Good video!
1) How do you feel this week?
I am tired and in pain.

@gentleSun78
1) How do you feel this week? Okay, not great.
2) Do you feel empowered? Why? Why not? I don't feel empowered, my health doesn't seem to be too great recently.
3) Do you feel that community around you is accessible for you? Why? Why not? What community?
5) What do you struggle with this week? Migraines/headaches
@MythologicalMayhem It must be very hard for you that you suffer so much with your issues.
With community i meant whether there are sufficient accomodations available that you can be active in as much activities as possible. For example, for wheelchair users, there can be parking slots for disabled, ramps for disabled on entrances of buildings to bypass the stairs, lifts, adapted toilets, etc.
If building, for example, has no lift and meeting is in 3rd floor, person on wheelchair can't attend the meeting and so, they can feel left out due to it. Lift is needed in this case to ensure person on wheelchair feels empowered and community around them is accessible.
@gentleSun78
Oh right, thank-you. Yeah I think for the most part it's accessible for me thankfully.
@MythologicalMayhem I am glad to hear that community is accessible to you most part.
@gentleSun78
1) How do you feel this week? I feel ok
2) Do you feel empowered? Why? Why not? When I come here yes. Irl not so much. Why, because people here are pawsome n I feel they want me to succeed. Why not,because of my Family.
3) Do you feel that community around you is accessible for you? Why? Why not? It's hard for me to go out, between triggers and my sensitivity to sunlight and overheating easily.
4) What would you need to be adapted in your community to be able to live more indepedently? Being able to get in a car would help but that's not gonna happen.
5) What do you struggle with this week? As always identity lack of quality sleep
@Fireskye13 I am glad that you are ok. It must be very hard for you that you lack quality sleep and that you have got issues with your family due to which you don't feel empowered. I am glad that you feel empowered on 7cups as it suits you and people here wish that you are successfull.
