I love the conversations it opens up. I love the people I’ve met and chat with via it. Most of all, as hard as it is right now, I do also love that it’s finally helped me get to the stage where I CAN discuss these things.

@KT_Robson

None of my friends have experiences similar to mine…. You guys do, it’s helpful to talk, even a long time after the fact because it’s not something I talk about or ever have. I find it cathartic. Thankyou xxx

@CharlotteOS1

Being a survivor can be a lonely place. Being a single parent can be a lonely place. Being able to speak to other survivors in real time without leaving the house is AMAZING!! You’ve built a fab little community and more tweeples join all the time.

@YouthAdvocate

Being part of this community has helped me open up, work through my thoughts and receive support when I have needed it. It helps massively to know you aren’t the only one. It also allows me to educate others in the ‘outside’ world. Invaluable xx
