Hey guys, Rik here, just joined this group to try & help & be a shoulder, I've been to hell & back but I'm now all good, I want to help anyone I can know matter what age or gender, I'm a gay guy that has been fighting this for years, I'm at peace now with myself & who I am, just want to help anyone going through the same thing

hi Riksta, welcome to the site and it's always great to get newcomers to the forum.

We know what to 'hell and back' means because we have been there and come out of it a different person, a stronger person who has learnt so much along the way.

So pleased you are at peace, that's what we want to hear.

Your involvement on the site will be great and pleased that you will be able to help other people in different sections on the site. Geoff.
