“Talking anonymously with a listener made me feel safe enough to really open up.”

“I can just message on my way home from work and it isn’t inconvenient like scheduling a therapist.”

“I got undivided attention from someone who cared for the first time in a really, really long time.”

Founded by a licensed psychologist, 7 Cups has been featured in LifeHacker (“Technology can help you find someone to chat with about your problems to, or even connect you with a professional that can offer lasting, long-term help”), Medical Daily (“Talking therapy for people on-the-go”), and TechCrunch (“One of the top 8 startups from Y Combinator’s Summer ’13 Demo Day”).

100% CONFIDENTIAL:

Remain 100% anonymous. No one will ever know who you are—not even your listeners or therapists.

LISTENERS WHO CARE:

Our listeners are volunteers. They aren’t getting paid; they’re here because they want to help.

They care.

We have over 450,000 trained listeners and licensed therapists to choose from. Listeners provide support across 189 countries and in 140 languages. Each listener has a profile with reviews and a list of categories that they specialize in, ranging from panic attacks and bullying to eating disorders, surviving a breakup, and more.

When you find the listener you want, connect instantly via chat. Try a new listener each time, or pick one listener and develop a deeper ongoing relationship.

FAST & FREE:

The app is free to download, and all listeners are 100% free. After you download the app, you can start a conversation in less than 60 seconds.

Pros and cons of 7 Cups: Online Therapy & Chat app for iPhone and iPad

7 Cups: Online Therapy & Chat app good for

This is officially one of my favourite apps. Everyone are great listeners. This app helps with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar, anything you can think of. I love it.
I absolutely LOVE the idea of 7 cups. It is difficult to find such a great mental health resource, and I see amazing potential for the app! Unfortunately, it isnt the most promising at this stage. I find it very difficult to connect with someone when I need someone there. I remember once being in tears, but no one came through. The categorization of the community section is extremely helpful and the steps to a healthier you are my favourite part of the app, but the communication is a huge issue. As a self-care, self-help app, 7 cup fits perfectly! But, what makes its idea unique and especially value is the communication part, to speak with someone when you need a listening ear. Please please PLEASE fix this!
The app itself would be rated 3.5-4 stars while the website and the whole project that is 7 cups is would be 5/5 It is amazing to have people to talk to when you feel down, just away from a tap. Even when not many listeners are available, 7 Cups will help you calm down / feel better by making you do activities for your well-being and sending you caring message. I would recommend this app to anyone! You at least need to try it out!
The app is great as a concept, but needs a way to filter mean spirited and homophobic listeners. Who simply tell you to stop being gay opposed to offering legitimate support. It is very disheartening to hear on an app meant to help you. While the block and report feature is helpful. I think 7 cups needs to actively prevent users from dealing with this nonsense and ignorance.
Helped me get through my breakup, depression, and loneliness. Theres always someone there whenever I need it. Only downside is app can be a bit glitchy, but thats no huge issue.
Its a fantastic way to vent to someone about something that maybe you didnt report or you have no one who could understand you. This app has helped me a lot in dealing with my problems.

Some bad moments

They never posted my original review. Which may be because this app can be very dangerous to someone who suffers from suicidal thoughts or actions. I had tried talking to one of the "listeners" to which, the listener decided to tell me everything was my fault. They need to look at who becomes listeners more closely. Very concerning.
Every single time I try to use this app, no matter what day it is, no matter what time it is, there is no one available. I really need the support that they advertise and I have yet to get any kind of assistance. It gives you the option to leave a message for a listener to get back to you as soon as they can. Weeks later I have still not received any response. I have attempted to use the app on multiple occasions with no luck. If you are really looking for support or someone to talk to anonymously, this is not the place to go for it unfortunately. Really disappointing because it seemed like a really good idea.
The majority of listeners are very bad at what they do. They give advice and talk about themselves when they should be listening to the other person. Im a teen so Ive only had teen listeners. I cant say its the same for adults. You should NOT go on this site if youre a struggling teen who needs emotional support.
I love 7 cups of tea and I work as a listener (soulhelper812) but I cant even log in because it keeps telling me my password is incorrect. I have tried online and it works perfectly. Im just having trouble with the app. I even reset it and it still doesnt work. please help with this issue. thanks.
Tried to submit a new thread post, but it was impossible because of how glitchy this app is. Incredibly frustrating and annoying, maybe get a working app before you attempt to help people.
I suffer from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and intrusive thoughts, and I desperately needed help during the time when I decided to use this app. The person I was connected to labeled me as a murderer and told me that she would contact the police. I realized myself that I needed professional, open-minded help from an individual, not these ignorant, shunning depression inducers. I will never seek advice from people here again. Screw you.
