I Am A Survivor2

[Magnoliacrush]

I am thirty-five years old and have survived childhood s. abuse, emotional abuse, bulimia and major depression, along with suicide attempts. God has been so merciful to me. I have been married for 14 years and have two children who have disabilities (autism). I am in my third year of teaching Special Education to Middle School students.

I am very lonely and have a difficult time finding friends. I have had two friends abandon me in the last two years. My heart is so sad.

Hi Magnoila Crush,

My name is Mandy and I am apart of the Newbie Support Team here at After Silence. If you have any questions please feel free to send me a personal message.

I am so sorry for what you have been through. I know how hard it is. You've taken a big step by coming here. You'll meet a lot of people here, and we do hope to get to know you. I know this path isn't easy, but this site has changed my life. It can be very hard when our friends abandon us, hang in there. Talk to us. We're all here for you. You can take as much or as little time you need:) We'll work at your pace=)

Pinkyponk,

I am afraid I have come to the conclusion I can not trust anyone anymore. It is hard to have friends when you can't trust anyone. Why does life hurt so much? I am thankful for your friendliness and your kindness, however--MagnoliaC

Magnolia,

It is hard to trust people and I had the same issues however I did find that this board was an easy place to make friends for me anyway and easier to trust them as your not really giving anything away because at the end of the day you may never meet them in real life. Personally I found it easier that way, however everyone is different.

I hope you find some peace here and support.

Just take things at your on pace.
