Our Forum is a very friendly and safe space, fully moderated by other young people with ME. If you haven't yet registered for the Forum yet, you can do that here (it's free!). Pop the drop-in time and date in your calendar, and hope to see you there!

Our drop ins usually involve fun games and quizzes, as well as having time for real-time online chat with other Forum users who understand what it’s like to live with ME.
