Disabled friends : Disability living

 This group is for members with disabilities and other problems, such as disabilities, difficulties, mental health, long-term conditions, illnesses long term, lifetime, and more only. The options are to try and make friends, try to get support, and raise awareness of your own disabilities, and mental health so that, even most of if not some of the admin team share the same if not similar. There be no parents, carers, professionals, etc. on this group other than say maybe less than a few on of our Admin team, other than that the group is for you to be on here for any reason you want but there will be safety rules, guarding and purposes to keep everyone on the group safe. We want this to be a fun and enjoyable group so please feel free to invite people you may know who will be interested and benefit from this group, remember people with disabilities and other problems only.

We hope not to create another group again or for a long time, which is why we want this group to be special. We would be grateful for your support in spreading the word to people on Facebook who may be interested and who may benefit. Thank you.
If you wish to join groups with parents, carers, family members, and professionals, as well as people with disabilities and others, we have a group called Disability and Always Learn About Disability + Never Judge Disability. If you are not fussed, it's up to you, but you could join this and our other groups as many and as little as you like.

Admin Alistair Wilkinson  



This group is for people with disabilities, mental health problems, and long-term or lifetime conditions who want to try to make friends with members the same if not similar to themselves. This is not a dating group, but we do not interfere with what happens, so don't bring it into the group. However,' your safety and privacy matter so feel free to report any problems on and off the group from people in this group with proof, more information will be on the pinned post and my website link. 

No porn, hacking, buying, selling either.
No personal information on the group such as home addresses, personal phone numbers, email addresses, no passwords. We advise if you give personal information, only on private messages, if you have known people long enough, those you can trust. Please be careful, any problems please feel free to report them to us, with proof so don't block and remove them from the group by mistake no one is blocked who hasn't done anything wrong. Just to let you know videos are allowed that are safe to show.
Purpose, advice, and safety guarding.
To try and make friends you need to write a brief message to introduce yourself. For example, my name is Fred Blogs, I am 21 and I come from London. I like playing football and I am a gardener. Like our other group, we have a private message and friend request rule. It is your choice whether or not you want to give people permission to pm or friend request you and the same for them towards you, please respect one another, if someone doesn't want to get involved with you or you don't it is our job or and theirs to respect and accept that. However,' this is a friendship group for disabled people and other problems only.
Again, like our other groups unless you know someone or you know someone is alright about PMing or and friend requesting ask their permission first, do not contact them unless they say yes, and they will have to request you the same too. There will be plenty of other people on the group and others joining too be patient and remember not everyone thinks the same. Feel free to add a selfie with your message if you like but make sure it is clean and safe.
Feel free to chat on the group, post hobbies, interests, etc. Just to say as well, it is fine to try and make friends without private messaging or friend requests if you wish to do so, those who think otherwise need to respect and accept your choice and theirs. Some people may be just happy to post, chat, etc. on the group.

This group is for people with disabilities, mental health problems, and term or lifetime conditions who want to try to make friends with members the same if not similar to themselves. This is not a dating group, but we do not interfere with what happens outside of the group so don't bring it into the group. However,' your safety and privacy matter so feel free to report any problems on and off the group from people in this group, more information will be on pinned post and my website link.

 Learning disability and Mental health awareness 2024.

 

Introduction. The purpose of writing this report is because October is learning disability month, and I will raise mental health awareness simultaneously. Also, many Universities, schools, and colleges will be starting the new year of learning whether you are moving up a year or staying where you are.

 My name is Sara Jane Gorman, I have disabilities and mental health problems myself, including Autism, epilepsy, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Anxiety and Depression.

 This used to be a visiting lecture on Learning disability and Mental health awareness. It is for those who are involved in the lives of people with learning disabilities and mental health issues or who work or study in the field.

 Whether you are a parent, family member, carer, social worker, teacher, tutor, lecture, support worker, doctor, nurse, Career advisor, Employment officer, Housing officer or any other professional who may teach, train or and support, care for people who face disability and mental health.

