This is a continuously updated list of communities dedicated to health, or specific diagnoses, from all around the Lemmy network.
There are some disclaimers and notes below the list. Check them too.

How to use links?
If you’re having problems with some links (such as a “community not found” message), see the FAQ on this post. I had to remove the dual links due to the character limit.

Notes:
-
I’m not vouching for any of these communities, check at your own discretion. Some of them are abandoned or inactive, so if you see one without activity that might be interesting, consider bringing it back to life and crosspost here. Communities with no content whatsoever aren’t included.
-
Work in progress - let me know if you know of new communities that aren’t in the list, or if you have other feedback.
(1) Kbin is a different network from Lemmy. Interactivity may be limited or delayed.
(2) These instances aren’t federated with lemmy.world. To interact, you need to have an account on an instance that federates with them.
Important: Some instances may gravitate towards politics or philosophies different from your own. Inclusion of a health community of any instance does not mean endorsement of that philosophy.
I made [email protected] as a backup. I’m posting there once in a while, and if it starts growing maybe I’ll put more effort. But the backup exists now incase.
