hello I’m emma I’m 16 and I’m new here don’t  really know what to say haha, I love music even though I’m not very good at actually playing it but anyway I’ve never really searched for a place where I could talk about things, I am quite a shy person always have been and not really good at talking about stuff that bothers me with people I know in real life

    Hey Emma, welcome to the mix. I hope you like the people and are able to get the help you need here. :) I was and am quite similar in that I don't often talk about things and it can be draining sometimes, so I'm glad to see you're here.

    Hi Emma, Welcome I hope you find using this space helpful x

    The steps you take don’t need to be big, they just need to take you in the right direction.

    Welcome to the community, Emma. :) Lots of shy folks here who can relate to that (me included!).
    All behaviour is a need trying to be met.

    Hey Emma. Hope sharing here can help <3
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley
