Support
Why is support important?
-
Feelings of isolation can be immobilizing. Support can give relief from isolation while giving the opportunity to not only associate within a group, but possibly form meaningful, lasting, individual friendships.
-
Sharing experiences can lead to increased self-awareness, self-esteem and self confidence.
-
Groups provide great opportunities for learning new strategies and options for dealing with the day-to-day rigors of living with any mental illness.
-
Support can keep us focused on the here and now, while moving us forward with our recovery.
