Hi everyone! I don't know why it has been so hard for me to make this first post on AS. I feel like speaking out is the next step I need to take to continue this journey of healing. In my heart I feel weak for reaching out for help but in my conscious mind, I know this is not rational. I know I need to speak out about the crimes and abuse inflicted upon me. So I am joining all the brave resilient beautiful souls here at AS. I am taking this step.

Hello Created2Thrive,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for the things that bring you here, but you will find tons of support from our understanding members. It's not easy to reach out, but you have, so in my book, that is courage. Nobody had the right to hurt you, but finding your voice is a not just a next step, but a huge one. I wish you the best as you begin more forward steps on this journey we call healing.

Welcome to AS @Created2Thrive I like the username you chose :) Glad you were able to break the ice in posting your first post here, it's understandably difficult to search for a place like this, to join AND to post. Well done :) Happy that you took your time, hopefully you will feel the support that this board has to offer. :aswelcomesu:

Welcome to AS.  You may think you are weak for reaching out but I can tell you its the bravest and hardest thing to do.  It is so out of our comfort zone and not feeling in control. You will find you are not alone here,  we understand what you are feeling.
