Better Late Than Never

[sophie73]

Hello everyone,

I registered to this website on Sept 30/07, and then couldn't post. It didn't feel right. I wanted to find a support forum, but then didn't feel right about using it. Over the past months, I have thought about it, but now feel it is the right time.

I am in my thirties. I love music and I love to read. I have recently started reading science fiction and fantasy. I find it difficult sometimes to find good authors. I love the kind that reflect the real world. Watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer got me started in that direction.

I have a very full life and find it difficult to find time to focus on me. I work in a giving profession and I have a family that needs my constant care. Maybe this forum will help me to take a little bit of time for some healing. We'll see...

Hi Sophie,

Welcome!!

I hope you feel at home soon.

It's never too late to introduce yourself here, hun, there's no rush. It's a good thing to listen to how you feel and then act accordingly. I'm glad you're feeling that it's time now. This is a very caring and supportive community, I'm sure you'll find loads here you can relate to, and hope you can find the time for you which you need here too. Having a family, work and dealing with trauma(s) is quite a handful. Take all the time you need to look around and get to know us. I'm sorry for all you went through, but am also glad you're here. We're here for you, hun!

Feel free to ask questions if you have any, ok?

= if ok??

Holly

hi there,

i just joined, too. i don't think i will post for awhile. it helps to read and be supportive and connect that way. you are brave!

it is so hard sometimes to find good authors. you are lucky you have a full life!

[sophie73]

It is great to have so many show support. (It is also good to know there are other Buffy fans out there!)

I look forward to sharing. I will read for a little bit, and then maybe share my own story. I've noticed recently that I've been feeling kind of down. I don't know if I'm just tired or if something else is bugging me. I think that sometimes that is the hardest part: not knowing if I am having a regular bad day like anyone else, or if there is something bigger behind it.

Anyway, I am glad I finally posted. It is nice to "meet" you all.

Hi Sophie,

I'm new too to the site and you did a great thing finding some time to focus on yourself. It's important for all people to do this and something we like to teach our children to to do.

Fixing me for my family is why I'm here.

Good luck with your journey!
