Hi quite one, welcome to the forum.

I am new here too.

It's a little scary. Being new. Does anyone have any advice to share with someone very new to this site and just starting to learn about complex ptsd? It feels a little overwhelming.

Welcome to the forum. maybe just read around a bit and the rest will follow. That's what I did.

Kristen, also welcome. Yes... the best thing you can do is just start chatting away.... just be honest with yourself and honest with others, and you will be just fine. Don't try and fit in, just be yourself and you will fit were you fit... that is the very idea of this forum. Not one big happy family as such, instead a community that respects one another and their opinions. Within any community are those who bond to others they find similarities in personality with. Jump in is my advice and get your feet wet... the sooner any anxiety removes from you about talking here.

Hi quite one and kristen!

Looks like you're both doing well so far! Just do it again and ask a question about PTSD this time.

Welcome to the forum!

Quite One,
Hello and welcome just jump in and write nobody can see you or hurt you or even laugh at you. We all have pain from our past and writing helps get it out and learn to deal with it.
