Members - Welcome to 7 Cups! Introduce yourself Here!

Hello! I'm very new to this type of community and I joined 7 Cups as it seemed to be a very supportive place. I've been looking for a place where I can help other people who seems to actually appreciate it. I'm also planning to start my self-growth journey and the support is welcome.

What's up every body!

I ended up here because after 10 years of the hassles of ins companies, doctors, staff, pharmacies, etc. I am at wits end.

I have severe lung illnesses and other things, but the lungs are primary. I go to an average of 100 appts a year. With driving to and waiting for appts, treatments, and phone calls and emails and follow ups, it a full time job.

I ge the illness part, I'm mortal. The management is making me suicidal. It is issue after issue after problem after problem. It never ends. 10 years of this. I have given some to my wife, but she handles it worse than me. My sister is a nurse and I have handed some to her, but its more work than its worth.

I have a contact at the corp ownership of my ins co who helps, and I have a NCM, but the issues are endless.

I feel like it's just me. My mom is seriously ill too and she never has issues. Never. She is on Medicare, and Dr.s are good and on time, no mistakes. Pharmacies are good, no problems with authorizations, etc.

Anyone have any coping ideas?

I've been to the end of my rope many times over the years, but for some reason this time it feels worse...

Hi my name is Sophia! I’ve been an active listener for 3-4 months now

Hi, I'm fairmindedLand5539, you can call me Fairminded, or Will, which ever you prefer, I'm not picky.

I'm 31, super shy/introverted (I have a painful time making friends usually), and I'm a divorcee of a year now, with a 6 year old, and after a year (during quarantine no loess) of trying being my own support, I figured it might be time to instead, venture into support group type settings, so I can help support others, and in turn, seek some support when life just seems too tough.

Nice to meet everyone

I applied to be paired with a mentor to become a verified listener and I'm not entirely sure if they received it or what the next step is

Hi! I am new here, nice to meet you guys. My preferred names are Farren and/or Gretchen. I am a 13-year-old, turning 14 on April 29th. I use She/They/Them pronouns and currently question my sexual and gender identity. I am clinically diagnosed with ADD and Anxiety-Disorder and have a licensed therapist to help me with that. Again, nice to meet you.

I have joined 7 cups because I really really wanted to be heard and i was not in right place , I still am but joining 7 cups has made me feel better and I joined as listener to as I have always been good listener for my friends and I wanted to do this and I am really really happy with overall experience

Hi, I'm Finley or Finn, either works just fine. I joined 7 cups because I'm tired of feeling alone even though I have friends who would drop everything to help. I am turning 17 in just a couple weeks and the looming stress of almost being a senior in high school is terrifying. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety (generalizied, social) in 8th grade and I went to therapy 4-5 times but I hated it. If anything, it only made it worse. I am also a closeted trans guy who struggles with gender dysphoria on a daily basis. Right now, I am feeling good which is the best I have felt in a couple of weeks.

Hi 7 cups listeners!
