Title: new here
Post by: wayofseeing on June 20, 2017, 02:04:20 AM
Just saying hello. I'm new to OOTS...I've struggled with trauma from emotional and physical abuse for years, from multiple relationships. In the past year I came across a description of C-PTSD and it was...stunning to see how much of my experience it described.

Tough to talk about the details, though. I just wanted to say hi and thanks for being here.

Welcome, wayofseeing! I'm glad you're here.

It is tough to talk about details. It's totally your decision whether you want to talk about your background or not. Just know we're here to listen if & when - and no one will say you should just stop thinking about it, move on, forgive, or any of the other common suggestions we hear but that are so offbase.

Thanks for joining and adding your voice to ours!  :wave:
