I think the key thing that a community which includes healthcare professionals and other people who share either your condition or other conditions of a similar nature, the key thing it can provide you is one, tips and tricks that other people have picked up to deal with the same issues you're facing. Obviously the wider the community you're going to find people who you know have come across very similar if not the same problems you face possibly in similar lifestyle situations or in totally different ones but with a common theme to them and you can get interesting insights into how you can manage those in your day-to-day life. But as importantly and perhaps more subtly just knowing that other people are facing the same things you're facing and can provide a great deal of comfort particularly when it's an issue that's sort of nagging on your mind and you're constantly worrying about just to know that it's it's not a you specific problem and that it's something that other people are dealing with can help get over sort of the mental barricades that stop you from trying to proactively address it or be successful in doing so.
