 2014. I found 7 cups during a very difficult time in my life. I found the community to be incredibly supportive and shortly after I found 7 cups, I signed up to be a listener because I found such great value here and I wanted to give back what had been so freely given to me.
I would love to hear from everyone how you found 7 cups and what the greatest value you gave received from the community.
I also would like to hear about your losses and how you are coping. Let’s all check in here!

@Kristynsmama hi I'm lola ❤ thankyou for making this sweet post ❤
it was actually one of my carers who set me I on this site a couple of years ago now. I had just learned how to use the internet and computer's, I'm not allowed to use most social media, so I just use this site. It's taught me so very much ❤
Tw) I've seen many die, and although they were all strangers, I mourn for their suffering. My son I also watched die, I couldn't help him. I miss him so much, I wish things were different sometimes😥
Hello Kristy,
I think I found 7Cups randomly when I was just searching through the internet looking for support groups. I joined in 2017, a time where I was easing off all my medications for depression and insomnia, and was in need of a support system. 7Cups has now become my go-to place for help and support from fellow members. The only place where I feel that others understand my situations and shows empathy towards things I've gone through/is going through.
November and December, has many anniversaries that will need to be remembered. Some people are whom I've known, and others are celebrities that I've admired and brought inspiration into my own life.
The saddest part of it all is, it's not like I could take each of those days off from work just to grieve and reminisce memories of them. Some are still heartbreaking, just to think about how she/he left us.

How I found 7Cups - I found 7Cups when searching for online therapy portals. I didn't expect to join the Forums and community at the time, I was only searching for online therapy support but with time I found out this is a really nice, safe and supportive space for everyone 🥰 I'm coming here every day <3
How am I coping - today not so well but in general I'm managing. Today I'm having one of my periodic depression/grief episodes. Thanks for asking and caring <3
