Hi. I'm Bella. I am currently a high school student (sophmore), in Minnesota. I have struggled with severe depression and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I am also apart of the self-harm community. I will be going on 3 days without a relapse.
I'm trying to find peace and support on this app. But it's really hard for me.
XOXO

Hey everyone! This is Esther - I was brought here through my friend's recommendation, as we both studied psych in uni and were interested in becoming psychotherapists. So this platform seemed perfect! Very excited to be here and to lend a listening ear.

Hello, you can call me Moon! I'm currently studying for a recovery support certification in my state and figured having similar experience here would help me become a more professional listener. I want to do my best with anyone that I help so that they feel supported and heard!
@TransientMoon
Welcome to 7 cups! I hope you find listening to people fulfilling!

Sending lots of love and blessings ur way 💞 Hugs 🤗

@TransientMoon Hey 🌙. Welcome! I wanted to wish you all the best with your certification! 😀 In my state, we have something like that but it's called peer support specialist. I'm literally still actively pursuing becoming one and working on my 20 hours and online requirements before I continue forward with in person training. Hopefully, you're progressing well along and I hope everything goes well for you. Super proud of you. ☆ I also hope you enjoy your time here on 7 Cups. ♡ Take care.
Welcome moon! That name is so beautiful, and we are so happy you are at 7 cups!
@TransientMoon Love your username! 🐾🤍 I hope you have a wonderful time here 🥰 You're amazing <3, and you truly matter 💖 Sending loads of love your way 🐞💕

Hi, I'm Kay, I'm new here. I am looking for ways to love myself. Thank you!

Hi Thompson (つ≧▽≦)つ
Welcome to 7cups 🌸, I'm the happiest person here see you joined here with us <3 we are so glad that you find ur way here 😊 hope u have a great experience n the support you looking for ❤️
I appreciate you joined here, it ur step of healing journey 🤗, we love you more than u think, you matter here more than u could imagine 💕 Yayy..!!! Cheers for ya (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ 😊
Sending lots of love and healings ur way ❤️
Hugs 🤗

@kthompson419 Hey Kay. I'm Desiree. Hiiii. 👋 I think it's beautiful that you are looking for ways to love yourself better. There's so many ways you can do this! Here's some things that I can think of at this moment:
1. Allow yourself to make mistakes. And when you do, forgive yourself.
2. Make time to prioritize yourself. Use this time to do things that genuinely bring you joy.
3. Write yourself a love note. Write down all the things you currently like about yourself. Eventually that like can turn into love. 😉
3. Spoil yourself. It doesn't have to be big. Buy yourself something nice you wanted or even buy yourself something sweet to eat. (Food and snacks make me happy and boost my mood. Lol)
4. Date yourself. Don't be afraid to go places by yourself. Get dressed up and go some place that you feel safe and happy. Get to know yourself more. 😀
5. Never compare yourself to other people. It may be hard, but you're in a league of your own. Remember that.
6. Set boundaries. This is important. If you have to decline someone's offer ot say "no"... do it! Don't be afraid to do this. Protect your person and your wellbeing.
There's soooo much more! Just start small. Do one or two things and keep on going from there. Every day do something for you. Be kind to yourself along the way. I'm rooting for you! ❤️
