Hi I’m in my mid thirties, single mom with physical and mental disabilities I suffer with anxiety and ocd and find it hard to accept some times. I wondered if any like minded people would like to become friends and offer support

    Hi @purplepetal I am in my 50s but have absolutely been there, you're welcome to message me absolutely any time for support, rant, anything !
    I brought up my two boys after divorcing when my youngest was 5, I have always struggled with social anxiety and more lately GAD and OCD. I had spine surgery when I was 21, and have struggled with physical symptoms ever since.
    I will say, even now that I am still finding it hard to accept, but learn to manage it, somehow.

    Hi @purplepetal. Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us. How are you at the moment?

    Thanks for briefly introducing yourself. I can hear that you want like-minded people to become your friends and offer support. Is there any support you are hoping for, in particular?

    Hopefully, this will be possible on Scope's forum. I think we are a supportive and friendly group. Some areas of the forum you might find particularly useful include:

    • Children, parents, and families
    • Physical and neurological impairments
    • Mental health and wellbeing
    Take care for now and we will look forward to hopefully hearing from you again soon and seeing you around on Scope's forum. 

    Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if we can do anything to help. We are all here for you and listening to you  :)
