I can't remember if I've posted here or not so hey! I joined in April this year as a listener, the community has been great so far and I've really been enjoying all the site has to offer and as well as me being able to help others I've been able to gain insight into my own shitty mental health through self help guides and courses and everyone here is so welcoming and kind!

How are you doing?

I'm well today! The sun is out, so is my anxiety but I'm coping well and I'm tired as hell cheeky
What is your favorite season?

Autumn!
How did you hear about 7 Cups of Tea?

I've seen it mentioned in a number of places from therapists to tumblr to happiful magazine and the blurt foundation enewsletter and eventually decided fuck it, I'm going to try it - I did try as a member a while back but didn't have a good experience with my listener and gave up quickly but I'm so glad I came back to this site because there is a lot it has to offer and I want to be here to help and share and get to know everyone.

How is everyone? Feel free to message me anytime! I hope everyone finds something today to smile about heart

I believe you have but that's totally okay! cheekyIt's great to see you here again lol. It's awesome to hear that you are finding that being a listener is such a positive experience for you and I hope that continues.

I'm pleased you're doing well too. Yay for the sun, that's always a bonus when it chooses to come out. Although the anxiety is still there, I'm glad you are able to cope with it - hopefully you can get some sleep too.

Autumn is amazing!

We're pleased you did decide you wanted to join however, I'm sorry to hear you didn't have so much of a great experience as a memeber. All you're doing here as a listener is muchly appreciated!

I'm doing okay, thank you for asking! I hope you also, can find something to smile about today!

Take care!heart

hello everyone! i just joined here in april! i have struggled with depression, anxiety and ptsd since i was in the military. since then i have been diagnosed with other mental illness. i saw an ad for 7 cups and thought it was interesting so i checked it out. helping others and listening to their stories is really helping me to consider my own journey and keep my thoughts in check. it is helping me to communicate at a better level, not just with random people i come in contact with, but with my daughters and that means a lot to me. i sincerely want to learn all i can to help others and be a shining light when they feel their life is dark. thank you all so much for reading and i appreciate all the help that has been provided to me since i became a listener!

@Ottie thanks for the response. i am in a place that is very new to me so i feel very brittle and vunerable. i am worried as things were so good and easy and with a turn of events my own psychological anxiety and poor job attitude i find myself forced out like i didnt expect it.i am worried for my family and it is a tough time as i am so mad at myself as well. i had a meeting today with the union and management so im more upset then normal...i am feeling old because of it all which isnt helping...i have a hobby love of music which is somewhat saving me..its a battle to get up to play today.

Hi Everyone,

I joined just the other night. I think my main battle at the moment is loneliness due to a breakup after my longest most serious relationship. I have PTSD and have struggled with self-harm. So, those experiences are exacerbated by the feeling of loneliness right now.
