7 Cups is literally one of the most helpful resources for mental health that I've found (and it's completely free). The community on 7 Cups is so welcoming and supportive, nothing I've looked into can compare <3 I'm on the website as both a member and a listener, and I truly mean this when I say that both ends of the spectrum of supporting and receiving support on 7 cups are really fantastic and it's a great experience every time I log on.

A great initiative with a great community
I first used 7Cups as a 14 year old. I love the community so much. It is positive and full of good vibes.
Can vouch for the admins and moderators who have been nothing but nice in my experience (both as a listener and a member). I really hope this tiny part of the internet remains a shining beacon for a long, long time!

Really great however there are some issues that negatively impact people
Ive been using seven cups for years both as a member and a listener aswell as had friends who used the app as members. There is a lot of good and quite a bit of bad;
Overall i think if you find the right listner and you already know how to interact with people in group chats its great for those in need of help. However, finding a good listner as a member can be difficult for a variety of reasons. For people with more complex disorders who struggle with suicidal ideation with no intent or real will on committing as part of it, such as what can happen in DID, mood disorders, chronic illness, most listners are semi understandably not knowledgible on whats happening and unfortunatley ive found a few listners, both as a member and as a listner, to be extremely calous about their approach. So if you have a more complex disorder and struggle with living, finding a good listner that understands can be difficlt all be it not impossible.
As a listener my experience have been mostly positive, there are some great mentors who've helped me out so much and im infinitely grateful to them for all the help. However when asking for peer support with a particular chat i came across a rather rude, callous and not very understanding teen listner who was verified and a mentor so i think there needs to be more nuanced training avalable and made mandatory surrounding how to handle more complicated issues with vulnerable people. Other then that i have no complaints
As a member, ive managed to find a lot of great listners however for new people joining for help from listners specifically, newer listners understandably will likely not be much help. For issues surrounding anxiety and just needing some general support they tend to be good though. For therapy ive had a pretty fantastic experience, my current therapist understands me and my struggles really well and i adore her. I personally dont participate in forums or groups much so i will not comment on my experiences there
Overall, i like the site a lot. There are some rather notable issues that should be addressed however i havent found them to be a big enough issue to impact my experience however for others with complex issues it was a dealbreaker for them and i dont blame them.

A great place to give and get support
I've really enjoyed being a verified listener on 7 Cups. It's been awesome connecting with both fellow listeners and members. The platform has such a positive and welcoming vibe--it's clear that everyone here genuinely cares. Whether I'm chatting with someone who's reached out for support or working with other listeners, the supportive atmosphere stands out. 7 Cups really makes a difference, and I'm grateful to be part of it. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for a supportive and friendly community!💖

A Beautiful Platform
As a listener and recent internship graduate, 7 Cups has brought such a meaningful impact to my life. I love the community, the mission, the solid but empathetic grip we are taught to have over each situation, and the teaching hands we can fall into anytime we get stuck. I wouldn’t trade my time on 7 Cups, and look forward to many years on the platform.

Working as a therapist for 7 Cups has…
Working as a therapist for 7 Cups has been and continues to be a powerful, and enriching experience.
I also have a private practice which I
really enjoy too. But in 7 Cups I have the opportunity to work with a very diverse and international population.
The app makes therapy more affordable and accessible to more people. To me this is very important. Therapy can feel very intimidating, but because of the anonymous texting format clients can feel safer.
I have one client that is hearing impaired so they really appreciate the texting format.
If clients do need more, there is also the Telehealth option (live video and audio therapy) which means that they can sign up for the Telehealth subscription on 7 Cups. This includes one 45 minute scheduled video session on the secure confidential 7 Cups platform.
I am a better therapist because of the ongoing learning and growth I
experience as a mental health provider on 7 Cups!
