Hello

[posie]

Hi all -

I am new here and this is my first post . . .Man, oh man, is this scary. I am overwhelmed and terrified and relieved all at the same time. I have read some of the posts and it freaks me out because it is like I am reading the thoughts in my head - I can be in a room full of people and feel completely alone but here, I already feel like I belong.

So very true! Those were my same thoughts when I first joined. Within the first couple of days of surfing the message boards, I had a good cry when I realized I wasn't alone.

Welcome to AS!

Welcome Posie!

I'm glad that you found your way here.

I'm pretty new too and I felt the same way.

I had thought that there was no one else like me until I found this website.

Now I feel more like a normal person who has been through an abnormal situation.

Good Luck with everything!
