Well coming here was the right thing to do. Its important to talk about things, as you have been holding onto this baggage for so long, it will feel better to get things out. There are many here who would like to help you, feel free to pm any one of them. I am willing to help if I can as well.

Hey, I'm new here too! It never even crossed my mind to join any kind of online support group before and I figured it couldn't hurt! It's always good to have some people to talk to who can understand even a little bit how you're feeling, even if they are strangers lol. At least we all are dealing with the same type of things in some way or another. We're all on this site for a reason. I'm sure no one's here to judge or bring you down...instead it's the exact opposite! Even though none of us really know each other, sometimes you find help in the places you'd least expect it.

welcome ray ..because this site is anonymous no one will ever b able 2 no who u r when u r venting . please feel comfortable and find a few very trustworthy friends who may b able to help u in your plight . good luck to u and please feel proud that u have made your 1st post . warmly , starsunshine

Welcome to DS:

It was a very courageous step you took to post and you did it! That is great! DS is a great place.

You might not like some of what you hear, but you will also find that most people who are kind and very helpul. So, take what works, and leave the rest, as they say.

You have an area where you can write and send private messages and where you can get and ask for friends + the hugs. Get familiar with the site.

You can pretty much say anything here, as long as you stay in keeping the the DS rules which are posted at the bottom of the page under "about us".

Don't be embarrassed. If there is something too private you can friend someone and private message them.

Welcome
