Hi!
I'm looking to develop a support system after being in isolation in a toxic relationship with my son's father. I left over 8 months ago and am living with my parents; however, I do not have support. I'm hoping this community, as well as, seeking in person support will help me heal. I've done what I'm able to do alone. I'm at the point where I need connection to others to heal.
It's been difficult trying to even figure out my situation or who to reach out to for support. It was like I was brainwashed against reaching out for help or even expressing my feelings. I hope this community can help me get out of isolation.
Thank you!!
Hi, welcome Seeking to Survive :heythere:
I'm really glad you found your way here. What you describe - i.e. leaving a toxic situation and realizing you can't heal in isolation anymore - makes a lot of sense, and you're not alone in that.
Reaching out after being cut off or "trained" not to ask for help can be incredibly hard. I hope this community can be one place where you feel less alone while you build the support you deserve, at your own pace. Sending you support.
