Hi! I'm new and a bit confused
Hi! I just joined 7 cups and I'm totally lost. This app is pretty confusing and I don't know how to use it. Can you give me any beginners advice because I don't know what I'm doing.
@ireallydontknowatthispoint As you've already posted here in the forum, you could reply here and describe what caused you to come to 7 Cups, and what you're hoping to get from it. Maybe you'll get some feedback here in the forum that you'll find helpful.
By the way, the app is going to be replaced with a new one soon. Let's hope the new one is not so confusing

Some main things to do here are...
1) Chat one-to-one with a Listener: by either...
a) get on general request list and chat with whoever picks you
or
b) find Listener you search for here https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ who is online now and chat...
or send them a message and ask if they will schedule a chat when you are both available
or Chat in a chatroom with multiple people https://www.7cups.com/connect/groupChatrooms.php
or Chat in a chatroom at a pre-scheduled chat session (by finding the schedule on the calendar page
https://www.7cups.com/home/communityCalendar.php or schedules in subcommunity listings)
2) post a thread to a forum sub-community (like you already did)
or reply to other people threads
3) subscribe to a forum sub-community so you know when new things are posted
4) search forum sub-communities for topics or resources you are interested in for your own development... search by browsing through sub-communities or use the forum search box https://www.7cups.com/forum/search.php?searchForum=
(always click the "+ Read More" expansion link in a sub-community to see hidden overview information about that sub-community)
5) use Noni as explained at the bottom of my bio page https://www.7cups.com/@7motivation
for learning Self-Care, Setting Goals, Setting Reminders.
6) use the growth path tool https://www.7cups.com/path/
7) use self-help guides as part of your personal growth
https://www.7cups.com/supportGuides/selfHelpGuides.php
8) become a listener and do training https://www.7cups.com/listener/training.php
9) do mindfulness exercises https://www.7cups.com/exercises/mindfulness/?showlist=1
10) read "7 Cups for the Searching Soul" E-Book as a free 7Cups Self-Help Guide
or free at Amazon.com and read immediately in Kindle Cloud Reader
11) get unstuck using ideas on my profile page https://www.7cups.com/@7motivation
12) see questions others already asked (besides in the forum sub-communities)
or ask your own questions https://www.7cups.com/qa/ (but I like asking questions in forum sub-communities better that using that link)
13) read resources on the wiki pages https://www.7cups.com/wiki/
14) get on "check-in" message lists and get regular check-in questions from the forum support team to see how you are doing and share your feelings with others to feel part of a community
15) get crisis help external resources https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/articles/360026238093-Crisis
Please forgive any typos above.
