Hello, This is a new experience for me so I am a little hesitant and nervous as I explore new opportunities...However, I am thankful that I found 7 cups and with it the possibility of advice and direction as it pertains to a family issue that I am struggling with.

Hey there.
Sometimes reaching out and trying new things can be really difficult, especially when we feel anxious or nervous about the thought of it already. I just wanted to let you know that I'm proud of the positive step you have taken by coming to 7 Cups and I hope you find the comfort, peace and help you may be looking for.
Just wanted to say hello join a couple days ago.

Hi there! I'm Laucha, and the moment I discovered this site I fell in love with its proposal. I certanly hope to bring some light into others darkness, as much as making the world a little bit better.
I'm from Argentina, I love to listen peoples stories, connecting to nature, watching a good movie with my wife (ok, even a bad one it's a good plan), photography, computers, cats and dogs, pizza, music... so much to enjoy when you write it down!
Anyway, I'm no pro at this of being a listener, but I'll do my best to be what it takes in order to help others. I hope that I can grown here as much as I can.
Really nice to meet you all! 
@Laucha

Hello,
am new to this...
Oh boy, where do I begin? I'd like to say I suffer from depression, though i've never been diagnosed by a doctor.
I am a rape survivor, and lately i have been suicidal. I am going through a very tough time in my life,
where all the things i've left bottled inside just decided to explode. Am dealing with so much, but I want to get better.
I'm excited to be here.
@Violet1988 omg I'm so sorry to hear what you have been through my heart goes out to you. If you would like to chat one day please feel free to message me I'll respond asap.

Hi, I have joined recently as a listener. I am taking my time learning the site and have been a bit hesitant to actually do some listening but I am getting there. The couple of chats I have had have been good and feedback was positve so I guess it is just a matter of relaxing and answering the bell :-)
Hi, I guess im kind of new. Been on and off as a member but recently become involved as a listener because i enjoy helping people. Ive just started my first job in a start up recruitment agency so stress levels are high at the moment and sometimes my depression levels become unmanagable
Hope everyone is having a great weekend
@majesticWaves91 big hugs it must have took a lot to say that so just know I'm proud of you.
Hi, I'm Bobbie, a 73 year old widow with 3 adult children, 4 living grandchildren and 5 great-grandchildren...all my life I've had a problem with depression and everything that goes with that.....

Hi Everyone!
My name is Ashley and I just joined the community a couple of days ago, so I figured it's a good time to do my intro post
I have been battling depression and anxiety for most of my life, and after coming across this site from general mittens over on twitch, I thought this might be a good way to both learn from, and help others who are also dealing with mental illness.
Hope to see all you lovely people elsewhere on the site, and keep strong, positive, and hopeful!!
@ashleykae
