so hesitate

I am a new member of this forum. i almost read all posts but hesitate to reply. these thoughts always takes me away to type that "i am not perfect, i can not deal with my problem. how can i give a hope to someone else?"

Best wishes,

there is not one perfect person on this forum. nada. none.........

we all have problems, imperfections, faults and we all need support and try to give support.

your presence here might help someone and you'd never hear of it.......but it could happen........

welcome to PC.........xoxoxo pat

I might add that sometimes it's easier to see another person's situation and to offer words of encouragement to them, than it is to see our own and to encourage ourselves.

Good to have you here!

Yes, I am semi-new still and feel the same as you. I tend to not "share" as much here yet. It's hard, but I certainly do feel as though I want to chime in on other's issues. Maybe because I can tell these are good people, struggling and it hurts me tremendously to see that across the world (and these members are everywhere).
I find it easier to console others and truly feel genuine care for them when I read about their struggles. I don't do this so well for myself, but hearing what others are facing inspire me to live better and heal myself. There are some incredible stories here (and sad) and how people live on is an incredible booster for me to keep on as well.
Don't feel like you have nothing to give, you don't have to share, if you feel something to say and want to post, then go for it. It will be met with welcoming people here.
