Hello Jazzmin, Welcome to After Silence I wish that nothing had happened to you that caused you to need a site like ours but I'm glad that you found us to help support you through the aftermath of what happened. I am glad you have been able to reach out to get therapy and that you have come to the point where you feel talking to fellow survivors could be helpful for your recovery journey. That is interesting that you maybe moved to Sweden as you say you don't speak the language at an advanced level! How adventurous to have made a move like that and I hope you enjoy living in

Welcome to AS SailorMoon and I hope you'll find this to be a safe and supportive place where you can talk about things with people who can understand a little better where you are coming from after enduring trauma. good luck!!! ActivistAlly

Hello Sam30, I'm sorry you went through something so traumatic. There are no "shoulds" when it comes to a time frame for "moving on" because as you say it's hard. I think it might be a good sign that you are ready to share your story and I hope that AS (After Silence) can give you some of the kind and compassionate support you deserve as you work towards healing and adjusting to your life after trauma. I am part of the Newbie Support Team (NTS) and would like to officially welcome you to After Silence. It's our sincere wish that AS will be a safe and supportive site for you to explore
