Chronic Fatigue Syndrome is a difficult and challenging illness that affects every aspect of our lives. Gay people with CFS (or ME) also face additional challenges added onto what others with this illness have to deal with. Finding support and other people with this illness to feel connected to can be difficult. I am hoping gay people and others in their lives will find it safe here in this group to discuss anything they like, while always treating others with the respect and kindness. I know the group may start out small, but I am hoping as time goes on it will grow. Regardless of the number of people in the group, I am hoping that by joining you will find support, information and companionship here. The group is open to anyone who is gay, lesbian, bi-sexual or transexual.

There aren't a whole lot of rules here, but I do want to point out a couple of things. We do not allow anyone selling things here at all. Also, since people talk about their lives here, some of them may be uncomfortable with lurkers who read about them, but do not post themselves. Until we get to know you a bit I feel it is fair to ask new members to post at least once a month. Of course, you should only post about what you are comfortable with others knowing about your life. Hopefully since this is a moderated private group we will all feel safe to talk with one another here. We look forward to meeting you!
