You're taking a very important step right now. Venting to others, even others you can't "see", can be liberating when you've been keeping it all inside. Please keep on posting your thoughts and feelings and I hope it helps you lessen your burden.

huge first step. i think those of us who find this site., are stronger than we want to admit. we realize we have an issue we want to deal with and we have done some hard work to find like minded people.

a bit ever day. you can make it private or public or only your friends. get it out of your head and onto a medium. i find the online helpful cause there is no physical tie to my house so no one can see what is going on if i am not logged in.

You did good on coming here. You do need some help that we just can't give you though. I hope you do get it.

Good for you for taking that first step. This is a great place to get support and vent and it's not so intimidating as telling a friend or someone in person.

I just joined last month but the love i feel from everyone is amazing,yes,sometimes it can get a little down but the bottom line is the love is here to support each other unconditionally. Kinda like therapy. You are welcome here.
