Joining again

[123456]

Hello everyone,

    I originally joined After Silence in 2008, and I realized that I need support in my life. Badly. I left my ex-boyfriend last year, entered a domestic violence shelter, and currently dealing with an ongoing criminal case for rape and domestic violence. Last year in August, I completed a rape exam. I don't know if this will help, but I am supposed to have another police interview coming up end of this month. Sometimes it helps being around people who understand what it feels like.

Hi 123456,

Welcome back to AS. I am very sorry it is under difficult circumstances, but I am glad you remember how supportive this site is. It has likely grown over the years, but it is a great place to find support and understanding. I find you very brave for leaving the DV relationship you were in and speaking out about it. I do hope he gets what he deserves.   I do wish you the very best in your continuing journey of healing.

Mary

Hi and Welcome Back @123456,

sorry to be welcoming you back in such a time as now, but I am glad that you remembered how safe and supportive this site is.  As others have stated I am also sure that this site has grown and changed some since you were here before.  If you need any help please feel free to ask for it.  

I wanted to also say that I am proud of you for getting out of a DV relationship, I know how hard that is and it takes a lot.  Good Job. I know things cant be easy right now but we are always here at AS even if its not in person.

I'm so sorry for your suffering.  It was brave of you to take these brave steps in your life (leaving your ex-boyfriend and reaching out to others for help).

I wish you blessings and healing,
