Sandy, in the forums, asked if anyone knew of any support groups for wives of male survivors. While that seems like it’s probably a good idea for a group, I’m not familiar with any groups with that specific agenda. I offered some suggestions for where she might begin to look for that, but if anyone else has any ideas, or knows of a group like this, feel free to drop by the forum topic and leave her a reply!
I was thinking about this the other day, in terms of what groups you belong to, what terms you use to describe yourself, etc. Mostly it came to mind because someone made reference to the fact that I didn’t seem like a typical New Yorker, even though that is where I grew up. Did growing…
Pin What I have been experimenting with, and which might interest some of you, is the new email newsletter tool that Twitter has made available, called Revue. It’s a little more hands-on than the current newsletter, so while I plan to send it out every Friday, I can’t swear to you that will always happen. On the other hand, I get to add some more stuff to this newsletter because it’s more hands-on. So I can pull in some links from other sources, drop in some text, etc. In essence, I’ll be experimenting with it, but you can expect that the goal will remain the goal I’ve always had with my blog, writing, and sharing interesting things related to surviving child abuse, and mental health issues.
You can subscribe, and take a peek at some of my recent experimental issues over at my Revue profile. I hope you’ll consider subscribing, and sharing with your friends if you find it useful!
Anyone who knows me knows that I have had the utmost respect for Sheldon Kennedy, a former NHL hockey player, for not only coming out and talking about the sexual abuse he survived at the hands of a youth hockey coach, but also helping put the coach in jail and all if the programs he…
Just finished doing upgrades of both the Movable Type installation that this blog runs on, and of the software the forums run on. The new version of Movable Type is aimed at helping with comment spam and server issues surrounding the countless comment attempts, while the PHPBB upgrade is because of a security issue. I’m…
Things got a bit screwed up here late last week, and I couldn’t post anything to the blog. Apparently it was an upgrade gone terribly wrong on the server. Anyway, things should be back to normal now. I did get the shell of a forum system setup last week. There’s a lot more I can,…
Just wondering if there are any survivors using Google Plus? I was thinking of creating a survivor circle on there and using it to share articles or other interesting things that I either don’t take the time to write up as a blog post. Mostly I want to see if it’s easier to use that…
