What made you come back to 7 Cups?

For peace of mind. Advice..help!

I came back because I really like the site and how it works in terms of that I can chat and share my problems without people knowing who I am, I left because certain members where getting very annoying and attempting to ruin the site but I have decide that I will not forsake the site just because of a few member who cause trouble and use vpn to not leave the site

That's a great question! I did have a moment when I was a newer listener/member and I left the site for a few months. My reasons were that I just didn't feel connected to the site anymore. I think I also burned myself out as a listener (I didn't have any guidance to know when to stop and I didn't know of the many resources like mentors that I could have spoken with to help me) and I was still dealing with a lot of internal issues. I also wasn't nearly as active in the community as I am now. I only would take chats and that was all, I didn't think I would be interested in being actively involved with communicating with other listeners. Plus I never knew any fellow listeners and I was never contacted by any of them. I was probably a little intimidated by other listeners as well, for my lack of knowledge of them. It was only until the end of last year, that I knew I missed 7cups and being a listener. I ended up talking more on the forums as a member and realized how special our community really was!

I honestly feel like if I hadn't got to know as many fellow listeners as I have on the forums, I probably would have left again. Fellowship was a huge reason why I ended up staying. Lack of support and welcoming as a listener, was a big contributor as to why I left for awhile.

I came back to calm my anxiety relax by doing the growth path an talk with people who actually listened for the first time and i appreciate everythin :)

The people here were so amazing and had same experiences as me and it's great to share so I keep coming back!!!

@Laura I came back because "Life" got to me again. I knew a place where I could come to, to talk it out, be heard. For someone living alone away from family for work , 7 cups is kinda like my family dinner table or that chat with Mom or Dad in the den after dinner. So I come back... :)

I came to 7 cups been having rough time starting feel better in self since joining will be continue to come back

7cups has a good messaging layout

Well I came to 7 cups because I needed help with my mom's depression and my ADHD and also because me and my mom have never had a good relationship

@Laura
