Hi @luna288
I just wanted to reach out to welcome you to the forums - it’s great to have you here 💜
I’m so sorry to hear that some of the people who you tried to befriend abused, betrayed and harassed you and I can’t even begin to imagine the impact that this has had on you and your ability to trust people and reach out again 💜
Although I completed high school a long time ago now, I can relate to so many of your experiences 💜 Perhaps similar to you, I also enjoyed the structure and the sense of purpose and routine that school provided and I found it comforting to know how I would be spending my days and who I would be spending them with 💜
Therefore for me, leaving school was a really challenging transition as all of a sudden there was a gaping hole in my life which I found incredibly difficult to fill.
As such, I can really appreciate how you miss having somewhere to be and a friendly face to greet you and I just ever so gently wondered how you’re managing such a huge change in your life?
Also, just while I remember, one of the things that really helped me when I was new to the forums and still finding my way around, was that if you would like to chat with another forum member, or reply to one of their posts, place @ in front of their username just like I did at the start of my post to you i.e. @luna288 that way, they will receive a message that you have contacted them 😊
I really hope that you’ll continue to reach out here and I look forward to being able to talk with you again 💜
Take kind and gentle care of yourself,
ShiningStar 💜
