Making friends (New here)
Hi everyone, I'm new here. This week has been okay. I hope it is okay that my traumatic was 22 years ago. I grew up in an abusive household. My mom to be exact. Probably why I don't trust many women from how she used me. Another one was my brother, (this one for a different day). I am finally making girl friends. I'm also trying to make more girl friends to hang out with, and I'm 29 years old...please let me know if this is okay to leave here.
Have a Blessed week.

I'm sorry to hear you were abused by your mother and brother. Just know that your trauma is valid regardless of how long ago it happened. Just like everyone else, you deserve to have a safe space to talk about it. Wanting to process and unload some of the burden you've carried by yourself is *so brave*.
It's good to hear that you're trying to overcome your fears and mingle with girls. I hope it has been going well so far!
Have a good week too!
