“Skip through to find a good one!”

It's great when you find a good listener that helps, it's so nice to have someone to talk to who's there for free and has life experience to share. There are a lot of weirdos. The minute I don't like someones energy I just leave and find someone I do like. I think thats how you can avoid the more unsavoury element of public internet.

There were rude and called me bad-mannered for requesting to be referred to by an alias. I clarified that my requested alias was NOT my real name. They called it a nonsense word and asked me why they should use it. They never even let me vent and were rude to me right from the start.They insisted that they were 'kind enough to give me a second chance' even though I never did anything wrong/rude. Another person didn't even read/pay attention to my messages at all and replied with nonsense. Both were very rude and dismissive before I even started talking about my problems. They found it funny when they made me upset.

Tip for consumers:
Please know that you may be connected with rude people

Blah therapy helps a lot of my problems with strangers, but some people come on to masturbate and be mean. And the report thing isn't really working and i feel as if they are not looking into it much. Ive sent almost 5 reports on someone who called me a $#*! and lots of other things because i didn't help him masturbate and he is still on this site. I feel they should look into that stuff more.

I used blahtherapy for a while both on my computer and my phone as a listener.
I got involved with someone who seems to use this website quite a lot, and who could exactly tell my location every time. My keyboard stopped working correctly after some days. I also heard that some other listeners/ venters on blahtherapy went through the same. So please take extra-caution before using this website.

You will not get any help on this site., You will get cussed and bullied off of the site. If you want real therapy, go buy it with some health insurance money.

At first Blah therapy was great, i could have some great discussions with good people but after 2 days of using it I started coming across some really inapropriate and rude people who just wanted to get into conflicts. I do not recommend.

I told the listener on this site that I just needed to vent and that I find it offensive when people offer oversimplified solutions to a complex problem. The listener agreed that oversimplified solutions were annoying, then proceeded to offer flippant and unrealistic solutions as I described the problem I am having. Their suggestions included legal action with no basis or tricking an abuser into paying me money so I can get away. I can't believe how bad this "therapy" is. It's worse than a public forum. Something that really offends me is when I say I can't afford to abandon my mortgage and live elsewhere and people tell me to just leave. No one ever listens. This site just confirmed that I am entirely alone and no one believes what I say about my situation.

Tip for consumers:
Don't. They were rude, inconsiderate and not what the site claimed to offer.

Went to vent for the first time to a stranger. Just said a couple words about what I wanted to vent about and 1st person says I'm "arrogant and self-abusive then." Got disconnected. 2nd person says "f**k me then. After I said what I wanted to vent about, then was disconnected again! 3rd person was nicer, talked to me longer but asked personal questions & gave some weird, generic responses. Asked if I "had anything to vent about" after we had already been discussing it for several minutes. Would not recommend! The listeners seemed rude, inappropriate and like trolls or bots.

Tip for consumers:
How many bugs the site has and how awful the people are that are listeners.

I joined this site to talk to someone anonymously because I'm to afraid to talk to the people in my life about my problems. So I thought joining a chat would help me because it would be free of judgement & I could vent. Do not use this site, the 1st listener I connected with was nice but they just randomly disconnected with me right before I was going to tell them what was wrong. So I then decided to get some courage and connect with someone again, they started by asking what was my good traits I thought the question was random so I just said I'm sweet & funny. Lol they then proceed to tell me those aren't good traits a serial killer can be sweet & funny, I instantly disconnected the chat. Seek real therapy with a license therapist please.

Idk if I know these people but if they are people I know in real life going anonymous they use every opportunity to be nasty. Or they could just be lying manipulators... anyway I'm done with this site.

There wasn't anything genuine about the exchange I had with a "listener". They gave me super short, generic responses and then abruptly told me to just break up with my partner and disconnected. I say it's a coin flip because I am sure there are good folks out there who actually want to help. It's not worth the risk of feeling worse afterwards.

BlahTherapy is no good. They are completely unhelpful. The people on the listening end, don't listen the majority of the time. They are often very rude. Insensitive. Sometimes hateful. They really have no ability to give any responses to anything that is shared with them. They are not trained in anyway. Few people on here as listeners have good hearts but you can not find them usually. Do not wate your time. You will be drastically disappointed.

I was going through some things with my relationships and needed to vent. I vented to the first person, who seemed okay at first, but then just rudely and abruptly concluded that the other people involved did not like me. Whether they're right or not, they made me feel much worse. I didn't even get to finish my vent either. I didn't want to risk another rude listener so I didn't connect to another one.

The purpose of the website is great but the people who join as listeners don't listen at all and give useless advices then just leave, I've also joined chats as a listener but I never leave the chat until I make sure the person on the other end feels better. If you join as a listener please don't be rude because some of us actually need to vent and have no one to listen to.

