Do not feel shy, say "Hello!!" and what is your story? Please use this space to introduce yourself to our community.
Let me introduce myself-
Hello, my name is Obs. I joined 7Cups in July 2017 as a listener. I got to know about this platform from my friend and I loved the idea of listening and supporting others. I think all emotions are valid. Everyone has own struggles and how it makes one feel, only the person who experiencing can understand it. But you are not alone. If you need some support and a compassionate ear to hear you. You can count us.
Now it is your turn!! 
Hi, I just joined a few hours ago, stumbled on this app from Google play and give it a try. I am trying to get over someone because it is obvious that he doesn't care about me anymore and he had found someone better. Been reading articles and watching youtube videos on the-how-to, even have confided to a few friends about it. And yet I still can't move on. Also currently I have a serious problem at work that could affect my future. All in all, this year has been rough for me, the past few months especially. I need someone to talk to and want to listen, because I'm afraid I might go insane over all of this. Thank you for reading my ramble.
Hi my name is Samantha or Sam and I joined because I have 2 daughters and I was in 2 abusive realionships. And now that I'm in a healthy one I'm not sure what to do or how to act.. And sorry for the bad spelling
Hi, my name is Elliet and I joined 7cups because some recent events had pushed me to the brink of attempting suicide and after talking to a friend I cane to the conclusion that I should get help. I know that I should probably see a professional but my parents think that Im just ungrateful and over dramatic even though I have been diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety. I am 16 y/o and look forward to trying to live my best life.
Also I accidentally posted this twice and dont know how to delete one of them
Hi, my name is Elliet I am 16 and I joined 7cups today because some recent events had pushed me to the brink of suicide and after talking to a friend I came to the conclusion that I should get help. I have had professional help after attempting and I was diagnosed with clinical depression and anxiety but my parents still tell me that Im just overdramatic and ungrateful. I hope to find a stronger support group on 7cups and I look forward to working in living my best life.
Hi! I'm Jae. I'm a new listener here in 7 Cups. I want to be able to offer support to people who need them because I once experienced not receiving help at all from someone I expect the most. I'm in the field of Psychology and I want to experience more about it. If you need some help, do not hesitate to contact me. I am fond of watching documentaries and real life movies - action and mystery. I want to know how to be an expert listener, that is my goal why I joined 7 Cups.
Hi all - I'm EQ. I randomly heard about this site the other day and decided to join. I'm going through a rocky period in my marriage as well as in my career and it's been hard to cope and move forward. I look forward to experiencing all the site has to offer and wish you the best of luck in your respective journeys. Onward and upward!

Hello everyone! My name is Mollie, Im 16 and I have struggled with depression, food and severe anxiety for most of my life. The past 3 years have been really bad. Through all of this I have discovered I want to help people in similar situations, and I want to become a therapist. If anyone needs a good listener I will help in any way I can. (Ps Im still learning 7 cups so I hope I posted this right haha)
-love Mollie
@mollie25 Hi Mollie! <3 Welcome to 7Cups! That all sounds really tough, I'm sorry you've had a bad few years <3 but that's so great that you want to help others as well, you definitely seem like a caring person and we're glad to have you on this site! <3 Have you considered being a listener on 7Cups in addition to a member? Maybe something to consider eventually, if not right now, if you're passionate about the whole helping-people thing <3 but, anyway, are there any ways this site can support you with your own struggles as well? Have you had a chance to connect with any listeners? You might also check out our subcommunities for anxiety, depression, and eating-disorder support, they all have some great resources as well as daily check-in threads where you can get support and tips <3 If you need any help finding your way around the site, or if you'd like to chat at any point, you're more than welcome to shoot me a message! I hope you're having a good day! <3
Hello! First time writing on this site. I'm kinda awkward, sorry. So right now I'm unemployed, have no friends and scared to talk to others. But I am feeling lonely so I want to try to find a way to speak somehow. I've never had friends, I've been avoiding people ever since I can remember. At school I was always reading books minimizing talking to others. I've realised I had a problem when I dropped out of college because I was so scared of others I couldn't even get to class. I then started counseling and taking depression medication (my doctor didn't even diagnose me as depressed, I just told her I thought I was depressed and she gave me prescription) so I'm still unsure (I do know something is wrong with me tho). Counseling helped make me realise I'm not the worst person on earth, but that's it. I have a bad habit of running away (ignoring?) when there is a problem so I stopped medication as soon as I was slightly better (not suicidal) and stopped counseling because it costs a lot and I have no money (no job). Since then I've had some jobs in kitchens but I'm never happy and always lonely. I feel bad talking with others yet I feel bad alone. I don't know what to do anymore.
im megan, i struggle with self esteem, social anxiety and i guess depression. (i dont like to say i have things when i obviously havent been diagnosed because im too scared to tell anybody, besides my boyfriend, how i feel). i feel like im meaningless and that i dont matter, but i do want to try and help myself by making friends on here or by just messaging other people who can either help me or people who feel the same way. ive decided to join 7cups because i think id much prefer to tell people who are either likeminded or professional rather than tell my friends or family and risk having a bad reaction.