What is a learning disability? A learning disability is a disorder to the brain, body, or both, which happen before, during, or and after birth. This may affect how someone learns but different people who face learning disabilities face how they affect them in different ways. However,’ they face strengths and weaknesses in different ways like other people to one another. What is different to other people, we may be slower, and we may need more help and support with such as say doing shopping, paying bills, getting a job, housework, somewhere to live etc.

 Most people may need help with personal care for e.g., cutting nails, hair, washing, bathing, showering, dressing, etc. These difficulties faced by someone in a wheelchair, walking or and hidden disabilities. https://www.mencap.org.uk/learning-disability-explained/what-learning-disability

https://www.mencap.org.uk/learning-disability-explained/learning-disability-and-conditions    https://www.mencap.org.uk/about-ld?gclid=CjwKEAjw1Iq6BRDY_tK-9OjdmBESJABlzoY7qA1zUG7gdV00JMBxMWmecoqorTcDHEyhjOix1uA4ehoCAkvw_wcB

Learning disability, learning difficulty and mental health, mental ill health most people often get confused with all five of those.

 

Such conditions as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADHD can affect peoples’ learning ability where for example, they may need support with keeping up with everyone else in the classroom or and work force, which is a learning difficulty. https://www.mencap.org.uk/learning-disability-explained/learning-disability-and-conditions/learning-difficulties

A learning disability is when someone struggles with more personal skills like I said about managing at home, trying to get education, a job, etc. https://www.dol.gov/agencies/odep/initiatives/ndeam

 

Most people with a learning disability may struggle to get the health care they need due to being misunderstood because they may struggle to explain what are facing and what they are not. They may struggle to say how they feel what sort of pain they may be facing for example. https://www.mencap.org.uk/learning-disability-explained/communicating-people-learning-disability

They may struggle to communicate with others in all sorts of situations, but health is one of them.

Mental health is Emotional wellbeing. You do not need to face a learning disability to face mental ill health. However,’ most people with a learning disability face poor mental ill health. Neither one is linked to the other. When comes Mental health it can be when your Mental health is good and you have less things to feel sad about, angry about etc. Poor mental health meaning mental ill health is when you are feeling sad, angry a lot about different things, it does not necessary mean but may be such Anxiety, Depression. For example, someone feeling Anxious, worried, angry, sad, crying a lot etc.  https://www.mencap.org.uk/blog/whats-difference-between-learning-disability-and-mental-health-problem 

 

Mental health is how we think, feel, behave, even or moods, how we act and even react to our lives around us whether it is in a positive or negative way. Really without realizing it, Mental health is something we all face in different ways from our childhood, teenage years, adults, middle-aged and elderly.  In many cases how life is around us can make us the people we are, which what has happened our family, school, work home etc. Family history, Trauma, Abuse. https://www.samhsa.gov/mental-health  https://www.samaritans.org/

Always Learn About Disability + Never Judge Disability

 This group is people with disabilities or and Mental health problems, issues, etc. Also are those who are in their lives, working, studying, trained, and qualified in the disability or and mental health field. This could mean parents, carers, social workers, support workers, those who work and/or study health, education, housing, employment, etc. Such as teachers, tutors, lecturers, doctors, nurses, etc. 

People with disabilities or mental are allowed to make friends if they want to, post, and chat about hobbies, interests, animals, and more.  Please be mindful that there may be professionals, trainees, students, parents, and carers in the group. Those who want to try and make friends do not just pm and send friend requests etc unless you know there have been pming them, or added as a friend to them already, write a message on the group asking permission to those you don't know who you want to speak to. This is so hopefully you don't get any unexcepted contracts from those you have never spoken to and those who have never spoken to you. 

If you know people who may be interested and who may benefit from this group if you possibly can we would be grateful for members to join us but only if they want to join. Just a tip from our past experience if you do invite do not invite by the group but other ways like email, private message, etc. The reason for this is that when members have invited people from our groups, on most requests their questions are not answered, which makes me think they don't know the answers, the questions are there to keep the group safe but if you know the answer or and you have the person or people's permission feel free to invite them by the group if not then if they want to join they must request by you giving them our group link and answer the question themselves thank you.

