sometimes silence speaks louder than words.
you know what i think about silence.
it is the ally of the predator.
that makes it my enemy.
you have been going through some serious trauma lately, as have i, and that is bound to trigger. the pain and damage from isolation and ostracism is a medical fact.

i am experiencing the same emotions of rejection that you are.
i try to remember that the people here can only do so much for me.
many men, if not most of them, are still suffering in silence.
some have not even had the courage to sign up with ms.org,
so this is being read by nonmembers as well,
but they all come here to seek comfort and support.
we can encourage, but not expect, other survivors to speak out.
this, too, is something i struggle with.
i come here to give support, like you, and sometimes i get it back. sometimes my posts go unanswered. sometimes i feel ignored. when i feel neglected here, it triggers, and i leave for a while. i hope this note from me will keep you from doing that.
your words, our words, can help others heal and even prevent CSA. this forum has a noble cause beyond our own needs.
i wish you a good day, and much more... a good life.
my thoughts are with you, now, in your time of need. i feel your pain as my own, for we are in the same circumstances.
please accept my condolences. i can't get anyone to talk about the recent deaths in my family either. silence strikes again. without going into details, the three deaths in our family were tragic and scandalous.
