Hello
Hi I'm Rebecca,
I'm in a bad place mentally right now and am scared that I'm not going to be strong enough to make it. But I'm hopeful so I came to get help and maybe make some friends along the way.
So, hello 🙂
@Bubblesareblue *hugs if you are okay with it* Hi Rebecca, welcome to 7Cups. I'm so glad you have reached out for support; that takes so much courage and strength. If you ever need to talk to someone, the listeners are available.
Let us know if you have any concerns or questions. Best wishes, and have a great week! :)
@lovelyWhisper66 Hello, and thank you for welcoming me, and for the kindness and hugs they are greatly recieved! *hugs* back to you :)
Yes I do actually. What should I do if a listener wants me to chat to them somewhere else? Two have asked me and it makes me very uneasy that they asked.
Hi Rebecca, Welcome! Please know you are not alone in your feelings. We have all had those feelings at one time or another. I am sorry you are feeling that way now, and wish I had some magical cure for you. I can say there are many wonderful tools and amazing people on 7cups, that you may find useful in helping you to cope. I am new too, less than a month. At that time, I was VERY VERY low and distraugh, in a very bad place indeed. I have foud it helpful to go to the Share Circles, they have them 4 a day I think. Very supportive. Also, hopefully you will find listeners that a good and you can connect with, that's helpful too. Glad you posted, it's important to reach out. I'm not very good at it, but working on it. Glad you are, it will serve you well. Hope my words help. Here if you need. Be safe and well!
@optimisticRaspberries5247 Hello, thank you for your kind message and the encouraging words. I wasnt sure about reaching out at first but I thought, well I dont want to be like this forever so I might as well see if it helps. Im glad I did. I have met a few people already and some have been so nice and supportive already! I yet to find a helpful listener but I guess its early yet. I will look for the share circle and explore everything else hopefully over the next few days. I am so sorry to hear you were feeling in such a bad way! *hugs* I hope youre a lot better now and that things are on the up for you :) Youre always welcome to message me if you need to talk. My shoulder is always here to be leaned on. Yours words helped a lot, thank you.

Hi, Glad you did. I saw what you posted about the listeners, your instincts are correct! If it happens again, just disconnect. Make sure it's disconnected, use the disconnect chat button. If it's really creepy report them, and be sure to leave your comments for their review. Most listeners are just average people, not professionals. You can also review them before you connect. Sorry that happened to you. As for Share Circle, the one at 8 EST is usually very supportive. Ok you are off to a good start, keep up the good work. And thanks for offering your support too!
Hi Bubbles. I'm a listener so if you need to chat just look me up under Regmo7.
@Regmo Hi, thanks for the offer! Really nice of you.
