Hi all. I just joined and I’m not sure if I belong here or not, but I am thankful to find somewhere that I can be honest with my thoughts and feelings.

Hi Mindnitebeauty,

Welcome to AfterSilence. I am very sorry you have reason to be here...and if you took that step to be here, you are accepted. Our requirements are simply, someone hurt you and you want a safe and healing place to be. You will find much support here, as this community is understanding and kind. You are not alone.

Feel free to look around and interact with others when and where you feel most comfortable. No pressure. I am glad you found us. I wish you the very best as you move forward on this path of healing.
