Hello I'm new


Recommended Posts

Hello I'm new here. So glad I found this. Maybe I can take some of the stress off my husband now. He's the only one who knows everything and he's been a huge help. He'll even sleep with the light on if I need it.

Thank you. He's been my rock with all of this. I have hid my pain for about 15 years. No one knows what my life has been but him and when I did open up I had to type it out because I'm a selective mute.

Well, it matters none how you communicate things - what matters is you're getting things out and you're allowing him (and perhaps others now) to support you throughout your healing journey.  

I, too, choose to type things out - it sometimes makes certain words and feelings easier to convey that way.  There are so, SO many ways to get your thoughts out - writing is my personal favorite and being able to do so has been a tremendous outlet.

Wishing you luck - I'm sure you'll fit in here with no troubles!

Welcome to AS @Mirden

I am glad your husband is supportive, mine is too and it makes things easier but it’s also good to have other survivors to talk to I find. I hope you can find your way around here and feel supported in your healing.