I want to try to help everyone understand this group. How it is understood is the way we know it, meaning everyone who loves music and or other things too is more than welcome but you don't need to have disabilities or mental health to join this group, everyone is welcome either or all ways.
The purpose of this group is to give members to feel they can join for however many reasons they need or want, music, because may face disabilities or mental health, you may do our or and want support, care for teach etic, those who have disabilities and or mental health. You may enjoy music, hobbies, interests, careers or you may want to support those who want them to make friends and more. This may mean one, some, most, or all options but please respect that not everyone likes or needs the same.

Just want to welcome Members who have just joined us and those who have been here however long or short since I set it up about hours ago.
Just a few tips and advice for those who may want to try and make friends. A couple of safety rules I Forgot to do this bit of safeguarding and, I would advise no personal, private information such as names, addresses, and phone numbers on the group, on pm, or emails etc, up to you but please be mindful. I could guess most of you are mindful but it is also easy to make mistakes and make ourselves misunderstood without meaning to, I have done it myself in the past.
Feel free to write a message on the group saying you are from for eg; I am Fred Blogs from London. Maybe saying a bit about yourself, like for eg; I am a gardener, I like drawing and painting as a hobby. See if anyone and who replies, it's up to you if you wish to give them permission to pm, friend request you etc or not and respect each other's choices. Just to say this is just an example.

Hi, all welcome to Music, Mental Health, disability and more, we hope you enjoy the group.

These could be things that are still made and things that are not made anymore.
Safety rules will be on my website, which is our Facebook website as well.
Make sure you don't request any more than 2 profiles, whether it's one profile or 2 make sure you have a picture of you in the place where the profile picture is so it's seen when you post etc.
Also, if you face disabilities, mental health, or other problems
or if you are involved in those people's lives for example support, family, parent, etc we have that sort of group as 3 of us Admins are disabled ourselves, our disabled and mental health groups are called DISABILITY AND MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT and ACCESS ALL AREAS NOW, DISABILITY AND MENTAL HEALTH TALK for those who face disabilities or mental health or and those who are involved in their lives are more than welcome to join.
However, we understand that a lot of people in music groups are in a lot of music groups. If any of you know people who may be interested to join this group, please feel free to ask them, invite them, etc, your support is grateful if you can.
Do you face disabilities, mental health, or other problems if so what?

Safety guarding around the member's chat group, Admins are added on there but may be not on very often, only to look and see if everyone is safe.
However,' please feel free to report anything unsafe whether it is on the member's chat, group or both, meaning any member or admin. Please try to prove what's happened so we can see clearly who is responsible, whether it is the group, chat, person or people.
Do not pm or and friend requests unless you ask permission off the person or people you wish to or if you know them or and added them as a friend if or and have been PMing them already.
Do not write your personal information the group or member's chat such as home addresses, email addresses, passwords, personal phone numbers etc., when there are a lot of people on the groups and chats, some people may pass on your contact details to others without you being aware.
If you experience any of these problems feel free to report it to us, providing proof to us, we will be grateful for as we do not want to block and remove anyone who is not in the wrong.
When we are on and offline may vary, so please be patient with us, if it happens, that we don't see to be around, write a message on asking one of us to pm and we will respond as soon as we see your message, don't say what the problem is until we message you. Some Admins may not feel safe, which is not anything against you, pm someone they don't know so whoever sees your message may report it to another Admin or myself. If you know the admin or, they are on your profile, you have been PMing each other already you have their permission, it is fine to pm them right off but if they busy, they may take a while to reply. While waiting it is fine to take time off the group until one of us replies and hopefully the problem gets solved, if you feel safer. This applies to the Member's chat as well as the group. Sorry for a lot of information and thank you for your patience.


Just to let you know, the reason why we have created this group today is that over a matter of months, Admins have been busier doing other things, but we have some time to go on the groups. Therefore, we hope to make this into one all-in-one group and close down three groups. From past experience, it doesn't always work that way. We are going to give it any time between now and just before xmas to see how the group goes, if it is a success by then we will keep this and close down our three groups if not we will close this one and keep the three. To try and help us make the group a success, we would be so grateful for you as well as ourselves to invite people who may be interested in joining this group, thank you.
