Thank you - I am already feeling a little less isolated - and thanks for the GET A HUG link - it's so true and I have tears in my eyes- It appears it is true what I have read , on this site, that people really can "get it" and me !

Hello again strugglelife,

Yes, we share daily struggles and successes.

We will listen in our own way and with our own experiences. That may mean that someone might say something that might offend or hurt you. Please try to read the intent and not the context at times.

We are all at different levels and places in our recovery, so some may not be able to tell you something in a non-abrasive way. i am not trying to scare you or anything like that, just hope your experiences here are all good, but sometimes it doesn't happen.

Take care man.

peace

paul

Welcome Strugglelife!

You are among friends who have had experiences and feelings similar to your own. You'll find that as you read posts that other men have put up here. We come from all over, all walks of life, all ages. Gay, straight, and all shades in between. But we all share this common bond of survival from childhood sexual abuse.

I hope you are able to use this site as a catalyst for healing. We're always here for you and we've got your back.

Jude