Most of the negative reviews here are because of an bad Listener. The website itself is quite good, and it's really helped me a lot when I've had problems in my life. It's great to be able to talk to someone anonymously, as a friend. Anyone complaining about a bad Listener matchup obviously didn't read the (very short) conditions written underneath the 'Proceed to Chat' button. I'd recommend this site to anyone who has a simple problem that they want to talk to someone about.

Tip for consumers:
BlahTherapy shouldn't be used for any dangerous situations. It's meant for people with smaller struggles that could benefit from chatting with someone about them. Also, it's important to read the 'Tips for Listeners' if you plan on using the site as a Listener.

I went there to get help about having to exist around an old bully after years. At first all I got was bots and people asking about my gender/ age, telling me what to do. But seriously the last listener $#*!ed my mood for the day. Except from judging everything I said, trying to prove me wrong and my problem unworthy, he outright said I am an attention whore and I like to victimize myself. He was being agressive and sarcastic all the way. I only said as much as my problem in 5 words and he immediately started downplaying it. The irony is same person said how better the side used to be and that he is really sorry it has turned out way. If you ever read this, just know that you are toxic

This site was created for a good purpose, to help people. I have found that if you find a "listener" on the site that is truly willing to help you out, that its an awesome experience. I found the site while in a dark place and a listener really helped me with that. The unfortunate part is that it is available to anyone with internet access. So you will run into trolls and people that have bad intentions.

When you go to a website to get help for your personal issues, you expect to be treated with kindness and sensitivity. I've gone on the website now multiple times for varying reasons in the hopes I'd just gone on a bad day for the site and that the people on there didn't actually act in that matter. My most recent experience on the matter was a few minutes ago. I've been feeling crushed by the stress of writing over 11,000 words every week for my book and I needed to be able to release that stress to calm down and keep up with my writing. I'm thirteen, so between hormones and puberty and school, it's all so much work and I feel like I can't escape that until I either graduate or stop doing the only thing I truly enjoy. When I went on the website, the first person interrogated me about where I lived and how old I was, obviously, I lied about my location, but when I told them I was thirteen, they immediately disconnected leaving me feeling worse than when I first went on the website. The second person listened to my problems a little but would tell me to just brush the stress off like that's something I can just do, after that, we got disconnected twice without either of us clicking the disconnect button. The third and final person started out fine, they asked how I was and what was wrong, but as soon as they read what I had to say, they disconnected, I was actually crying because of that. I often feel like I'm alone, I have absolutely no one to confide in, so I wanted to talk to people who were willing to listen to my problems and offer me support, but they didn't care either and made me feel even worse about myself than I did before. If you have problems and need to talk to someone, you can email me at *******@gmail.com. Unlike the people at BlahTherapy, I will listen to you and offer the best support I can, because everybody needs a helping hand.

Tip for consumers:
Don't go there expecting to feel any better once you are finished with the site.

This is a $#*!ing stupid site. I would give a zero star if I could. The people on this site are not genuine, unprofessional, have no actual empathy and emotional capacity of handling people who are frustrated or vent. I had a vent about certain things, and guess what? I felt even more frustrated after talking to one of the listeners because they disconnected in the middle of the conversation as my vent gets more detailed. It's so rude and unprofessional and it would just be better if they tell me that they cannot handle the amount of vent and they have to leave. These people are so terrible and don't even have a basic social sense.

Most of them DO NOT have any social insight, or emotional intelligent. Their response are so robotic and ingenuine. They have so little empathy sometimes I wonder if they are really "getting" the reason why feels something! This is absolutely a trash site and I would argue it should be taken down because it's misleading people and make them even feel more terrible afterwards. $#*! this site and all you incompetent and stupid listeners! Take down the site!

Blah Therapy has a great idea behind it, but it's a total crap shoot of who you'll be connected with and unfortunately many of those people suck as human beings or are WAY too young to be using the website. After chatting with a friendly enough seeming listener for a bit, I typed in something pretty sensitive and not something normal people laugh at. The response I got? "Go f*** kill yourself, dumb b**** hope you get raped." Definitely made me feel a lot worse--which is the trolls' intention. Just stay away and talk to 7cups or a real person.

Bland,, unresponsive, uncaring individuals with superiority complex. Quite pathetic if you ask me
"how are you"
"ok"
"wanna share"
"i see"
"are you f or m"
"i'm sorry"

There is something wrong with the people on here.

When I chatted they were extremely rude to me and they were dismissive.

I know they are trolls and they hate on you. But I was eager to just let out the stress.

There aren't very many sites to vent on anyway because there are trolls online everywhere. And also I wanted to give this site a try.

When you vent to these people they say things that don't make sense on this site.

Like they said "Why don't you do this____ like a normal person?"

It's a bunch of nonesense and also there is no such thing as normal.

I didn't like how they accused me of calling people a jerk when I didn't do that. These people are crazy.

Stay clear of this site. I didn't want to talk to people that lacked intelligence anyway.

I never go on the site anymore. Good riddance! I found something that was better instead.
