If you wonder what does healthcare and your health have to do with social media mechanisms like Facebook and Twitter, then take a quick look at the video below.
The term social media is a comprehensive term and a dynamic movement afoot. And, thank goodness, social media is not being solely left in the hands of young people. They’ve certainly prompted the strong movement, but baby boomers and people like me are picking up the pace, too. No matter what your age, young or old, you may be participating in some form of social media and not realize it or you may be getting tons of value from your accounts and it be the best lifeline that you’ve ever had!
The term “social media” includes online outlets like Facebook, Twitter, chat rooms, online communities and forums. Our “social” world is growing exponentially. Consider how marvelous this is for folks (like maybe for you?) whose health isn’t excellent… folks who spend more time indoors and are not as mobile as they would like to be. Folks who need friends to talk to and answers that they can really use.
This may sound like your situation or like that of someone you love. Dear ones, I propose the following: so that we can have the tightest network, the most dynamic and powerful force and voice for ourselves in this world and to ensure that we have the possibility and probability of our healthcare needs being met, I suggest that you consider learning all you can about social media and get involved. Don’t be afraid. Participate at will. As a people, the way you and I communicate with each other is powerfully changing for the better because of social media.
If you don’t have a Facebook or Twitter account, I urge you to not only get one today, but learn how to use it. Neither account is that hard to set up and they are both a lot of fun. Take it slow, but gradually… gradually… begin connecting with more people. Open yourself up to new “friends” and don’t be afraid to join in discussions that sound interesting. And please, whatever you do, don’t shut yourself off and only allow the friends who are already in your circle. That doesn’t help you get new voices, new ideas or new support people in your life. Be brave and get involved. Simply do the best that you can on the bad days, as well as your good days.
I see people all the time on Twitter and Facebook with only a few of their own followers and they are only following a few people. That’s a shame! I usually follow these people for awhile, but if they don’t follow me back, we can’t “engage” together so there’s no use. Dear One, there’s a huge universe of health knowledge being written and published on these websites about Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. You probably won’t get the opportunity to read it unless you’re following someone. People like me want to follow you, too.
If you follow me, I assure you that the main purpose for my Facebook and Twitter accounts is to let you know what’s going on at the Health Matters Show and Get Well Health. I do not engage in any form of spam.
Connect with me on Facebook or Twitter , like so many other people have done already. There are thousands of us online and if we band together, we can be so much more powerful. Together, you and I can be awesome. Yes, we’ll tackle the battle of Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and chronic illness together.
Now before you leave today… comment below or share this web post/ blog entry with your friends. Digg it. Twitter it… go crazy! Doing these things helps my website gain popularity and that, in turn, helps spead the really truthful words about Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. We need other people to know the truth about these illnesses. We need more people to know that others are getting their health back and they are feeling better!
Blog on and thanks, Cinda Crawford
