Hi:

I had been a member of this forum site for autistics for 9 years and I usually post topics there is a lot of their message boards. They used to be more helpful but lately, they have either been ignoring my posts or seem to be unsupportive and dismissive on there when I have things on there that I am concerned about. Their responses these days are critical and very cold. I don't like the interactions right now.

Hey Summer,

Thats a long time to dedicate yourself to a site for which is really impressive. It is great there is a community out there that you felt a part of and a place you felt comfortable sharing content onto the message boards qith like minded people. Its disappointing to hear that the way you feel about the site isnt quite the same as before and now you are experiencing ignorance and unsupportive behaviour and that you feel dismissed. I wish that wasn't happening to you as it isn't a pleasant feeling to experience, especially on a site intended for support. As you have discovered, we have this Autism communtiy on 7Cups which if you wanted to, you are more than welcome to get involved in!!

I hope stuff looks up for you soon and you feel welcome within this community.

@secretBirch261

Thank you so much, I was very upset there. I think if I go get upset, I can find a listener or go to the disability chat

Sounds a good plan. Glad you found ways to cope
