DBSA online support groups offer people living with depression or bipolar disorder a safe, welcoming space to share experiences, discuss coping strategies, and support one another with hope. All groups are free of charge.
There are two ways to join a DBSA online support group:
- National groups hosted on HeyPeers, a DBSA partner platform. After registering, you’ll receive an email from HeyPeers to help you manage your account.
- Local chapter groups, some of which are open to participants from any location.
NOTE: If you don’t see a national group that fits your schedule, or you’re placed on a waitlist, check to see if a local chapter offers an online group that works for you. Learn more.

In addition to our general support groups, we offer identity-focused groups.
Designed to be welcoming and supportive spaces, these groups offer participants the chance to discuss shared experiences and find community with others walking a similar path to wellness.
