Hi

Hi, all. I've never reached out in this way before. The things that happened to me a long time ago, but within the last couple of years I have just become more and more overwhelmed. I have help, I have supportive friends, but it has just gotten really tough. I guess I just need to make contact with people who have been through this. It is just so ugly. Looking for some friendly voices in the dark.

I don't really know how to do this...from what to say to navigating. It's all new.

I wish you the best!

I know exactly what you are talking about. I have help and supportive friends as well. I think you have come to the right place to get in touch with others. A circle of friends.=)

I think I need some help just learning to navigate around.

If I have specific things that I would like to talk about, to hear what other survivors think, how do I know where to post them?

I use the internet for research all day at work...but this is new. I just keep finding the courage to come back. Thanks so much for your support.
