At HealingWell, we believe healing is more than just medication or treatment plans — it’s about connection, understanding, and shared strength. We are a supportive community where individuals living with chronic illnesses can find empathy, insight, and a safe place to share their journey.
Whether you’re navigating Crohn’s, Fibromyalgia, Depression, Ulcerative Colitis, Prostate Cancer, or any other chronic condition, HealingWell exists to remind you: you are not alone.
Our Story
Founded in 1997, HealingWell began with a simple mission: to offer meaningful support to those affected by long-term health challenges. Over the years, it has grown into a global hub where patients, caregivers, and advocates come together to learn, share, and support one another.
With over 150,000 community members and millions of forum posts, our strength lies in our people — real individuals who show up daily with honesty, vulnerability, and compassion.
What We Offer
Safe & Inclusive Forums: Honest conversations, expert-moderated spaces, and 24/7 peer-to-peer support.
Curated Blog & Resources: Articles written by patients, for patients, offering practical advice and encouragement.
Emotional Wellness Support: Mental health is as important as physical health — we embrace both.
We provide not just information, but comfort and empowerment.
