Sufferer New To This

[Fiadh]

hi everyone, I've been getting a lot of advice from this forum as a visitor- so thought might as well join and see how this forum stuff works! I made a promise to myself last year that 2016 would be the year I concentrate on myself having fallen apart, pick up the pieces. My avatar is a puzzle because that's how I've genuinely felt, unsure of my own mind and body and had been trying to slot/jam it all back together. Through EMDR I think I'm realising that maybe I'm a different kind of puzzle now- need to relearn how to react to things. It's been a difficult and I've got a long way to go! Hope to continue to learn from you all that I'm not alone in my struggles

Here we all suffer a lot but I think this place is amazing, it is my most important safe place right now on my way to recovery.
I hope it will work for you as well.
Just take your time and go at your pace.
We are here for each other, be aware of that.

Welcome to the forum, sorry you need to be here as it means you too are suffering but glad you found us. I hope you find this place as helpful and supportive as I have on your road to recovery.

There are so many caring people here with great vast knowledge, pretty much any question / problem you may have someone has dealt with and can help you out or if not can at least be a great support for you while you deal with it. People here are kind and have dealt with the same kind of demons, so are very non judgmental and supportive and that is a great thing. Welcome again. Raven

Thank you all for your welcomes. It's nice to hear from people who have experienced similar symptoms- reassuring that it might get better and that I'm not alone
