Title: Greetings from New OOTS Member
Post by: whole_enchilada on November 03, 2016, 10:02:33 PM
Hello, fellow survivors.  Found my way to this site and it has already helped me a lot.  I'm fortunate in that I am not in an abusive situation now.  I am dealing with C-PTSD rooted in childhood experiences with my family of origin, and in a romantic relationship that I ended in July after 10 years.  Feeling a bit raw and wobbly, but also hopeful -- like I'm finally ready to go back and face what happened.  I hope to find some freedom in that and to help others find theirs.

Done!  :thumbup: Thanks for the tip.  I was wondering about that myself.
