What we’re about

Depression and anxiety can result in silent suffering. Sharing with family or friends doesn't always help because they cannot relate. This group gives you a place to get support from people who understand because they share the same suffering.

Overview:
This group provides a safe and supportive environment for people to connect and share experiences, strength, hope, and offer mutual support. It is a sanctuary where members can be authentic, free from judgment, and receive encouragement and understanding from others who can relate to their struggles.

The meeting is in two parts:
-Part 1 is to share hope and successes.  People can talk about helpful therapies, medications, or behaviors or you can provide a positive update since our last meeting.
-Part 2 is to share your suffering.  You can share or just listen in peace with your camera on or off. 

Meeting Rules:

  1. Confidentiality: What is shared in the meeting stays in the group.
  2. Active Listening: Listen attentively without interrupting others.
  3. Respect: Treat each participant with kindness, empathy, and respect.
  4. One Person Speaks at a Time: Avoid talking over each other.
  5. No Judgement: Do not to judge others.
  6. Mutual Support: Offer support, encouragement, and inspiration to fellow participants whenever possible.
