ADHD Community? (aussie.zone)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Dreadrat@aussie.zone to c/meta@aussie.zone
 

Hey I mod the adhd_australia on reddit. Can we set one up with the same name here? I'd like to direct people here as an alternative. Don't want it to be confused with other general ADHD Lemmee communities.

Could probably do with one for Autism or ASD too.

There was interest in the Melbourne group for something along those lines too. Would a joint ADHD/ASD group work, and if there is enough volume they could be split later?

Agreed, as a general rule I'd rather have meaningful community names than to replicate the name of an existing subreddit.

I second the joint ADHD/ASD group as symptoms can overlap and many people can have both. It could even be broadened further to be a general mental health or disability community if needed.

Community name suggestion?

[–] UnusualSandgroper@aussie.zone 1 points 1 year ago

For a joint ADHD/ASD group, people usually refer to it as AuDHD so that would be my first suggestion. I don't really have any other suggestions past that.
