Welcome to the Wakan Circle abuse shelter...here you will find hope, love and understanding...many of us have been where you are...and know what it is like to be treated with abuse. Here we share our experiences... show others that there is hope...and share how we healed. There are many suggestions we can make to help those who feel things are hopeless. Anyone who wishes is welcome to join the recovery chats on Monday-Wednesday-Friday mornings at 9am EST ( 8am CST). We talk mostly about recovery from addictions and being codependent...but abuse is discussed too...many of us were also abuse victims. The important thing to remember is you are NOT alone...there are others who are willing to help...or just listen...love and hugs, Cheri
