Hello, Healing And Thriving

[jdv0113]

Hello Everyone,

I am new to this website. To date, I have been seeing a counselor through Safehouse, but sometimes I would like a place where I can chat about what I am feeling. Sometimes, I feel like it is a burden to my family and friends to talk about what happened. I am coming up on the year anniversary of the day my ex-husband forced his way into my house at gun point and raped me and feeling more anxious than usual. My heart goes out to everyone who is on this website. Only someone who has been through it can truly understand.

Hello there

I do think you are right about only understanding if you've experienced it, it's frightening how many have experienced this kind of thing I am glad that you are now safe? Though completely understand the rising anxiety you are experiencing just now

All the very best and I hope to see you around the forums
