This episode of The Chemical Sensitivity Podcast is about finding community and supporting one another online.

Since so many people with MCS are dismissed and misdiagnosed by healthcare professionals, the internet is often a vital source of information about the illness. And because of the social isolation that many folks with MCS experience, connecting with others online and supporting one another can play an important role in many people’s lives.

In this episode, Aaron speaks with Brenda Fincher, a longtime administrator, and Shelley Petit, a member of The Multiple Chemical Sensitivity group on Facebook. It was formed about seven years ago, is one of the largest MCS groups online, and now has more than 8,200 members from around the world.

In their conversation, Aaron asks Brenda and Shelley about the role online community can play in the lives of people with MCS, how they have personally benefited from being involved with The Multiple Chemical Sensitivity group, and how they see their online activities as a form of activism.
