How the hell am I supposed to live? This isn’t even enough to cover rent in my area. I have a move-out date of August 31st and I have no clue what we’re going to do.

I’m so sorry. I’ve had to move out of the country to survive on SSDI.

I’ve heard some people live okay in rural massachusats.

A community/support group for chronically ill people. While anyone is welcome, our number one priority is keeping this a safe space for chronically ill people.

Rules

Be excellent to each other
Absolutely no ableism.
No quackery. Does an up-to date major review in a big journal or a major government guideline come to the conclusion you’re claiming is fact? No? Then don’t claim it’s fact. This applies to potential treatments and disease mechanisms.
No denying or minimising challenges faced by chronically ill people. This is a support group, not a place for people to spout their opinions on disability.
