We're sooo glad you're here. You're certainly not alone in having triggers that frighten or upset you. It's from what I understand quite a normal response, and sometimes I think the best thing is to simply tell other people what triggers you so that they can, if possible, avoid it.

Hopefully you'll find both friends and guidance here, and we're really happy to have you. You want to learn how to live with non-abused people, and I want to learn how to live with people who have been abused...so maybe we can meet halfway. :)

Welcome!

Cai,

I am so glad you found this. I've been wanting to talk to you for ages about...everything.

Maybe your family will come around. Maybe not. But in the meantime you have a family here that loves you very much.

I understand your fears and I can tell you that with time you'll start feeling less like an "alien" and more like a human being again. Perhaps on some level we'll always feel different, but...that isn't always a negative thing.

Yeah. We're like the Bajorans or something. Nobody knows what the hell to do with us.

...I watch too much Star Trek. 0_o
