MeBeMary Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Hi zerostars. Welcome to AfterSilence. I am very sorry for the trauma you've endured to lead you here...but here is a very supportive site. You will find that our members are understanding and kind. You are not alone. I did the same...spent decades holding all I endured in. There is a relief to having others who get it. You can share or interact with others in a way that is comfortable for you. No pressure, no judgement, just encouragement and validation when you do. It's made a real difference for me, and I think it might do the same for you. So, feel free to look around and do it at a pace you feel comfortable with. Wishing you the best on this journey we call healing. Mary Link to post
