Hello

[Mothman]

Hi, I'm Mothman. I came here looking for a safe place to talk to talk to other surviors, share our stories and support each other. I feel like community and peer support are very important to healing, it helps feel less alone even if I'm sorry we're all in a position to be here. 

Thanks for having me
