Hello
Is it new here? :0
Hi hi @SunnyCat0, I adore your profile picture hehe!
I think, yes, this one's a new sub-community! Did you explore around more?💛
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
thanks! 💖
and no I haven't explored too much, it gets overwhelming
@SunnyCat0
Aw it sure can be overwhelming around here, please do feel free to be at your pace.💛
Yay @sunisshiningandsoareyou (I never type your username correct first time lol)
I am so happy there is now an autism community, the support plus forum sometimes felt a bit like anything that didn't fit anywhere else was dumped in there. I hope to see the subcom a bit more active :0 is there anyone leading it to communicate ideas to for sub sections, etc.? I don't think I'm stable enough to apply for a role but I'd still love to contribute some of my ideas.
Being autistic definitely has its hard days and I hope we can support each other as a sub community. We are strong and awesome! 🌻
@teenytinyturtle
Awww this one worked haha!
I see how it would feel like one of those "put it all together in a mash" sort of situation earlier, but so glad there are more topic-focused sub communities now, and yay for finding a place here that feels more comfortable and welcoming to be in. 💛
I feel since some of these sub communities are newly established, it would take some time to better structure the sub-topics/ forums and ofcourse that would require for the lovely community to step up with their ideas, suggestions and support, in whatever capacity possible to help in building and strengthening the sense of community and support here.
You (and anyone reading this) are always welcome to send @cheerymango a message with any ideas, suggestions or anything related.
Together is definitely a great place to be. Sending lots of love your way! 🌻

Hi hi Nahoa, it is so good to see you.
Yes there are more sub communities now, in different topics, so maybe more people can find their own community space, talk, share and connect with people who may relate with them more. 💛
I understand seeing so many sub communities must've been confusing and overwhelming, feeling anxious about so much to figure and explore is so valid, my friend. I feel as you do also.
One doesn't need to have a diagnosis to make a post or seek support in a particular sub community, if they feel they relate in someway, or find it comfortable to talk, seek or offer support here.
Yes, disability sub-community is still there, you can find here: https://www.7cups.com/forum/disabilities/ maybe it would help to try the sub-topic filter under this or any subcommunity to see what all is has to offer, and where might a post fit better.
The change is quite new, and understandably difficult to get used to, we are all allowed our time and pace to explore and get more familiar with the new places.
Please be assured you're not alone and can always reach out to us if you have any questions or need any support in navigating around the sub communities. Here with you, okie?! 💛
