No Personal Attacks

Bullying and harassment are never tolerated. Respectful dialogue is essential.

Keep it Confidential

Never share identifying information — yours or others'. Respect privacy always.

It's Not Therapy

Encourage healthy choices and recovery. Avoid sharing content that could be harmful.

Our Philosophy on Curation

We believe in curating the best accessible resources we can. We find 7 Cups is great at what they do — that's why we recommend them and haven't built these features in-house. Our goal is to connect you with the best support available, not to reinvent the wheel.
