Hello, I'm New Here

[PurpleBee]

Well I had typed out this whole thing but then my computer crashed and I don't feel like re-typing all of it so here's the short and sweet version

I havent talked about whats happened to me or how I feel about it. I'm new to this. 

I go by PurpleBee, or Bee. I am 22, college student, and female. 

I just want to say how I feel and be listened to in a safe and understanding environment.

Thank you.

Hi PurpleBee, Welcome to AS. While its is sad that you feel like you belong here, I'm hoping you will find much support and understanding while you work through what has happened to you. Its daunting being new here at first but hopefully you'll soon realise you are not alone.

Good thoughts and prayers,

Sarah

@PurpleBee Welcome to After Silence.  This is a safe place to express yourself and tell as much or as little of your story as you want.  I have found this site to be very helpful to me in my recovery and hope you will find what you need here to get better, too.  We're glad you found us.

Hi Bee,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for what you have been thru, but you will find tons of support here at AS. Sorry for the frustration of losing all you have written. I've been there too. Anyways, it did take courage to reach out. Give yourself time and look around and you will become comfortable with the site. I wish you many forward steps on your journey of healing.

Welcome to After Silence, Bee!!   

I echo everyone else who has posted before me - I am late to the party - but wanted to add that you took a HUGE step in the right direction by signing up, joining, and introducing yourself.  That's not by any means a small feat and you should be proud of yourself for having done something so courageous!  I hope that being among us brings you peace, comfort and healing.

All the best,

Capulet

Hi

I've made such good friends here. I've found help, advice and support from my and other people's posts. I also find this and easy way to say how I feel and keep a record of how I feel.

I hope we can help you reach your goals

@PurpleBee Welcome to AS!  I haven't been here very long but it has been in incredible journey. There is so much to learn here at AS. It is a supportive community.

Hey everybody. I’ve already interacted with a couple of you but for those I haven’t interacted with I’m Val. I really love this whole idea and I’ve already gotten tremendous support and am feeling welcomed and loved by all of ya’ll so thanks for that! I was wondering if there’s any forums where survivors share things they’ve written? I write alot about what happened to me, and I’ve never shared it with anybody, but I feel like I could share in this community since its kind of anonymous.

Hello @PurpleBee. Welcome to AS.  

@Brokenballerina, I’ll send you a message.
