Welcome to AS. I am so sorry for the trauma you've experienced.  I'm also sorry that you are struggling with anxiety and depression I know how difficult that is.  You will find that everyone here is friendly, supportive and there is no judgement at all. Your not alone here and many can relate.  Take your time to look around and best wishes on your healing journey

Hi purples,

Welcome to AS. I am very sorry for the trauma that you have experienced, but you have found a very supportive site. The members here are kind and understanding. Many of us have similar struggles with anxiety and depression, so know that you are not alone. I noticed your self-identifying preference. Altho the site is only equipped with the male/female gender options at this time, we do have an option that may help you, if you decide to use it. I have attached our FAQ page that gives instructions. Beyond that, I do wish you well on your healing journey.

Mary
