Hi everyone,

A friend recommended this site as a place to begin healing.  I look forward to sharing eventually and becoming part of a community that understands and knows what I am going through.  Most of all, I look forward to not feeling alone anymore.

Thank you!  Just hearing that I'm never alone in this makes all the difference!  I'm ready to let the healing begin -- it is so long overdue.

Hello curandoagora, how are you? I hope you are okay. Welcome to this group. You are not alone. Take care.

Thank you so much for asking.  I feel very lucky to have been referred to this site.  It really is amazing how much it means to have messages like yours.  I am doing okay... really just trying to process things.  I have repressed the experience for so long that now it is just flooding back into my mind and I can't seem to shut it off, I'm not even sure what triggered it.  I want to be a "survivor," not a victim, so I will keep working and use the resources on this site.  It's nice to know there are others out there that understand.  It really means so much!

Hello, and Welcome to AS! You have a good friend to have sent you our way. This is a very safe supportive place, while we have all been through something we are also all at different places in the healing process don’t get discouraged if someone seems to be light years ahead of you, we are all in this together. Glad to have met you and looking forward to watching you grow and heal.
