Hello Everyone

[loretta]

For a week now i have been reading your post's. They feel me with pride knowing there is such a group of loving women.(guy's too) I got your web address from a soap opera site. A young lady that had been abused for years posted it. I thought i would check it out but when i started reading them i began to cry. I was thinking that was not their fault, they did not cause it. Then it hit me, it was not my fault either!! I have spent my life trying to forget what happened. I have always blamed myself. I have told noone about it. I can hardly think of it now. I just wanted to say hi...loretta

Welcome Loretta

So glad you found us. It was hard for all of us to talk, in the beginning. I did not talk for 35 years, but it was always with me messing with my life, until finally I had to talk. Take your time, go at your own pace, don't give up, and don't give in. It was not your fault, and healing is a process. We are here for each other.
