MeBeMary Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Hi SilentBird, Welcome to AS. I am sorry you went thru a trauma, but you have found a very supportive site. I can understand your hesitation, but do suggest that you look around. If you post or not, is up to you, but you will see you are not alone. I know it's not easy to face things, I denied them for longer than you can imagine, but it just wouldn't go away. There is no pressure and maybe your comfort level will improve with time. It was courageous of you to come here, and I only wish you the best on your healing journey. Mary Link to post
SilentBird Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 Thanks Mary and I am also sorry for the trauma that brought you here. That realization that I am far from alone, is very disconcerting. I have been looking around but it's all just a little raw for me and I'm just trying to make sure I can still breathe. Link to post

You guys have made me feel comfortable. I'm just not sure when or if I want to start dealing with my healing. Just thinking about it makes me feel very vulnerable. I get that heebie-jeebie feeling.
