Hello, new survivor here

[PurpleDaisy13]

I am a survivor of csa as well as r(not during childhood or same perpetrator). I hope this website and forum will help me feel less alone. It took me a long time to even write up this introduction. The only person in my life who could truly understand csa passed away early this year so I have been having a rough time, not only with her death, but with the loss of my confidant. I only told her a month or so before she passed, even though it happened years previous. It’s been a long road, but I hope reaching out for help like this will help.

Hello PD,

Hi @PurpleDaisy13

I am new too. Welcome. I think we found a good place. Just reading everyone's warm welcomes has a therapeutic effect on me. I hope you find the same. We are NOT alone.

Hi, PurpleDaisy13, and welcome!

@PurpleDaisy first off Congradulations on your first post, it takes a lot of courage to take this step. Welcome to the AS family you will find many people here that can support you and understand and relate to your story. I am so sorry to hear about all the past trauma. There is healing hope and peace, it just takes time and no one has the answer as to how long I guess its differnt for everyone.

Hi PurpleDaisy,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for the traumas you endured, both as a child and an adult. I am also sorry for the loss of your friend. Finding someone who supports and understand the struggles you go thru I know isn't easy. It must feel like a double loss to you. Good news is that you found our little site and we do have so many understanding, kind and supportive members. You are not alone. Reaching out is never easy, so I acknowledge your courage. I do wish you the best on this journey of healing.
