I'm new to being a survivor and reading what you had to say has helped me to look at the pain I've been through in the last 9 months in a whole new way. Thanks so much for saying all that. I might have to read it once in a while as a reminder that my hurt is nothing to take lightly because so often I try and force myself to heal because I should be able to get over this. I need to change that way of thinking and this has helped. Thanks again and again.

Welcome Tayessa I'm glad you found AS, but sorry you have a reason to be here. I hope that you find support you need. I know I have. Take all the time you need to say anything you need. Everyone is great!

Welcome Lupe

Hi Carmello I'm new here to. I hope that you are able to find people who understand. I have found that to be true of people here. mostly I've needed to be reminded that it isn't my fault, and I have gotten that here. You are not alone in this. Welcome

Thanks everyone

I'll just start by saying who I am... my name is Kari Jo I'm 22 years old I've been feeling pretty alone in this struggle. I don't even know what else to say now.
