Hi

[liz24]

Hi there,

I found this site a couple days ago and I think it's great! I just turned 25 and I am trying to sort through some past experiences. I have really amazing friends and family who support me, but sometimes it is just nice to know people understand because they have been there and not just because they love you. I'm really hoping that I can find support and provide support for others here. Thanks!

Hey Liz,

It sounds like to me you've got some amazing friends and family, who love you very much, but I can totally relate to, as I am sure many people here can, that fact you're seeking to meet people who've experienced similar things to you, that's totally understandable, and I think the reason we're all here, to get that validation and understanding, and please rest assure, you'll get that here, this place is so supportive and amazing
