tinderboxofaheart Posted June 23, 2017 Hello everyone, My name is Alanah. I'm new here and I'm looking for support outside of my friends who I'm lucky to have in my life. About two months ago, I was sexually assaulted by my now ex boyfriend. Not only am I dealing with that but I'm also dealing with the extremely awful break up which happened a couple weeks after what happened happened. My family doesn't support me at all and don't believe me. All I have are my friends who have been there for me through so much. I dunno, I'm just looking for some more support I guess. Thank you for having me and I look forward to talking to you all! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

phoenixxx Posted June 23, 2017 Welcome to AS. Alanah, and sorry for what happened to you. I am glad you have supportive friends, but having an unsupportive family must be really hurtful. Hope you find some comfort here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BraveOne Posted June 23, 2017 Hi Alanah, Welcome to AS. Sorry for the trauma that brought you here, you will find us to be very supportive and mostly easy to make friends with. My family isn't supportive either so I never told them about what happened to me, so I can relate a little. You can heal and over come all these obstacles.
