Members - Welcome to 7 Cups! Introduce yourself Here!

Hi I'm Mars, one of my friends recommended me this, so I decided to try it out, and everyone seems nice :) I have ADHD, and sometimes I like to rant about my hobbies and interests. I also am a transgender male, and have been struggling with the way I get treated by my parents because of that and in general.

Hi everyone, I have just joined 7 Cups of tea and my experience so far has been great!

Hi I'm brko. I feel lonely a lot, mid 30s, unmotivated, pretty sure I also have ADD.

Here to figure out why im sad and lonely a lot and how to get work done.

Hello all. I'm Maebius, just exploring this app and finding the chat quite nice and helpful thus far. I juat moved, so am in that 'need to find locals to bwfriend' as a middle aged guy, which is tricky when you don't do Bars and stuff (recovering from booze and depression/anxiety)

Nice to meet all y'all :)

I joined to be a supportive hand to those in need. I did not always have people willing to listen to me, so I know what it's like to feel unheard. I hope I can make an impact on someone through this platform!

I am studying psychology and joined to listen to people in need. Nowadays we are more or less socially distant from each other and being able to talk to someone can be very helpful getting through tough times. So it is a good cause for me to participate as a Listener.

Heya! I'm Lisa and I've heard of this forum from pinterest. I would consider myself cheerful and happy for the most part, but I live in a homophobic household(i'm bi and I have to do suppress myself) and sometimes feel too much pressure on myself to be perfect. I'm looking forward to meeting new people here!

hello my name is jjuly1034 i am having trouble with teen depression

Looking for fellow socially awkward people that can relate to having difficulty making and keeping friends due to what seem to be autistic tendencies. I don't make eye contact with others because it feels very intrusive of their space. It feels rude, and I don't understand how it doesn't feel rude to other people. When I meet someone new that I like, I overshare almost immediately. I hate small talk and prefer to get into deep subjects. I tend to be argumentative, challenging the positions of others, beyond what is apparently appropriate. My uncle calls me hard nosed. I had to look that up! I had no idea what that meant. Oxford Languages has the informal definition as "realistic and determined; tough-minded." which I take as a compliment. But the Your Dictionary thesaurus suggests synonyms of "unyielding, hard-headed, obstinate, resolute, bull-headed, hard-boiled, hardheaded, inflexible, mulish, obdurate, and pigheaded." A bit more harsh, but in all honesty, they do describe me. So, I don't have trouble intruding on other peoples' mental spaces, just their physical spaces. Resisting the impulse to speak my mind is one of my biggest challenges. Verbal aggression when feeling very stressed is my second biggest challenge. These two challenges have caused estrangement from family members at different times in my life. I am currently estranged from my adult son, going on 7 years. It breaks my heart, but I understand.

Hi! I joined 7 Cups as a listener because I find it extremely important to give voices to those who would are in need of support. I know what it feels like not to have anyone there for them and I want to be that person who is always there for somebody else.
