Sharing is a HUGE step. I was so beyond scared too. I have all these horrible thoughts about myself and I was SURE everyone would think so, too, once they heard my story. However, I have shared bits and pieces here and received only comforting words and advice, and I recently shared with T, and the same thing. And it has made such a difference. Although I can't really talk about it still, the fact that I'm not holding onto on my own is very helpful. I really hope you are able to do the same when you are ready. And I am sorry you had to go through some crappy stuff as a kid. Not fair
Were here if you want to share.
