Hi Ami, you are so right about mental health being in crisis mode.
How has 7 Cups helped you cope with your mental health challenges?
A lot of times this has been the only place where I could connect with anyone and get support. Encouraging words and just someone to listen. Helped me through some very dark times. I have tried a few other sites but none of them meet what I have here. Thank you seven cups, and all the people that have been here for me.
@WorkingitThrough2
I'm so glad to hear that you feel supported at 7cups!

Sad to say, it hasn't a whole lot. I should come here less, but routines stick hard I'm afraid.
@OneErased
Friend. You're one of those wonderful persons on this earth.
@OneErased
Having balance in life is important. I hope that in future you will find that balance. 💙
@OneErased I enjoy your presence in the discussions.
Maybe you are helping other people more than yourself. That is another way we find value in 7 Cups.
@amiablePeace77 How has 7 Cups helped you cope with your mental health challenges?
When I first came to 7 Cups I had a sincere desire to help people. I did listen to a lot of people and some of them gained benefit from that, but I learned a valuable lesson that I have to create a stable environment iwthin myself before I can really help others as much as possible.
Now I do not try to solve problems as much as listen and empathize. 7 Cups has taught me a lot about relating to others.
@soulsings
Nice that 7cups helped you to grow!
@amiablePeace77 thanks ami and recognizing that helps me feel better about myself.

i arrived here in 2017 and I was a little lost. I was struggling yet I became a listener. I found the website tough to navigate on my phone so I was not that active for a while. A long time member told me about the app I just returned this past January. The site has grown and I just love it.
Yes absolutely it helped me a ton love the pathways still working through them. The listeners are incredible here. Then I discovered the forums … love it and love the communities here. The people here no matter the role make it a safe place to fall … a haven and open community that is non judgemental. 💕💕💕
@SunShineAlwaysGrateful I am so glad you have found benefits in 7 Cups. You are very supportive of others.
For me supporting others takes me out of my own misery. It seems to be working for you too.
@soulsings
Agree 💯 percent and thank you. 💕
@SunShineAlwaysGrateful
I'm so glad that you returned in January and also joined the 50+ community as CM. You do an amazing work here to support everyone! 🙏
Thank you 💕 I enjoy it a ton.
