As 7Cups is a support site, have you ever been motivated here?

Yes I have

What did you want to do?

I wanted to try new things that this person suggested and believe that it would improve my mood

What did the person say to motivate you?

Just something simple-little things like they believed in me, they understood me, they made me feel legite like I wasnt a freak but human just needing a bit of a "kick"

Did you succeed?

I didn't at first, but this person kept checking in with me and sending little motivational things

Have you helped somebody to be motivated?

Yes I have

What was it about?

It was on low self esteem-they didn't believe in themself or even have proper support. So by committing to chatting with them, listening to their struggles and lack of motivation we came up with a few things we done daily together

How did you feel afterwards?

I felt surprised-only cause deep inside I didn't know I had the skills to motivate someone else knowing I was having issues with it as well. I felt happy to have made another person see that they were a great person and to love themselves
