Introduction, i guess

Hey all.

I'm new, my name is James.

I'm not entirely certain what kind of place this is, I'm just going with the flow here. Times have been rough for like a few years, and I'm trying a new thing.

I'm over 30, divorced, have a daughter who doesn't live with me. Usually I enjoy a lot of things, like literature and cinema and artsy stuff like that. I don't know what constitutes a good introduction, so I'll keep it short and end it here.

I don't know how many people are around here or if anyone will even read this, I may be yelling at the wind here, but if you're reading, it's good to meet you. Hi.

James

I like your comment, “I don’t know what constitutes as a good introduction”. I think it is an excellent introduction ; )

Amazing support group. It's nice to feel cared about by strangers at first,

who become your friend because they understand the pain.

I'm glad you are here. I'm one of the long-winded responders lol :) xx

Hi James...welcome ! I live in the UK so probably a time difference...but people come on here to post how they are feeling and to get advice...so any issues tell the forum and wait...be patient...and most of the time there are some really good suggestions !

I stumbled across HU by complete accident. I can promise you that this place is stuffed full of caring, broken yet supportive likeminded people, I'll see you around.

I'd like to keep my location private, I apologize, I'm weird that way :) But I love artsy things too, I consider myself an artist of sorts, albeit not much into theatre. Pleasure to meet you and thanks!
