Sufferer Sexual Assault

[Miss Independent]

Hi I'm new here, but you might have guessed that already. Trying to escape my own mind and thought I'd do well to talk to others like me..

I've had PTSD for about five years now, lost everything. This is about recharging myself and claiming it all back again. I've been in therapy for about a year now and I'm improving, thought this forum might be another good step forward.

I'm pretty shy, but I'm friendly, so I'm always up for a conversation if someone else initiates it !

Hope to make some friends here.. Good luck, everyone :)

Hi Miss Independent,

Welcome to the forum!!! :)

I think you are right. Coming to this forum and meeting others like ourselves, is a big step forward, (at least it has been for me). I too am shy and a survivor of sexual abuse, so I know it isn't easy to reach out to others, but it gets easier. I have found a lot of understanding, compassionate support and loads of great information here. I hope you have the same type of rewarding experience as I've had!!!

Wishing you peace and healing,
LH

Thank you ! Just made my first post. I feel calmer already, just being able to tell people who understand.
