Dose of Happy: New Friends

A few weeks ago my boyfriend introduced me to his co-worker Seth and Seth’s fiancé Kristen. It quickly became clear that we would all be good friends and I was tentatively excited for a new girlfriend.

The few close female friends I had locally faded away when I became sick earlier this year. The loss of that companionship has been a source of sadness for me.

Saturday Kristen invited me out to go shopping with her. Neither of us are big shoppers but we were looking for Halloween decorations and some pieces for our costumes.

It was my first girl’s date in awhile and it was wonderful.

New friends make me happy.

About

Band Back Together is a group weblog that provides educational resources as well as a safe, moderated, supportive environment to share stories of survival. Through the power of real stories written by real people, we can work together to destigmatize mental illness, abuse, rape, baby loss and other traumas so that we may learn, grow, and heal.

On Band Back Together, we put a face to things not normally discussed. We are the face of depression. We are the face of baby loss. We are the face of mental illness. We are the face of abuse. We are the face of rape. We are the face of SURVIVORS and we are proud to be here. We wear our scars proudly, like battle wounds because everything we've survived has made us who we are today: better, stronger, and smarter.

It's time to pull our skeletons out of the closet and make them dance the tango.

We will no longer let our secrets fester inside. We will no longer live in the dark.

All are welcome.
