Hi everyone!

I'm new... sooo so nervous about being here (my heart is beating so fast!) as have never shared with anyone about my abuse before. But I am really looking forward to getting to know you all!!!

Hi Beth,

Welcome!!

I'm glad you've joined us, and I hope you feel at home soon.

I can understand the anxiety of posting here. Deep breaths hun, deep breaths. I remember being anxious about posting here too at first, I got over that fast enough, it's a wonderful place to be. This is a caring and supportive community, you can be you here, and I am glad you found us and also joined us. Take your time with sharing your story etc. There's no rush and you can do so in your own pace.

Welcome!!

= if ok??

Welcome to AS. I am glad that you are though wish you didn't have any reason to be. Telling your story is really scary for most of us..especially the first time...so take your time with it. Share when you feel safe enough to. We will all be here with you until then. We all understand how frightening it can all be and how overwhelming it can feel. I hope that we can talk sometime.

Gentle hugs to you,
