Hello everyone.


As always, we ask that in order to participate in the weekly megathread, one self-identifies as some form of disabled, which is broadly defined in the community sidebar:

“Disability” is an umbrella term which encompasses physical disabilities, emotional/psychiatric disabilities, neurodivergence, intellectual/developmental disabilities, sensory disabilities, invisible disabilities, and more. You do not have to have an official diagnosis to consider yourself disabled.

Mask up, love one another, and stay alive for one more week.

      Well, you could be put on the waiting list and even if it doesn’t help with employment, at least you’d get confirmation from a professional, eventually. Idk if that would be helpful to you, but the waiting list also allows you to drop out and you wouldn’t have to pay such insane amounts of money for it.
