Any New yorkers?

[Shally19]

Hey Peeps !

I'm from Trinidad and I moved here to new york almost 2years now to seek better treatment.
I left behind all my friends and most of my family... I'm only 19 its tough.

I haven't been back to school or had a job, because of course its difficult trying to keep this disease under control at times.

Anyone know of support groups to actually meet people or if there are any activities? maybe even a fitness group! that would be great to have others to motivate me exercise. Maybe we can all join a gym !

It would help to meet people and not be at home afraid of being judged by others.

The CCFA has support groups all over ... I am sure there are some in your area. go to CCFA.org. Good luck!

Hi Shally, I am not from New York and don't know of any in-person support groups, but we have a Fitness & Exercise support group right here on the forum. Here's the link if you'd like to join us:
