Welcome to AS. I don't know the difference between the message board and the blog, but I do know you have to have a certain number of posts before you can go to the chatroom (maybe 20?). You will get more responses on the message board.
Hi, new here as well and taking baby steps. I am amazed at the strength of many of you as I read a few stories on the board last night, my story seems pale in comparison, except the wound is still there, and I'm tired of being chained.
