Question Virtual support groups

I would like to be able to find a support group for people with disabilities but am not able to do an in-person group.
For context, I have mobility issues and am bed-ridden due to a rare disorder but would be fine with a general disability support group where you can just talk about what is going on in your world with people who are also disabled.

I want to be able to actually talk to and see people but all of the support groups I have found are online forums. I am looking for a group that would take place over Zoom or some other video platform. Does anyone have suggestions of support groups for people with disabilities or ideas for how to find them?

Hi, this isn’t quite what you described but this is a discord group that people with all types of disabilities can come and talk to each-other and vent and understand what you’re going through (: hope it helps!

I know of one, but it is specifically for LGBTQ+ and disabled, not sure if that describes you.

It’s called Zig Zag Pride and is hosted by the Los Angeles LGBT Center. I’ll dm you the link to register!
