Hello:)

Hi I'm new to this website/group:) I've been feeling pretty low lately, and I've been having to come to terms with a lot of my problems as I'm getting older and being thrown into the adult world and realizing how many issues I actually have lol.. and how being successful isnt too easy when you have a ton of emotional baggage that you never dealt with.... it looks like this group is pretty diverse, in age and backrounds and perspective, so hopefully I am able to learn something from this and hopefully give some support to others:) I love helping people with their problems and talking so feel free to message me or comment or something (not sure how this works lol)

this is a very diverse group, that's is one of my favourite things about us - we can all be very different and yet have so much in common. we certainly care about one another here. it matters that you are hurting and having a rough time right now, you matter. we each have been in places like that in our own lives, whether enduring traumatic times or recovering from the memories, other things, ways. you've brought yourself to a really good place and i'm glad you found here. we each found here too so we get it.

Welcome aboard, Sara.

I still haven't met any of the mythical "Normies," but I suspect even they have trouble finding their place in this crazy world we live in. It is a challenging process. Almost as challenging as staying happy and sane once you find that place.

Again, welcome. I look forward to getting to know you.

Belated hello! My hubby is a fairly "normal" but... yeah, it's a balancing act while juggling chainsaws for a lot of us, and them. Healing wishes to you and to us all!

I am new also. Welcome.
I saw a clip from Ellen show, she had a 15 yr. old cancer survivor singing.........
This is my fight song, take back my life song. Made me cry as I feel the same. I also know it will resonate with EVRYONE here. Go watch it (I saw on fb).

Yeah when I first joined i felt weird because I was joining other groups where I was the only young person there, but lately this site and this group have become more diverse, and I'm happy about that.
Feel free to message me too if you ever need somebody to talk to:)

I'm 99% sure their whoops and thumps and such are probably people up to no good tryihng to scare other folisk outta the woods without getting in trouble.Why do I say that?There's moonshiners in my DNA. And people who've lived in the forests since before white folks. If something was out...
