Hi melissagrace,

Welcome to the forum. Sounds like you are not new around here ... new name though?

Hope you are having a good day too.

Hi, Shiraz, and thanks for the welcome... I am new to this forum; I am sorry for any confusion.
Unfortunately I am not new to PTSD or forums like this one... Was a member for some time of a site that I can't find any more but enjoyed using... I've registered for this site using the same name in the hopes that I'll find others who used the other site too...
It is so difficult to find support, and understanding, and friends... I just wanted to reach out to anyone who might remember me from before.
Thanks so much for saying hi, and I hope you're having a good day. (as a friend used to say, I hope you're having a "good enough" day... I always liked that, since a "good" day is sometimes hard to achieve :rolleyes:)
best, melissagrace

I understand about the 'good enough day' .... nice way to put it!

I hope those old friends are around .... you are not the first to mention a PTSD site which is no longer around ... hmmm, I wonder what happened to it?

Anyway, welcome again and I'm sure you'll be making new friends really quickly!

Many thanks, Shiraz...

Sometimes just reading others' stories and reaching out to them has an incredibly healing effect...:think:

Take care, and hope to talk soon!

best, melissagrace

Hi and welcome! I'm new here myself. Everyone seems so eager to help each other. And they make you feel right at home. I've been reading here for a couple of weeks now, and have gotten so much valuable information from this site. Hope you enjoy it and find it very useful also.

Wow... I am moved to tears by the cheerful responses here... Thanks to you all!!

So grateful to have found this forum; seems I have been missing the contact with others for far too long...

Certainly this long hard trail we follow is easier when the journey is shared.

Thanks for saying hi, everybody!

best,
