in Start here and say hello!

I've been disabled for about six years now. Mobility is an issue, as is mental health. As is pain. Not had any social life for about 10 years. Came here to see if there's anything I can do to improve My independency and feelings of isolation.

    Hi @MissCoughDrop, nice to meet you here. Online people can be your social life for a bit, ain't it?

    Hang in there, all these things you mention are not easy to deal with, you are not alone with those struggles.

    Hi my name is Marrianne & I am a 51 year old female with numerous physical/mental health disabilities which make me housebound and I am looking for like-minded people to make any friends who are Open-minded/Accepting & Unbiased within the community as I do not have any friends or family around me & miss being social.

    Good morning @Marrianne, I hope you appreciate that there are few to no members on at this hour. I'm sure you will be welcomed at a more civilised time of day!

    God bless you & yes I do understand. Having disabilities which calls you a lot of pain can also cause ungodly hours of being awake unfortunately but I am so glad that you message me back and I hope you are well πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ
