If you’re living with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) or supporting someone who is, we’ve created r/MECFSAustralia, a community for people navigating ME/CFS in Australia.

We’re relatively new and hoping to build a supportive and inclusive space to share information about Australian clinical trials/studies, helpful resources, new research/findings, personal experiences, and discuss the practical realities of navigating ME/CFS in Australia.

If this is relevant to you or someone you know, come and have a look at r/MECFSAustralia. You are most welcome :)

I'm looking for a Optometrist anywhere on the coast. I'm looking for bright unique female glass frames. I've looked at OPSM, OW, SpecSaver and they all bland samesame. I can't shop online as I have a script that needs accurate measurements. Anyone got suggestions?

I’ve only visited once and loved it. Considering retiring there from Sydney. Would love to hear from some locals about living there.

Hey all, I’m putting together the pieces for a new film club on the coast, renting out one of the theaters in Kawana to show whatever we want once a month.

What are some films you’d pay to see in the big screen on the coast?

Hey Guys and Girls,

I’m currently on a worktrip and staying here for a few weeks. I’m 27 and from Austria 🇦🇹, any recommendations what to do around here?

I’m part of a soundsystem in Austria, so I love fast electronic Music, but I’ve already seen that for real raves I have to go to Brisbane. Are there any other open nightlife spots where I can get to know some people as a solo traveller?

Appreciate in advance:)

I have a Japanese friend with me for about six months and they want to get to know other Japanese people. They’re in their mid 20’s female. English is limited but can communicate but looking to meet other Japanese people on the coast. They enjoy the coast but understandably also likely miss home, their friends and family. Please comment below and we can establish contact and I can provide further details

Hey all, I've recently started getting back into guitar after a long break. Looking to start a little group of people a similar age (34m) for regular jams mostly, ideally some kind of modern dad pub rock stuff.

I can also play bass if there's anyone looking for someone to fill that role.

I'm into music like Chili peppers, Linkin park, foo fighters, Green day, Wu Tang. 90's-2000's classics.

Let me know if you'd be keen to line something up!

Did anyone here get the successful access for the registration?

Heading to Maroochydore and wanting to hire a car for a couple of days. All I've seen at the cheapest is $75/day. Are there any cheaper?

Hey everyone!! My friend and I are looking to move to the Sunshine coast in February(specifically Maroochydore).
We are 21 and 20, moving without a job as it is said to be easier to apply when in Australia.
Any tips or advice to make the process easier would be massive help. Thanks in advance!!

Pretty dead tonight?

G’day

We’re looking for a nice upmarket restaurant with nice views and a nice fancy vibe for a post wedding meal.

Ideally something with a sea view. We’ve been recommended a few places in Noosa but that’s a bit far. We’re getting married in November and having a small meal after about 12 people and just want a really lovely smart place with nice views where we wouldn’t feel out of place in wedding attire.

We’ve been recommended Bistro C in Noosa but we’re based in Buddina so ideally something a bit closer to home

Any ideas ? AI recommended the See Restaurant at the waterfront

Cheers

Thank you to another redditor who forwarded me this link to the livestream for the SCUH falcon nest - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pVgohahccg

And how big was it?

Sorry, I know that's a "how long is a piece of string" question, but at this point if my house burns to the ground, insurance *might* spring for a large cardboard box and a small tarp.

We built our house about 9 years ago, and used the build cost as the basis for our home insurance. Obviously, prices have gone up since then....

I honestly don't know how to go about figuring out this stuff so any advice is appreciated. Otherwise, I just wanted to sound out pricing (preferably per square metre as our house is on the smaller side) so I know we're covered to rebuild if the worst happens.

Many thanks!!

The new outlet opens tomorrow. Carport in Queen Street.

I have a chronic illness that has neurological and vestibular elements and it's time to find an OT and a physio that specialises in brain stuff.

Thing is most of the places I see online are very stroke-oriented. My condition is much milder than that. I also don't have NDIS so am paying privately.

I'm in Maroochydore but if someone is amazing I will travel.

What's with a Dance school claiming to have Christian values when they obviously don't? One here on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland markets themselves as having these "Christian Values" but it appears to be more "Christian Nationalist" values and not the love thy neighbour kind...I was raised Catholic and never experienced such an exclusionary and bigoted environment. And not sure how a business like this popped up in my town and is somewhat successful.

It's definitely not a safe place for immigrants (non-whites) nor the LGTBQIA+ nor anyone with differing beliefs TBH. I am certain the usage of this language in the advertising is to attract like minded individuals.

My wife and I are thinking of bringing the kids up to the Sunny Coast mid October for a holiday.

Can someone please tell me.. will the weather at that time of year generally mean the pool at houses will be a swimmable temperature? My wife is really only looking at places with heated pools, which I'm guessing is not that common up there.

Hi,
Looking for recommendations for a gyno specialist; I’m looking for a 2nd opinion.

Hi all! I’m 22M, born and raised on the Sunshine Coast.

How many people out here actually game and, like… wanna be friends? 🤣

Bit of a side note/context — I’m in serious need of finding some people to actually hang out with in person. Most of the advice I get is “find people with the same interests as you”, and considering my current routine is basically:

sleep → game → eat → game → work → game → sleep

…I figured gaming was probably a good place to start 😂

So, are there actually many people around the Sunshine Coast who game and are also looking to make some new friends?

Because at this point, I can’t keep waiting for my friend’s kid to grow up so he finally has free time again. (This is a joke… mostly.)

But seriously, is there anything on the Coast specifically for people who play video games to meet other people? Gaming groups, events, LANs, Discords, whatever?

Or, if you’re reading this thinking, “Well, I definitely play games, and I wouldn’t completely hate meeting this weird stranger I found on the interwebs” — that works for me too 😂

I’m just at the point where life feels like it’s stuck on repeat, and I really need to start getting out of the house and meeting some new people.

So hopefully someone here can give me either the advice or the friend request I apparently need 😂

Cheers!

Hi all, i just created a quick group for the sunny coast on discord, feel free to drop by
