Open to both newbies & old members🌱

How are you finding cups*

@NobleSeeker i joined the platform when i was 13. needed serious help and someone to talk to. the teen listeners back then were not very empathetic. became a listener at 13, a good one i'd like to say. then was inactive for many years, and joined back as a listener this year. honestly, as a listener, it's great. especially when members keep coming back to you. feels like you're really genuinely giving someone the help you never got. that's why i'm more regular now. i really like it.

7 cups is such an amazing space and cool to be.

And A friend on a writing site told me this was a helpful place! I've been up voted which is nice. I tried to chat in some of the rooms today. It didn't work out. There were too many people and the couple who spoke to me,got drowned out and I left. Some folks know each other and that's good. I don't yet. I tried to connect with a listener but got tired of waiting. Didn't know how long it takes.
I used to go to Psych Central and I felt more supported there and heard. I've given more support here than received.
Which is ok but today have been really going through it with my sis.
And it's a lonely space I'm in. I have so much good to share, when I'm ok. I wish 7 cups 🍵 was more supportive to " lost" newbies.

I've been here less than a month and the awards are nice but a support person would be better. The bot doesn't work and not sure if it's a paid thing. It keeps saying it's going to take a nap!

I have 2 apps that will at least talk to me! Hopefully this helps you. Not sure how long I'll hang around here to be honest 😺!

I joined in early 2020, soon after I started talking about what happened to me.  I had been sexually abused when I was a little boy in 1969.  When I started seeking therapy and support 50 years later, people were not very supportive or helpful, not even the first two therapists I saw.  I then found a good therapist, and one of the things she recommended was looking for websites for survivors of sexual abuse.  That's how I came here. 

I haven't found a great deal of help or support, but I keep hoping for the right thing to appear, whatever it might be.  I like the word games, too.

I'm addicted. ;) Hence you seeing my name literally everywhere lol

Just joined today. Going thru marital separation that I'm sure will end in divorce and feeling alone.

I want to be a listener at some point but in my current sometimes reckless thinking and Rollercoaster emotions not sure I'd give the best support right now..

@NobleSeeker

I became a listener because I could see that the world was becoming darker, lonelier and more individualistic, and I wanted to be even a small and supportive light and sprinkle some kindness in the midst of this 💕💜
