In good times and bad, we all need a place to feel less
alone. I have spent a lot of time searching for that in my
life, never finding exactly what I was needing. I finally
decided that, rather than wait for it to somehow magically
appear, I'd create it for myself. So, I selfishly decided
to put together this site for myself, hoping that it might
help others, but knowing that it would definitely help me. I
need what it provides just as much as anyone who might visit.
It's a place to be reassured that what you are feeling is ok.
You're not alone. You are not crazy. You may be struggling and
carrying a burden that sometimes feels too heavy to handle. But as
horrible as it may feel, it's ok to admit. You don't always have to
be strong. You can let yourself feel the pain. You can accept help
when you need it and fight those tough days with everything you've
got. It's not an easy road ahead but what got you to this point
wasn't exactly easy either. Let's face it, getting to know yourself
better is really hard but the fact is, you will never find
anything that's more worthwhile.
Everything on this site is potentially offensive and/or triggering to someone. Since I can't possibly predict the sensitivities of everyone that might view things here, I have included whatever I wanted to and will encourage all visitors to consider carefully whether or not they wish to proceed.
This site has been seriously neglected as my life as become increasingly busy and complicated. I'm doing my best to remedy that and appreciate all the supportive emails I've gotten from visitors. Please continue to check back because there is still a lot more to be done here!
I strongly advise anyone under the age of 18 to go directly to my Just for Teens page. It's there for a reason and may provide you with the help you need without having to navigate this site, which is aimed at adult survivors

take her hand
she will lead you through the fire
give you back hope
and hope that you won't take too much
respecting what is left
she cradled us
she held us in her arms
unselfish in her suffering she could not understand
that no one seemed to have the time
to cherish what was given
