The Depression and Anxiety Wellness Support Group

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.

You can share or just listen in peace with your camera on or off.

The meeting is in two parts:
In part 1, we share success stories - treatments that have worked for you, challenges you've overcome, or anything positive that you would like to share.
In part 2, you can share whatever brought you to our meeting. How you're doing, any challenges you're facing, or if you just need an OHL (online hug).

If you would like to share, please put that in the chat. If you do not know how to use the chat, please raise your hand and we will call on you.

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.

Disclaimer:
We're an informal peer support group where we share our experiences to hopefully help each other navigate life a little easier. We're not medical professionals and are not licensed to diagnose any conditions or prescribe treatment. If you are in a crisis, please call or text 988, or call 911.
