ive found myself in a situation where i barely recognise myself
starting to wonder if i really have had a tough set of circumstances, or im just an a******e in complete denial....

Sorry to hear you got bad feedback. That's the tricky think about online help groups. I've had pretty awful feedback from here/facebook groups as well. I think its because its easier for people to judge/hide behind their words when they have a screen to protect them. I once had a guy tell me that the man who broke my heart left me because he wasn't attracted to me anymore. Ouch. But anyway, you're not alone, and we're here to support you! :)

Hi, Bella. You are brave for coming back even after those bad experiences here. I’m glad you didn’t give up. Welcome to the group. We are here to share one another’s burdens and help lift one another up when we are down. We may not do that perfectly, but I appreciate the love and encouragement that comes through these posts. I hope you find some relief from your grief and hope here.
