New here, grateful to have found this space

[Shigekoi]

Hi, I'm new here and really glad to have found this community.
I recently attended (virtually) the Boston International Trauma Conference and was deeply moved by the tenderness and care people showed toward one another.
I'm hoping to find a similar sense of compassion and understanding here, and to learn from others as well.
Thank you for having me.

Welcome Shigekoi,

I'm glad you found your way here. The compassion and understanding you experienced at the conference are qualities I've found in this community as well.

I hope you feel supported, heard, and less alone. 💛

Thank you!

Welcome Shigekoi, I've found compassion and understanding here.  It's really helped me adjust while beginning to understand what it is I'm dealing with.  I hope you find comfort here as well.

Welcome Shigekoi!

Thank you so much for welcoming me! Is there any Zoom meetings I can join or correspondent with each other more easily so I can meet other fellow survivors online? I'm having trouble figuring out how this forum works.

I'm not aware of any meetings online, but I am relatively new here. I've connected with people best by starting my own recovery journal and commenting on others. I also read a lot of older posts and sometimes do my own posts in other categories. People are generally active a bit in responding, like on this thread. But that's just been my experience so far.
