First, I am so glad to be here!
I am a military wife and with it being mental health awareness month a list was sent out and 7cups was listed as a great way to talk without people knowing who you are. I grew up with no one to talk that I used to put all my emotions and thoughts deep down and pretend they weren't there. I don't want someone to feel like they are alone and have no one to talk to and I want to be that person that people go to when they need to talk or vent.
No one should feel alone!
@starryComfort9930 thank you for joining us and I agree, no one should feel alone
Newbie here! I am a 37 year old mom of 5. I deal with past trauma but making gains. I am at a point where I feel the best I have in over 20 years. While managing my own mental health, I am also in school to become a therapist. With this in mind, I am about to start a work study job helping people in crisis. This means that self care and community of support is most important for me right now. I hope to get to know some wonderful people here to consider a part of my community of support.
@AutismMamaBear welcome, and best wishes also with your therapist training!
I am Janetttt, and the reason I signed up as listener is I want to help more people

@dynamicHuman7157 it's great that you found us, you're most welcome!
@Heather225 What brought me here? Honestly, I just wanted to do something meaningful with my time — and I know how much it can help just to have someone who listens without judgment.
I hope to find connection, learn from others, and grow into a better listener as I go. I signed up to listen because I’ve always been the “talk to me about anything” type of person in my own life, and I wanted to bring that energy into a space where it can really make a difference.
Looking forward to getting to know you all! 💬🌱
@POMPSON10 You're very welcome here! Best wishes on your listening path
@POMPSON10
I can relate to having the 'talk to me about anything' type of vibe as well. You will definitely find speaking to others as rewarding, motivating, educating, and so much more. Best of luck with your journey here.
Hi everyone. I'm Jeni3. I was brought here because of my college wanting volunteer hours and the fact that I can do it by helping people makes it so wonderful. I didn't knowabout this place until my teacher recommended it. I signed up to help people but just listening to them as sometimes that's the only thing truly needed. Someone to listen is monumental. Thank you for having this platform available to help people in need.
@Jeni3 you're very welcome to 7 cups, and best of luck with both your college course and your listener journey here!
Thank you so very much.
Uh... hi! I'm Char (they/them), I came here because I was scared of physical therapists, wasting money, getting set on meds that just make things worse, and I'd heard great things about this site! So far, it's been nice, and I hope to continue using this!
@CharNonbinary welcome to the community Char!
