Community Info

about this community
We are all survivors . . . of childhood abuse, domestic violence, physical injury or traumatic experiences. Because we are here for self-help and mutual support, our intent is to provide a safe space for asking questions, sharing advice and resources, telling our stories, and being heard.

parental controls! Our community deals with painful and sensitive subject matter. For that reason, parental guidance may be appropriate. Our intent is to discuss our experiences honestly and without sensationalism.
The Abuse Survivors area is not an area for children currently being abused. If you are a child still being abused we suggest that you call the National Child Abuse Hot line at 1-800-422-4453 or contact any local crisis office by calling information or checking in your local phone book.
