Hi, I know how it feels when you don't want to burden others with your problems, but you deserve help and it helps us all to recover when we listen and give advice or just a word to let each other know we are not alone. There will be times when you need more than you can give, but that is o.k. If you weren't reaching out for help, or if you stop reaching out for help, we'll all feel worse. You don't have to apologize for reaching out. As you recover from the horror you have been put through, you will grow stronger. You will have times when you can reach behind to help another up, and times when you must reach up yourself for a hand. Together, we can all survive and thrive. I'm glad you are here.

Be well,
