Welcome!
My name is Faith, and I'm a Listener here on 7 Cups! I've only been here for a few weeks, but I've already witnessed how amazing this site is. All the Listeners that I've come into contact with are so endearing and truly want to help you out! I'm really glad I'm able to be apart of something like this where I'm able to support people in their time of need. I also really enjoy coming to the forums and checking out the subcommunities and getting to connect with people that share experiences with me. Welcome, all new members and Listeners, to 7 Cups!

Welcome to you too.
This is my favorite place to be.
I have learned over the last year...
Follow the guidelines and they will protect you
and you'll know what to do
and how to stay out of trouble.
Avoid the Drama Triangle and take good self-care.
Find your safe niche here to make things the most comfortable.
Find the best ways you can be most helpful for others and you too.
Enjoy the "helpers high" and (aka effects of helper theory).
And remember we don't give advice here...
"Ultimately, people change when they are ready to change.
Our job as Listeners is to basically show care, support, listen,
and nurture that motivation to change.
Simply caring will help awaken or help uncover the strength to start the change process."
