Hi SilentBird,

Welcome to AS. I am sorry you went thru a trauma, but you have found a very supportive site. I can understand your hesitation, but do suggest that you look around. If you post or not, is up to you, but you will see you are not alone. I know it's not easy to face things, I denied them for longer than you can imagine, but it just wouldn't go away. There is no pressure and maybe your comfort level will improve with time. It was courageous of you to come here, and I only wish you the best on your healing journey.

Thanks Mary and I am also sorry for the trauma that brought you here.

That realization that I am far from alone, is very disconcerting. I have been looking around but it's all just a little raw for me and I'm just trying to make sure I can still breathe.

Hi SilentBird, 

Welcome to AS! I know how you feel and understand your hesitation towards seeking help and support.  I am 21 too and only now 10 years after my abuse I am seeking support for the first time. I am glad that you have taken this brave step which will bring you healing sooner than later. Safe hugs if ok:console:

Hi silentBird, I know it can be raw, but take your time going through things and yes it is important to breath

I am so sorry for the stuff that happened to you as a child. I know how messed up that is...
Thank you for the support.

Welcome to As.

I hope that you start to feel comfortable here.

:notalone:  :supportu:

You  guys have made me feel comfortable. I'm just not sure when or if I want to start dealing with my healing. Just thinking about it makes me feel very vulnerable. I get that heebie-jeebie feeling.
