Please excuse me if I sound retarded in my "introduction."
As you obviously can tell, I'm new here. I'm glad that I've stumbled onto this site. Just in the last few days I've been able to lift a burden off my shoulders. I finally told my mother about how a few years ago I was raped on my job by a co worker. Whew, even just writing that has me shaking. After years of keeping my feelings in, just admitting to it out loud feels empowering. I finally feel like the inside of me is starting to become alive again.
Anyway, just wanted to say hello and I look forward to talking to you all!
