Hi, I'm Winter. :wave:
I actually joined this forum a couple of years ago, but I made one post then didn't stick around for whatever reason. Now I'm looking for support again and have re-found you.
I have CPTSD from both my childhood (witnessing domestic violence) and adulthood (emotional abuse). I've fallen into a pattern of keeping people at a distance because I'm so scared of getting hurt again. I'm trying to get un-stuck because I do want to have people in my life.
Looking forward to getting to know you all.
Hi wintersnow,
Welcome back. I hope you find what you're looking for here :heythere:
Sending you support,
dolly
Welcome back. :wave:
Hi Winter, welcome back :heythere:
The fact that you're here - saying you want connection even while feeling scared - that's already big.
You don't have to rush getting unstuck. You can take this one small, safe interaction at a time. This can simply be a place to practice being a little less alone. 💛
