@littleTriangle23 The majority of 7 cups is free to use.

The free aspects are different than therapy, so it depends what you're looking for. Support from others who have gone through similar things? Absolutely. There are also some great resources floating around, some are official 7cups resources and others are just things people have found and choose to share.

For a 1-1 chat it helps if you have an idea of what active listening is. It's also easier for listeners who don't put in effort to pick up more chat requests, so  it's not unusual to have a not so great chat when sending our MT a general request. There are some absolutely amazing listeners though! It's just often easier to connect with them by seeking them out. Browse listeners, look at listener forum posts, see what a listener says in group chat, etc.

I just signed up and I am learning more about the app. It depends what help you are looking for, for beginners you could start by reading post and reaching out to others through the available forums. If you want to share with me, you could also start a chat. All the best.

@rejuvenated01 Welcome! That's great that you've jumped in while still learning. 

Member Welcome Pack might be useful. 

For a 1-1 chat, at least 1 person needs to be a member. 

If you continue to enjoy the forums you might be interested in the forum supporter role.

Sorry, I meant to say at least 1 person needs to be a listener, 2 members cannot chat via 1-1.

Yes , I did get help , I talked to some really nice listeners here , but there's a catch don't trust them blindly at first don't revel identity, but yes talk about your problems that'll be fine.

Hi, I would love to share my experience here. I’m a member from 2017. Been on and off at times. Spoke to listeners and shared views with members here. Frankly I don’t feel lonely and I don’t feel I’m struggling alone. I have read stories of success and stories that can make your heart down. Relationships, family issues, disorders. My empathy grew and my struggles seemed smaller with time. I wasn’t looking for a solution but rather a heart to hear. I came to believe that we all have hardships, traumas, problem but in our own. A kind word received was a kinder word given. Give it a try and see how supportive this community is. We’re not the same but we all have pain and wounds to heal. Please don’t hesitate to heal along. Compassion can be a cure to many and a medicine that can cure you. 

All love to you 🥰

I'm new here, I talk to listeners almost every day, you can choose what you say and without going into details. I've discovered that even a conversation with the right listener can give you tools to reach self-understanding. In any case, it's not a substitute for therapy.
