BuffaloCO Registered: 07/14/12 Posts: 174 Loc: USA	Hi Sebastien, I'm glad you found us. I hope you find comfort and healing here. I haven't told my family about the predators yet either so I understand how that is a challenge, but you'll find support here. There are a lot of good people here and resources too. Take your time and open up when you feel comfortable. Welcome to the site brother! _________________________ Lao Tzu said: "When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be."

traveler Registered: 02/07/06 Posts: 2440 Loc: overseas	Welcome, Sebastien. i am in the same time zone as you. good to have company on this side of the world! though sorry for the circumstances that caused you to seek us out. open up at your own pace and reveal as much or as little as you are ready for. keep me in mind if you need someone who is awake at the same time as you. and feel free to PM if you like.
