I've been a member of the Healing Well Crohn's Disease Forum since I came home from the hospital with my diagnosis in 2006. I find it very comforting to know i am not in this alone and that there are other people going through similar and in many cases even much worse conditions than me. When I read about folks going through the really hard times I realize that I am doing pretty good and feel a little more lucky. I also use their experiences and information about things that might come down the path for me in the future. Forewarned is forearmed, as they say. And if I can answer a newbie's questions I feel like I am being helpful and that makes me feel good. Hey, that's why I created this site.
Here is a short list of some forums that you may want to check out and see if any are a good fit for you.
