    Health-related communities, particularly those for specific medical conditions. Those are the communities that really become a lifeline for people, help them through diagnoses or just difficult times, and can serve as an excellent resource. I was active on r/diabetes_t1 on Reddit and am trying to get a community started here on Lenny.world (!T1diabetes).

      Agreed. I found an asthma one so I’m trying to be active there every day. I need to find endometriosis, bunions, gastric surgery 😂. I’m a total crock health wise and these chats help

      Yes! Also kinda related, I liked r/SocialAnxiety and r/Dyslexia. It’s a place where we can go and help/encourage eachother.

        Yes these are exactly the kinds of communities I’m hoping will get replicated on Lemmy.

      Second this! It was great hearing the different treatments people tried, doctor recommendations… having that safe space to feel sorry for oneself about the side effects or symptoms. I could see it happening here when Lemmy grows in numbers a bit.
