Hi everyone,
I decided to start a new thread. I'm sorry about deleting the two I had. Too much info about me. I felt I needed to say sorry to everyone that had written. I have had stalkers and there was too much personal information about me....
I was...being scared

Hey Guest,
Thanks for your sincerity. Rest assured, I and the others above understand that you did what was right for you. This forum is a supportive place where we don't judge 🙂
Having had stalkers before has clearly had a deep emotional impact on you. If you don't mind me asking, have you talked to someone in your life about this, or to a mental health professional/GP?
As your profile pic is not of yourself, this is already a smart precaution which helps with anonymity. I've been on these forums for nearly 3 years, and I don't mention names, suburbs/cities, or include a photo of myself. Aside from that, I talk about most aspects of my life. Since this is a mental health forum that is designed to be both safe and supportive, there are friendly community moderators who ensure that the conversations remain constructive.
Now that you're starting fresh with this thread, you can write what you feel comfortable sharing. There is no pressure to share things you don't want to 🙂
Best wishes,
Zeal

Hi again,
I' m back...
Thanks for all the replies.
For me it's very important someone in particular doesn't know where I am.
It' s an irrational fear but also a valid one that ppl I have spoken about on the forums could read my stuff about them. I was so scared thinking about it all. I was also so scared thinking about men I've known in the past finding me. Ive decided not to include too much personal info about me or those from the past now just incase they decide to go on here ( highly unlikely). But I want to stay safe.
I have ppl I can talk to for support, in reference to professionals. And you guys.
It's good reading around the forums again and catching up.
