"Very positive post, thank you. Developed a damaged neurological system at 20 after beating cancer. Body wouldn’t work properly, couldn’t balance, could hardly move, go out, immune system completely compromised. Had intense seizures which made my body feel like it was shutting down. I last few years recovered. Out of my comfort zone, but couldn’t care less what people think of me. Going to Empire in September and hopefully going to Amsterdam in 2022." Oh Amsterdam I wanted to go there | |||

"Unfortunately the world is not always filled with decent human beings. Your attitude is right, don't them grind you down. Other people may fail you but don't fail yourself. Two mottos I go by in this world (that I think are relevant here) are: You can't change the wind but you can adjust the sail. You can only piss with the dick you've got. I don’t know if it any help but in our experience of the club scene there are loads of people with conditions and/or disabilities and/or mental health issues. You by far not alone. Often its not obvious until you get to know people or get physical with them. Most of us have something not functioning the typical way. Granted to lesser or more extents. For example someone we'd know for a while we hadn't know had been lip reading us for all that time. They didn't say anything until come one time we were having a conversation with them and started looking in a totally opposite direction. In in a world where so many of us do have problems its sad that people can be so ignorant and unpleasant. I know in comparison its minor but me (Mr) struggles socially. I'm somewhere on the spectrum and it can make social situations very hard work at times. Although I'm reasonably good at masking it and over the years learnt the 'rules' of social interactions (that everyone else seems to know instinctively). But sometimes it's very mentally draining and when it doesn't go well can result in me becoming a little odd and very awkward (to some people's amusement, Mrs Misfit). Also Dyslexia doesn't help the situation. " Thank you for sharing your story with us.. so we are not alone and I’m sure we can show them that we are better than them | |||

"OP, I'm sorry you've had those experiences and hope you are able to move on from them. I use a wheelchair or crutches due to a pelvic nerve injury acquired during my last pregnancy. I also have pelvic instability (the joints in my pelvis move too much) and damaged discs in my back, which just adds to the mix! I have a very weak left hip, leg and foot and also significant neuropathic pain. A lot of clubs are completely inaccessible, so I have to use my crutches inside (most have stairs), so this can be an issue because the more I stand/walk, the worse my pain and I won't want to play. Mr KC has carried my chair upstairs into clubs before, but once inside, most clubs don't have space for me to move around, or the play areas are down/up stairs anyway. There are lots of people with disabilities on here and in the swinging world...." I think it’s time for clubs to make it more accessible for people with disabilities so they can enjoy the experience of club life without having any barriers!! I’ve taught some staff to learn basic sign language at jaydee so when I or any people with hearing loss make them feel welcomed | |||
