I joined 7 Cups today - I recently started therapy but I'm looking for people to talk to who have been through things similar to what I'm going through, and hopefully learn from each other. I might have OCD - lots of intrusive thoughts, and a lot of fear about my health (which the Dr. says is perfectly fine).
I'm not sure how 7 Cups works and what would be the best option to connect with people like me. Any suggestions?

Found out the phone app has issues AFTER I updated it and was told not to.... LOL! The phone app is a bit of a challenge to maneuver around in. I usually just use it to see if I got any notifications, then I go to the computer.
I've appreciated some of the acquaintances I have here. But was wondering if there is a way or any plans in place for members to message back and forth, or do you have to become a listener to do that? I understand the concerns in that I guess... but it would be nice to connect with others in that way.
Thanks for all you do to make this a positive experience for everyone here.... 😊

Hi! I am new and really don't know where to start.
@indigoKitten5758 welcome <3
do you use the app or the website? some of the features and the layout varies 😅 I find the web better for exploring the site.
