    • Thanks so much. I deal with it also, both emotional and sexual abuse (PTSD). I’m kind of on hiatus from my blog at the moment. Do you have a blog? Would love to connect with another survivor. Deb 🙂

      • I do not have a blog. I have PTSD from witnessing my son’s suicide. Have many online support groups but no blog, except my own private blog of course.

        • You could take a peek at mine if you wish, may help a bit: http://cherished79.com So very sorry to hear about your tragic son’s death. My blog centers around mostly mental illness, but I also wanted to connect with people struggling with chronic pain (I have chronic migraines) and other invisible illnesses. Just contact me with any questions. Take care, hugs, Deb
