Chronic Disease and Chronic Condition Support Community

Parkinson’s disease usually changes slowly, and each change asks you to adjust again. ShareWell has free online support groups for people living with long-term illness, and because they meet online there is no travel to arrange.

Good mornings, goals and gratitude's

Tue, Sep 29 | 6:00AM - 7:30AM UTC

Welcome to Good Mornings, Goals, and Gratitudes. Each morning, we meet with open hearts and tired eyes to greet the day gently, set a daily goal, and choose one small act of care for ourselves. Then, in return, we are grounded, lighter, and reminded that we are not alone. In the GGG, we start our day with positive quotes, journal prompts, self-care activities, daily intentions, and a goal we aim to achieve that day, followed by a moment of gratitude. Join us for a gentle, caring way to start your day.

Topic context

Understanding parkinson’s disease

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive condition that affects movement and can also affect speech, sleep, mood and thinking. Symptoms change over time, which affects independence and family roles.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with parkinson’s disease

Peer support can help with Parkinson’s because feeling self-conscious about a tremor or a quiet voice leads many people to stay home. In a group, members are patient and the pace is unhurried.

Are there Parkinson’s groups online?

ShareWell has no group for Parkinson’s alone at this point. This page lists groups for people living with long-term illness of any kind, together with calm sessions like breathwork.
