Hey everybody -- New member here. Not really sure what I'm seeking, maybe some likeminded or non-judgmental people to converse with.

I moved to Australia a few years ago. Got married and had a baby, marriage has fallen apart, ended up in a women's shelter with my children for victims of DV recently for many horrendous reasons.
It's been a real slog pulling myself together and starting again from scratch alone in a foreign country.

Hoping to gain maybe a few online friends along my journey of healing.

Hi bluish,

Welcome to the forums and thank you for reaching out to us.

 

I am so sorry you have been through such an ordeal, I hope you are recovering somewhat now you are away from the situation. I imagine it has been doubly difficult due to being in a different country.

 

You have definitely landed in the right place, this is a kind and non judgemental community where I am sure you will find members you resonate with. The best suggestion I can give you is to have a look around at the topics to see what area/areas you feel comfortable with (I say this in case you are still dealing with triggers from your experiences). If you find a conversation that interests you, then reply to it or you can start your own post in one of those areas as you have done here. If you need any help, just reply to this post and I will do my best to help you.

 

Take care of yourself and your children,

indigo
