Monthly Meeting Rules for Google Meet

1. Only Members of our IH Community can attend our meetings. Non-members cannot attend our meetings. Non-members will be asked to leave our meetings by Admins. Pets are welcome to make background appearances. 

2. Members must be on video during our meetings; this is for privacy and security reasons. Keeping videos on ensures that no uninvited guests sit in on our meetings. If you do need to turn off your video for any reason during our meetings, please send a message to one of the Admins using the chat box in Google Meet and or send a message to one of the Admins using FB Messenger.

3. Members will keep their microphones on mute and microphones will only be turned on when speaking, by keeping microphones on mute background noises will be minimized, this will allow all members to hear each other clearly.

4. Members will raise their hand if they wish to speak; this can be done by raising your hand physically or using the raise hand button. Admins will keep note and ensure everyone has a turn to speak.

5. Members can use headphones and earbuds to ensure that privacy is maintained during our meetings; using them is helpful when you are sharing space with non-members during our meetings.

1. Who can be a member? - This group is for people diagnosed with IH. It is not for people seeking a diagnosis, nor for those who have other kinds of hypersomnia, insomnia, or other sleep issues.

2. No seeking diagnosis questions - Please do not seek a diagnosis here, for yourself or anyone else. This is a group for those diagnosed with Idiopathic Hypersomnia or those who support us.

3. Be kind and courteous - Healthy debates are natural, but kindness is required. Let's treat every with respect.

4. Respect everyone's privacy - Being part of this group requires mutual trust. Authentic, expressive discussions make groups great, but may also be sensitive and private. What's shared in the group should stay in the group.

5. Please do not give medical advice - None of the content of this group is official medical advice. Feel free to discuss what works for you, but always be sure to talk to your doctor before implementing any advice you come across.

6. No inappropriate behaviour - If you think someone is being inappropriate, please send a message to an Administrator or moderator.
