How would one get a new forum topic started? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

***nandm*** · 09-14-2007, 10:13 PM

A new discussion thread has come up under anxiety, regarding survivors of sexual abuse. Although in some ways it fits there since many times it creates PTSD which anxiety is a symptom of but I am wondering if there is anyway we could start a forum topic for those recovering from sexual abuse. It is just a thought. Thanks

We've decided against a forum dedicated to sexual abuse recovery because it can be a huge trigger to those who are not ready to deal with it yet. That may make recovery from addiction harder, which is the primary purpose of the forums here.

The forum we suggest for sexual abuse recovery is Pandora's Aquarium.
