I'm a 48 yo woman that lives in the Northwest US.
I'm glad to be here. I'm currently looking for a therapist and initiated the therapy process through here yesterday, as the counseling place I can afford is booked through May and the first few days of June.
I'm looking forward to seeing what is available to keep me on the right track through the website and excited that I'll get to explore the Premium features and tracks while I'm in therapy.
I'm glad to make everyone's acquaintance!

Hi everyone! I found 7cups yesterday when I was scrolling for ways on how to deal with my depressive state lately. I am in my 30's, in a biracial marriage, no kids yet, living in abroad (in my husband's country), far away from my friends and family. I became unemployed here March last year, lost my dog (of 14 years and who came with me from my home country) the next month and then to top it all, me and my husband constantly fights. I feel like a total wreck but also trying to manage my my day-to-day life. I am planning on getting therapy just for me to have someone to talk to because I couldn't talk to my mom or friends about me and my husband's problem, and then I found this site. I still am not sure how this works here but I will try to navigate and hopefully get encouragement from here. It's been hard dealing with life lately. It's like I want to be gone but I am still sane enough maybe to know it's not a good thing. I want to leave my situation but right now, I don't have that many option. Hopefully soon, this darkness will end.
Hi I’m Milly,

@TalkToMilly Hi Milly welcome to 7 Cups

@cojuiceboxx
Hey Ares, welcome back! It’s really cool that you’ve rejoined after all this time. It sounds like a big journey from when you were younger. How’s everything going?
Hi I just joined! I’m a psychology and biomedicine student
@sushi284
Hey, welcome! That sounds like an exciting mix of fields. How are you finding your studies so far?
@sushi284 Welcome! I am also a psychology student!
@Heather225 Hi, my name's Sam, and I'm just starting out as a listener. I'm from the UK and I like to travel.
@WhatAboutSam
Hey Sam, welcome! That’s awesome that you’re just starting as a listener. How’s it been so far? And I have to ask where’s your favorite place you’ve traveled to?
Hi everyone. I remember 7Cups from years ago, but had not been on it in a long time.
I am here now because I am a college student working on my Master's in Social Work and my school offers us the option of doing the listener internship for part of our degree practicum.
So far, it has been interesting, and I've enjoyed the people I have talked to and the huge amount of resources and information for learning more.
@RainbowFerret852
It’s great that you’re back and exploring 7 Cups as part of your Master’s in Social Work. The listener internship is a good fit for developing skills in supporting others, and I’m sure it will be a rewarding experience for you. How has the process been so far? Have you encountered anything that stood out to you?
Hi! Im a new listener and i can't wait to start this journey🌺
@Maryinascolto
Welcome! I'm so glad you're here, and I'm excited for you to start this journey. Is there anything specific you're hoping to explore or learn along the way?
yes! I want to give a purpose to my emotional abilities and if I can do it by helping people I'm more than happy. I also saw that on 7cups there are some paths that I can take to know myself better!
