Hello, New Here

[TheViolin]

This is the first time I've visited this type of forum. I've decided that it's time for me to deal with my past abuse in my childhood and I discovered this board completely by accident.

I won't share too much about me that could give away who I am such as looks, age or location but I will say that I am in my 20's, am female and live in the USA.

I am very happy to have found this board. I hope that this type of environment will help me to finally talk about my past and feel safe doing so.

I have had an incredible amount of abuse in my life including mental, physical and sexual.

I am missing the first 7 years of my life and I am only now beginning to find some of the pieces. I was sexually abused as a child. I know this more on intinct then memory but I do know I was beaten and mentally abused and neglected.

I won't go too deep into it right here, but I am happy that I am here.

Peace,

Violin
