Title: Hi. New here.
Post by: Shannon on June 06, 2017, 04:09:59 AM
I am new to being in a forum, or talking to people about this kind of thing for that matter.  I have been dealing with what I now know is CPTSD for as long as I can remember. Writing has always been an outlet for me. I recently started a journal, but I thought this might be more helpful since there is someone else there, and I am tired of feeling alone.

Welcome, I don't think you will feel so alone here.  I also don't remember life before CPTSD.

Welcome, Shannon. I'm another who doesn't know about life pre-CPTSD. I've also done tons of writing, and as you say it's nice to get feedback here.

Hi Shannon  :heythere:

I don't really remember life before trauma either, you're not alone, for sure.
It's good that you're journaling, I should really give that another go. Now that I have a new paper shredder  :whistling:

A warm welcome to OOTS Shannon, you are definitely in good company here.  Unfortunately there are lots of us trying to recover from Complex PTSD, but it is good we can come together here and push out of the self-isolation this disorder seems to foster.
