This group is for people with PHYSICAL disabilities only. It is for people with physical diseases and disabilities not able bodied people-no matter their neurotype.

I'm sorry if this sounds rude but it is an incredible pet peeve of mine. I am a mentally disabled/ill AND physically ill/disabled person I know and understand the struggle. I really do. But please, if you are an able-bodied and/or someone without a chronic physical condition please go to the groups made for people with your mental illness. Dont come to a space made for physical issues-not mental.

I even have the physical only part as a PSA on the lage but obviously that hasnt been enough.

I don't say this out of malice I am just incredibly frustrated at peoples flagrant disrespect and honestly its been building up for a long while now.

Hello and happy December everyone! We haven't been the most active and I apologise for that. So I'm clearing some dust, first with a brand new icon (by myself,  CARVORE) and secondly, with a new discussion journal!

With the holidays approaching, everyones busy and running into all sorts of issues. So whats everyone planning this month, how has it been so far and is there anything youre looking forward too?

Have a good day!

Its almost December, and that means SNOW and COLD. Has anyone been finding a way to beat the winter blues?

Happy Pain/Chronic Pain Awareness week! This week we show support and spread information about illnesses/disease such as arthritis, chronic migraines, fibromyalgia, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Costochondritis, IBS, Crohn’s disease, spina bifida, scoliosis, phantom pain, POTS, endometriosis, and many others!

Anyone here with any of these? Well if so it's your week to shine!

So who's ready for it? Anyone going to be dressing up at all, or going out somewhere? Or perhaps even staying inside and watching movies?

I hope that you're all having a wonderful thanksgiving and have, or had a wonderful time with your loved ones. Or at least have eaten some good food. Hopefully we all have something to be thankful for this year!

I decided to doodle a cute little icon for the group, to fit the more furry theme. so I doodled a blue fox holding the blue cross, since that seems to be a recurring theme haha.

A little meet thing? Where everyone can go introduce themselves and their conditions and stuff. I think it would be interesting, and a good way to get to know people and also find other folks who deal with similar/the same illnesses so there can be more help/advice spread around! It's also a good way for folks to share their stories and such if they're interested (for example someone with bipolar disorder whos had it for awhile may be able to help someone on her who just got recently diagnosed who still needs help figuring it out and stuff)

so, would anybody be interested in this?

I doodled a new icon for the group, I hope its a bit of an improvement from the other one haha

Welcome! I hope whoever is here is enjoying their time here. I would like to say that I'm happy there's finally a group for this, and that there's already a few (and I mean few) people coming around.

Please help this group by spreading the word if you can!
