Please Introduce Yourself Here / Saying what's up

Hey thank you all for creating and contributing to this site. I've been using some other areas of the site as resources for about a month and today am speaking up. Knowing that there is a community of people dedicated to healing is game changing!

I don't know what to say even though I felt today like I don't want to be silent anymore. I share the diagnosis of CPTSD as well as a long fam. history of mental illness. Noticing my numbness and tendency to isolate...already I'm debating erasing this entry! (haha! I gotta laugh at my patterns sometimes)

I'm currently burying and repressing my emotions and it does not feel good! Hoping to learn more effective ways of being here. Signing up for therapy too, nervous to try trusting someone in that role, but wanting to take care of myself  and get connected. any tips for taking calculated risks/getting help when one's intuition and panic responses are all jumbled?

Also, I really want to help too! Hope to become a better listener, friend and ally.

Thanks for existing, lots of good heart going out to you all.
