Hello From The New Girl.

[root]

Hi everyone, I'm Root. It's nice to meet you all. I am a rape survivor. It happened 12 years ago, when I was 16, but I really only starting to face it now. I'm feeling very alone as I begin this journey back at the beginning. I came here to remind myself that I'm not alone, and I already feel less isolated from reading the forums, so thanks already, for just being here.
