Hello :) looking for community in these trying times

I’ve been thinking I should join this community for a while. I have Autism and a few other conditions that are currently keeping me reliant on benefits and I would really like to be able to be in community with people who are also affected by the recent string of announcements about benefits.

Sometimes this legal stuff feels really isolating, and I think it would be nice to see how other people who are going through the same thing cope and figure it out.

    hey,

    welcome to you.

    you're in the right place for understanding and support with your concerns, there's lots of autistics here, there are lots of non autistics who are worried about changes and of course a combination of both.
