Hello,
I am another new addition to the forum. I’m glad to be here. I have never been comfortable opening up to people or allowing people to get close to me. I withdraw even more from those close to me as I get older. It was recommended by a therapist I seek support from those who have had similar experiences to mine in order to find some human connection. I have a hard time feeling human much of the time and often feel unworthy of human connection, thus deprive myself of it. So... while I’m not quite comfortable enough yet to divulge my background, I am happy to be here and looking forward to “getting to know you.”
Samalander

Re: Hello
Hi Samalander
Welcome to the forum. Glad you found us. I also have found it hard to be around other people and even harder to develop trust in others. This place has helped me meet others, share common experiences and make friends. It’s a place where you can feel safe. Folks here are compassionate and understanding. Again, welcome.

Re: Hello
Hi and welcome, Salamander. I'm sorry for the reasons, but glad you are here. It's ok for you to share as much or as little as you are comfortable with here, you get to choose. And you'll get support either way.
With care,
Serenity
