11 Active Health and Mental Health Publications on Medium to Apply to Be Published In
A curated list of 11 current health publications that are still accepting writers. With useful stats about them and contact information for people looking to get published on Medium.com
The below post is a list of 10 current health and mental health publications on Medium, with different (hopefully useful!) stats and information about them. I’ve collected the number of subscribers, 5 associated tags to use, and the methods to apply to be published along with contact information.
I sorted through 150 different health and mental health publications on Medium so that you don’t have to! This list is to help fellow noob writers out there on Medium that are interested in publishing in the broad topic of writing.
*I spent way more than usual making this list today — it shows me that there’s probably ample room for one of you ambitious creators out there to make a new publication on Health or Mental Health! If you do, let me know and I’ll add it to the list!
**It seems at least a couple of people took the advice of the above — I have since added Robert Turner and Dr Jeff Livingston’s new health publication — Being Well — to the list. Check it out!
Some quick notes
- These aren’t the top 10 health publications, I’ve curated them from combing over 150 related publications on Medium.com
- I’ve arranged the below from most to least amount of subscribers (in theory, the hardest to easiest to get published in)
- I’ve tried my best to curate ones that still accept writers
- I’ve excluded publications that have stopped publishing (many of the 143 I searched through)
- I’ve excluded Medium owned publications
- I’ve tried to exclude big existing magazines that I know of (ex. The Economist)
- Most publications require unpublished drafts
