Am New And Very Nervous.

[aliejane]

I only discovered this site yesterday and am very nervous about posting anything in case i get it wrong. I am struggling to cope with all of the memories that are in my head and i havent slept all week as i am scared of the nightmares that come. I really hope that i will find some people that understand how i feel and that we can help each other as i am very lonely.

I don't have anyone to talk to as i haven't told anyone what i went through as a child. Hopefully that will change soon. Aliejane.xx

I hope you find comfort here. I only discovered the sight over the past weekend. I have found many people who can understand me. It was only 6 months ago that I told my parents what happened to me as a child, and 9 months ago that I told somebody for the first time. I hope you find comfort and are able to tell your story when ready. :hug: :hug: :hug: (if ok)

Welcome, it's scary at first, wondering what everyone will think, what will they say? I've only been here a little while, and have met very supportive, and caring people. No matter what your situation, what you've been through you are not alone. I never believed it before I found this site. I felt isolated and alone.

Hi Aliejane

My name is Cathy, I am a member of the Newbie Support Team Set up to help those new to the board settle in. If you have any problems or questions feel free to message me.

I am sorry for what happened you but happy o see you found us. Nightmares can be hard to deal with, especially when you have no one to talk to about them, have you considered going to a counselor?

Look forward to seeing you around the board!

Cathy

I think most of what I've wanted to say has been said. I joined recently, still a little nervous but the people here are really good people. They listen, they support, and you can tell that they want to help. We're all here for you.
