Hello

[A new leaf]

Good day to everyone. I'm not that very good at English, so please, bear with me. This is my first time opening up, at the advise of my therapist. Where can I find similar stories as mine? I find that they give me strength to tell my story as well.

Welcome to AS!  I’m sorry for the reason that brought you here.  You’ve found a supportive place that many people here can relate in their own way.  Just know you’re not alone here.  Best wishes on your healing journey.

Hi New Leaf,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for the trauma you endured but do know this is a very supportive site.  I do know how difficult it is to open up, so give yourself tons of credit for taking this huge step and reaching out. Please be assured you will not be judged, on your experience nor on your English. We are a melting pot of people from all areas and all walks of life. Somehow we all tend to understand each other, with compassion and kindness. You are not alone. I wish you the very best on this healing journey.
