powerlesstoy Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 I'm a survivor of incest. I know it has damaged me, and I've felt so isolated because of it. I've searched for/explored survivor community's before, but this one seems exceptionally solid, well moderated, and vibrant, so I'm actually interested in investing some effort. We'll see how it goes.... Link to post

kyukidojen Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 @powerlesstoy, welcome to AS. I'm so sorry you endured what you did. I understand the isolation. This site is a good community - we're all different but there's this common thread between us. People here are accepting and non-judgmental. The moderating team is involved - and we are all survivors ourselves. We're all trying to heal, and we're all at different stages. I hope you're able to find the sense of community and support that so many of us have found here. Link to post
