Hi! My name is shield.ugly I joined last weekend. I found out about this forum on google. I googled "online support groups for sexually violated persons"

Thank you for making this forum. Thank you for being a part of my healing process.

I hope everyone would recover from the scars that were inflicted on them.

Bless you all.

Thanks a lot everyone. It took me a decade before I could reach this forum as I was in denial for a long time. But, not anymore. Thank you for the sincere comments.
