Hello... welcome. Sorry it is this way that we all meet, but I think you will find as so many of us have, that this is a very supportive and open place. I am a twenty-two year old college student, so we are in same boat there! Looking forward to getting to know you... Lilea

Hi :-) I'm 21 too! Not in college though LOL!! You should be proud of yourself for working through your issues. I know it takes time and is frustrating. It took me years to finally get there with my therapist. Hope to be talking to you in the future :-)

Hi Sara
Just wanted to add my welcome to the others. That sick to the stomach feeling makes things difficult, but it does get better, slowly, but surely.
