Reddit for Caregivers

Reddit Caregiver Map

This is a map from Anvaka on Github, where I typed in the subreddit /r/caregivers, and Anvaka gives me a map of related subreddits. This is the list measured by relevance to /r/caregivers:

1. Caregivers /r/caregivers/
2. Dementia /r/dementia/
3. AgingParents /r/AgingParents/
4. Alzheimers /r/Alzheimers/
5. ElderCare /r/eldercare/
6. CaregiverSupport /r/CaregiverSupport/
7. Parkinsons /r/Parkinsons/
8. Hospice & Palliative Care /r/hospice/

How to search on Reddit for subreddits with people with caregiver circumstances like you?

You can start by going to Google and doing a search with the work “reddit” typed at the end of your search. For example, type “parkinson's caregiving reddit” into the google search. Most of the google search results will be from caregiving-related subreddits.

Or if you already have a Reddit account, you can just search in Reddit. Type “parkinson's caregiving” and look for popular Posts or relevant Subreddits with people in similar circumstances, or whatever you’re looking for.

A couple tips if caregiving is the first thing that draws you to a community on Reddit:

1. You’re not suppose to make an account with your real name. You’re supposed to make up a username.
2. “Searching for people” on reddit is kinda creepy. You should be searching for a subreddit with people that match your circumstances.
