Welcome to AS. I am so sorry for the trauma you've experienced.  You will find that everyone here is friendly, supportive and there is no judgement at all. Your not alone here and many can relate.  Take your time to look around and best wishes on your healing journey.

Hi! Welcome to AS! You can say as little or as much as you want. As @Hiddenstars said "Take your time and remember than your story is yours. You get to decide what you share."

Hello and welcome to AS! I hope you find your comfort zone. Feel free to share as much as little as you like, you are not barging in.

Hi @noctambulist.  Welcome to After Silence (AS).  When you are here, YOU get to decide what, when, how, where, and why you share things.  Take it at your own pace.  Look around, read, post where you want to.  I can attest to the supportive, accepting nature of this community.  You have taken the hugely brave first step of posting your first post. 

I look forward to seeing you around and getting to know you.
