I’m new - maybe not a survivor yet :(

I’m 17, hoping to find those who can relate to a lot of my feelings, more so surrounding the abuse which took place when I was 6.

Hi @ally53907

I am glad you found our site and I hope it will help you to know you are not alone, and that many people here can relate to your feelings.

I wish you all the best on your healing path,

Hey Ally, 

I can relate. I am 18 and still dealing with the trauma of things that happened to me when i was five. It's okay, we will get through this.

-I support you and i Believe you

P.S You are here, which means you had the courage to take your power back into your own hands which makes you a SURVIVOR.
