You probably know someone who could use support for a mood disorder, or someone who is helping a loved one through a tough time. Tell someone they’re not alone.
In research conducted by Pepperdine University, DBSA support groups showed that participants reported higher levels of understanding and acceptance of their mental health condition, confidence about their treatment, optimism and control over their future, and self-esteem.
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, including parents and caregivers of children who live with a mood disorder, and friends and family groups.
