Hi,
I joined this forum yesterday as I received my diagnosis within the last week.
I got a message saying my account has been reported as being either fake or spam. This is freaking me out. Can someone help me understand how/why this could happen?
Hi Lola - congratulations on your diagnosis and welcome to the community!
From one bunny to another, I love your profile pic
As Fibonacci Squid explained, this has been happening a lot recently - not just to new accounts, but also to longstanding members. However, there's good news! The forum will be migrating to a new system later this month and the NAS has advised that it should resolve this issue, along with many others, including the s l o w n e s s, which has also got a lot worse recently! :)
In light of your recent diagnosis, you might find the information here helpful:
NAS - After diagnosis
It covers a range of subjects, including how you might feel, talking about and disclosing your diagnosis to others, emotional support for family members, and information about sources of formal support for you.
