Hello :)

[butterflyinreverse]

Hey everyone. My name is Nicki. I work at the local library and happened to stumble on this site during one of my breaks. I was abused by my father during a period of several months when I was 7. I actually have an online diary and have several friends on it who have been through similar experiences and we help support each other, but the idea of a message board specifically dedicated to that sounds beautiful.

I guess since this is the introductory area, I will introduce myself a bit! I'm 23 years old and have been married for 2 years. I have a 20 month old son named Dominick, and we are currently trying to conceive number 2 with the help of Clomid. (but that's a whole other story, LOL!) I was a nurse for a short period of time, then I went back to college and was an English major with a concentration in Creative Writing and a minor in Women's Studies. Now I am a mostly SAHM to my son and I work parttime (12 hours) at the library. That's about it

I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Hi Nicki,

I'm glad you've joined After Silence. I'm sorry for what you've endured, and hope you find AS to be a gentle, supportive environment. Your web diary sounds intriguing, and I commend you on reaching out to other survivors.

I wish you the best in having a second child! I bet Dominick is adorable. If you have any questions, please feel free to message me. I look forward to getting to know you.
