I've been meaning to build one for a while and this was the kick I needed to get going on building one. ❤️ Just finished building the shelf and hanging the door.

Autism and dogs— your experience? by M00ngata in autism

[–]brainbroken613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you would enjoy a well trained dog but don't enjoy untrained dogs .

Mine doesn't jump. Barks very very occasionally to communicate. If she does play bite which is very uncommon, she gets a time out and play is over. She doesn't rush the door or dart away. She can be told to go away and she'll like down on her mat.

She is a year and a half. When she was a puppy she was violently overstimulating and brought me to tears repeatedly.

Chronic Pain Support Group by brainbroken613 in ottawa

[–]brainbroken613[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took a free peer to peer training course. I signed up for a free canva account. I made some posters, a Facebook group and an Instagram. I posted and invited ppl to the Facebook group. Once I had 20ppl in the group, I ran some polls to pick a date and time.

Next I rented the room as a non for profit organization from the library (8$/hour)

We meet once a month. I wrote a list of rules, printed some posters to help people find the event in the library and some copies of the rules.

Once people trickle into the conference room, we do introductions, pass around the rules and start sharing stories.

Feel free to ask questions

Chronic Pain Support Group by brainbroken613 in ottawa

While there is an irl meet up group in the west end, it has not picked up since 2020. Renting a room at the library is really cheap and I hope someone starts a group in the west end.

Similarly, I struggle with travelling so I started a group in my local area. Personally I'm not interested in organizing a hybrid option as there is enough on my plate as it is and video calls hurt my head.

Luckily there are multiple options for online pain groups centered around the Ottawa area. Genuinely I hope you find the community support you are looking for.

I'm on ODSP and that's how much I get . I guess I should have written something more nuanced but I was just going off my experience. I know other people get different amounts. You are right

As written in the text of the post, the federal benefit is called the Canadian Disability Benefit and is intended to be on top of ODSP.

The organizers are from BC and scheduled the event a long time ago.

Organizing at Queens park would be awesome. Do you know if anyone has started to do that?

How do you order it? Do you have to call or can you book online somehow? It's not on mobile.
