Start a Forum or Support Group

We need a few FacetoFace Health members to start support groups or forums. Several members struggle with bipolar, depression, epilespy, HIV, cancer, etc.

No one should struggle with the health alone. We need forums or support groups where members can post questions, thoughts, words of wisdom, and more.

If you are willing to offer support and encouragement to others who share your health condition(s), please start a support group!

How do we start a support group? I thought this whole FacetoFace site is considered one? I am assuming you mean minimizing it to a specific condition..... but I figure following and replying to others' posts is in a way a type of supporting others.

What do you all think??

Hi Sunny7 - Support groups geared toward a specific medical condition may be useful for members who are not taking advantage of the other connections on the site or who want to post a question that anyone in the group can answer.

But you are right, the site allows you to comment on any health diary which is a great way to offer support and encouragement to others. You can also communicate directly with any of your friends on the site.

We just wanted to be sure that we provided several options for people to ask questions and get support.

Thanks for being a part of this community.

After I read and posted on this, I noticed that there is a specific tab to click for SUPPORT GROUPS. Silly me! Good ideas.

Thanks
