Found Website
I just found this website and made an account. I hope this website helps me in ways that it seems like it could. I hope, but I don't know. It is strange to me. It is called Daily Strength, but I don't know why it is called that, but it seems promising. It seems like I need to be on this to find the help i need in my current life to help me get through the traumas and problems of my past. Hopefully I am not wrong.

You have found a good site. I haven\'t been here long, but there is help here. Welcome
You\'re not wrong. Many people are and have been. There are many on here that are as knowledgable as professionals working in the field and are survivors themselves. There are several psycologist\'s and oth MH professionals. In terms of recovery and healing you\'ll find people all across the spectrum from those who have healed and just wish to give back to those just starting on the road to recovery. But like everything you\'re likely to get as much as your willing to put into it....many struggle in telling their story which is an essential part of the healing process...the long held secrets must come out. DS provides a safe place to do so to people who understand and provide as much support and advise as you want. You dictate the pace or whether you share at all. Some people never post but still benefit by reading others stories and realizing their not alone. The journal feature is helpful for many. You decide who can read it...from everyone, just friends you make on here or private where only you can see it. Again all survivors carry within them a multitude of emotion from confusion, sadness, fear, shame...whatever emotion that are causing the pain needs to be expressed instead of just kept in ones own head. With DS you are allowed the freedom to participate as little or as much as you want. In terms of why its called Daily Strength I dk for sure but thing it\'s because it\'s a site you can come to daily for support, encouragement or help and these things help most people feel less alone and draw strength from it.
I want to welcome you here and hope you find it helpful as I and many others have. Good luck
