Hello

[tasteslikecanadian]

My name is Meredith/TLC/Canadian. I'm 19. I was going to make a topic in Share Your Story and put it all out there. I got about a dozen words in, and realized I wasn't even close to that place yet. Well I am and I'm not. I am in that I could give the barest of outlines and be okay with it. But I feel like if I'm going to tell my story, I should be honest with myself and everyone else by not toning it down.

So I'm introducing myself here instead.

I met a few of you in chat earlier, you'll probably see me around the forums a lot. I'm a pretty chatty gal.

Hi there welcome to AS I can totally understand your hesitation to post your story. It can be a bit overwhelming to put yourself out there like that. I hope in time you will feel comfortable in doing so . If not that is okay too I hope you will find AS to be a great help along your healing journey. I look forward to seeing you around the boards. If ya need anything feel free to pm me.
