Title: Finally hello
Post by: Alder on February 28, 2021, 07:09:50 PM
Hello,

Been lurking for a while and decided to introduce myself. I'm a survivor of child sexual abuse and other forms of family violence. I've been looking more at the ways CPTSD intersects with my life lately. I've been needing community more since the shutdown started. And some relationships are showing me that my stuff needs attention.

I visit a few boards like this, hardly ever post, but it helps to know others like me are out there.

Anyway, hi. Thanks for being here.

Alder

Greetings, Alden  :wave:

Cptsd can be a lonely slog, so it's good to know you've at least found this forum. It's a place which doesn't promise instant fixes, but does provide leads to finding other ways forward, one more step away from the past and towards a better future.
