Hello

[HopeDestiny1]

Hi, I found your site from the site dancinginthedarkness. my nick is Hopedestiny, my real first name is Susan, but I answer to Susan and Hope.

I wasn't sure what I should do, and I found your site, for which I am greatful not to feel alone. So I would just like to thank those who created this site, and to those who help anyway they can. So that people who can't or don't want to talk about it face to face, have the chance to talk about their stories in private. I am also glad for the safety the board provides. Thank you for that.

Hopefully I can get to a point to get started. Thank you again.

Slowly. But thank you, and thank you all for the welcome.

I haven't quite gotten to the point of tell my story but I am getting the nerve up, if that makes sense.

Thank you again everyone, I appreciate the welcome. When I joined I thought I was ready to just blurt if you will out my story, but then that moment hits when your mind and hands (typing) says wait a minute, maybe not yet. Still trying to get the lay of the land if you will while gathering courage to tell my story.
