Welcome back Poppy!!!

Thank you for sharing this, it means alot to know that I'm not alone in this. I too struggle with understanding why or how things started, and my therapist has given some pretty good advice I think.

I've been at that point in my healing process that I keep wanting to talk to more people who have been through these things, and before I had found a discord server which was pretty good, it just allowed 13 year olds and it made me uncomfortable to discuss such intense things with kids reading. So I'm relieved to find a place such as this where there are more privacy measures taken. I want to be able to help others dealing with this, so I'm available to listen most times, I just know I'm still dealing with too much so I'm sorry to say that I think I n
