Hi All

[morethanwords]

Well as you've probably gathered I'm new, and I just wanted to say hello to you all

I'm having a hard time accepting that I have a right to be here at the moment, as I just keep feeling like I'm making a big fuss over nothing. It's so comforting to know that there are people here who have been through similar things, and who understand, although it is awful for us all. Because people who haven't been through abuse themselves don't truly understands what it does to you, and I've never been able to speak to someone who "gets it" before...

Anyway, I've gone on too long. Hi

[Kaylee]

and welcome to AS.

morethanwords,

I already welcomed you in your first posting, but thought it wouldn't hurt to welcome you again. You can never feel too welcomed. You have every right to be here. If you are struggling with it, than you should be here. Everybody has their own stories. Nobody's pain is more important than someone else's regardless of the type or amount of abuse they suffered. I really hope that you will be feeling at home shortly. Take care.
