old-pear Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hi , there, I am really grateful for this community , and very hopeful about writing here. Nice to meet you all. I am a stay at home mom living in Japan. I tried sharing with my husband, but that didn’t go great to say the least, no one else knows. Any help or opinion is greatly appreciated. Thank you and I sincerely wish all to be well. Link to post

MeBeMary Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 Hi old-pear and welcome. I am very sorry for the trauma you've endured and the struggles you may have. You are among friends, those who do understand. It can be difficult for those who have not endured what we have to really understand. I'm sorry your husband getting that what you went thru was unfair and wrong and it doesn't just end when the trauma ends. How we all wish it were that easy, right? You have found a very supportive community with many who unfortunately get it. We know it's not easy, but reaching out is a big step. One of many with us, I do hope. Feel free to look around. I wish you the very best as you navigate this tricky path we call healing. Mary We you! Link to post
old-pear Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 Thank you each and everyone for your words of support and kindness. It means a lot right now. Link to post
