aurora31 -> BDSM suport group (10/31/2006 12:21:24 PM)

Okay after reading sevral posts ( mine included) lately about being ill and how it effects living the lifestyle. Especially for sub/slaves who have problems accetping that they can not serve in the way they are acustomed to. And feel bad becuase of it. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in maybe stating a on-line suport group or a weekly discusion group where we could talk aabout the day to day frustrations of our illnesses and how it effects us. A place where we could vent and it is okay to share our way of life and how our illnesses effect it.A place where we could find suport from others who are in our shoes so to speak.

I am not that technilogically inclined or I might try and get something going myself...but if there was enough interest I am sure we could find someone amoung us who is and get something going. I know for me personally I would find it comforting to be able to vent my frustrationd in the unfairness of my cancer and of the dreams I have that may never be fullfilled. Of my fear of what is happening to me. Of the joys of a clear CT scan and being NED for 6 weeks.

I do look forward to seeing if anyone else would be interested in something like this or if they know someone who might be.

If you are really interested in doing this you may try a yahoo group or an MSN group, perhaps include a link to the group in your sigline? It is not hard to do at all.

I know that if I found out I was ill I would love to belong to a group like this, and it is a wonderful idea that you maybe able to promote on several forums and sites. I am sure you are correct that there are many disabled or chronically ill people in the lifestyle that can help each other cope. You could also tell others about it on your profile. You may also help people that have these sorts of isssues find each other!

I'd check into your local community if you really want to benefit from it.
As these board's have shown over and over people aren't exactly what
they claim to be on the internet.  At least in person you know who you are
speaking to.
Better chance at forming relationships with real people.

sub4hire..I am already pretty active in my local community and have gotten much support there. But I have yet to meet anyone in my local community who is facing a life altering illness, one that prevents them from serving to their fullest capacity or as in my case one that is life threatening

MSN has recently shut down the chats for some groups.  I am a member of a widows group that lost our chat and it has really been a hardship for us all.  The type of group you are suggesting is a wonderful idea.  It would be a grief group since illness and the loss that goes with it is grief.  Only this group would have an added twist which would be wonderful for those in the lifestyle needing a bit of extra support.  It is true that you don't really know who you are talking to on line.  However if they are interested in joining these type of groups under false pretences they really are sick!

Dear aurora31, Ladies and Gentlemen;
 
My mind's eye recalls seeing a D/s with Disabilities group in Yahoo a good while back and a few versions of Yahoo ago; when they had a private room.
 
My mind's eye recalls seeing on tribe dot net, groups for those with disabilities.
 
In addition, the Master-slave conference in Washington, DC has had for both years, workshops for those dealing with illness and or disabilities, to include presenters. 
 
I have dealth with many wonderful individuals, on an individual basis with disabilities and illness.  It really is tough to face illness and seeing your passions suffering. 

My personal advice is, that in the lurch of being put into a different outlook on things, a person needs to do their individual healing, venting, mourning and all the emotional shifts that go with it.  Then get creative!  You know yourself best.  The next stage is teaching us how to participate in your world and not be afraid to offer the training on how to include them and them to include you.
 
Respectfully submitted for consideration,
Lady Hugs
