  1. hi i’m looking for someone to talk to do you reckon you’d be up to chat?

  2. Adulting as a survivor hits different. Where do we find the time to find ourselves when we're busy trying to balance work and relationships? I'm a shell. I miss having any understanding of who I am.

      Sitting with you @VintageCrayon. Adulting is tough I think for anyone, but being a survivor makes it that much more difficult 😞

      I'm with you. Functioning as an adult is expected to, while being a survivor, is so difficult.

  3. I love that feeling when I find a song with lyrics that are so spot on it's scary. Guess I found a new cover photo. 
    Lyrics by Em Beihold. Photo by me.

      I think a lot of us can relate to those lyrics. And your photo is beautiful. :hug:

  4. Hello, I started on this website as Shortcake. A new, terrified member who struggled badly as so many of you do. This community of survivors helped me immensely in my journey to healing from what I'd been through. I hope those of you who are brand new find the same here as well. I stepped down as a site moderator near the end of 2016, and also away from the site for a majority of the last year and a half because I had begun struggling with issues not even related to what brought me here. However, I have been working through it all with the support of my husband and mother (
  5. You know, I JUST read what your profile pic says? LOL I am down with mermaiding. Adulting sucks.

      Absolutely! Feel free :)

  8. Hi there!! I've been wondering how you put the pic in the background on your profile. Can't seem to figure it out. I really like your pic you chose :)

      Well when you look at your profile, you will see 2 options on the upper right corner of the cover photo area (background pic). One says "Edit profile" and one says "Cover photo". Click on Cover photo and click on "upload photo". From there you can choose any photo that you have and upload it as your background/cover photo. I found mine on google when I searched "Inspirational quotes".

      Ah I understand why it doesn't work for me. Mine does not have the "Cover photo" option.

  11. Thank you for taking the time to open this thread. It is VERY important that you read this. There are 2 pinned/locked topics in this forum (Welcome forum) that ask members to read before posting. I do understand that when you're new to After Silence, you're anxious to post and get involved in the healing process, and therefore may decide to just read those important sounding threads 'later'. Here's the problem....'later' never seems to happen. The reason those threads are there in every forum, is to enlighten you as to the specific rules and guidelines for each forum. Because there ARE certa

Step two: Click on "My settings". Hovering over each option here will give you a brief description of what you can do. Step three: You will be taken to this page.
