Calm down...and breathe. ;) Go to your SR Account, and check under 'Unconfirmed'. It may be listed there. Unconfirmed pretty much means the transaction is in progress. Sending bitcoins to your SR account is not immediate. My bitcoins usually hit 'Unconfirmed' status within 12 hours. And it can take up to 3 days for complete transaction in my experience. There are lots of factors...depending on country, payment method, the site you're withdrawing from, etc.. I'm not familiar with Bitcoin7. Check hxxps://bitcoin7.com/index.php?show=withdraw_funds. They have a table based on destination/source and payment method. Considering it's only been 5 hours, you can probably take a deep breath.

Absolutely: some times it can take a bit: about 12 hrs seems to be the norm. I only had one time where after 24 hrs it still showed nothing...and I notified SR and it was fixed immediately. Patience is hard, and I know: it seems you have btc floating around in the universe somewhere...I've been there, but I've yet to loose anything on SR. I had just sent a *bunch* of btc to SR, right before it went down seriously for days, during the 'Dark Ages' a few months ago, when we weren't sure *what* had happened...but they came back, and I'm sure yours are just on their merry way to your account here :)
