Patients suffering from fibromyalgia commonly experience depressive symptoms such as loneliness and hopelessness due to the nebulousness of the disease.

Using archival, de-identified data collected by a social media company, this study aims to explore whether connectedness among patients with fibromyalgia facilitated by social media can improve mental and physical health outcomes.
