WhatsApp Group

We have one WhatsApp group where patients and their families can share experiences and support each other. Joining is by controlled registration.

How do I join our WhatsApp group?

Fill in the group application form: first name, surname, city, WhatsApp number, and when and where the diagnosis was made.
Declare in writing that you are an Addison’s patient or a relative of one and wish to join our WhatsApp group (the tick boxes on the form).
Press Send: your details open in WhatsApp as a ready-made message to our line (+90 555 855 05 50); send the message in that chat.
Our team reviews your application and contacts you if needed.
Once it is confirmed that you are an Addison’s patient (or a relative), we add you to our WhatsApp group.

Why don’t we share an invite link? So that our group stays a safe space for real patients and their families. This way we protect your personal data in line with KVKK (Turkish data protection law) and prevent people unrelated to the group from bothering our members. There is therefore no open-link access to the group.

No alternative medicine. Any member who recommends alternative medicine, herbal/“natural” remedies or stopping medication is removed without discussion.
Quiet hours: no messages between 23:00 and 09:00 (Türkiye time) except in emergencies.
No off-topic messages: holiday/Bayram greetings, special-day messages and chat unrelated to the group’s purpose are not allowed.
Careful, controlled sharing: what is discussed here directly affects people’s health; always share carefully and responsibly.
Respect comes first: respect for group members comes before everything else.
Remember: other members are Addison’s patients (or their relatives) too; choose your tone accordingly.
