Q: Depression support groups or someone I can talk to?
Thanks to everyone who responded to my last post. I think I do need help but I’m too afraid to get it now. So I was wondering if there are any online support groups where I could talk on or someone I could talk to online? This is only temporary for 6 months.
I saw the school psychologist in high school and I exagerrated some things out of anger which caused the school to call child services. This got my parents in trouble. Although my parents were cleared I don’t want to give them that trouble again. In six months my brother will be 18 so I won’t have to worry about something like that happening.
I will only be talking online for help for 6 months. In 6 months I will go see a psychatrist for help.
In six months my brother will be 18 which makes him an adult. Which means if I say anything like I did in high school DCF or child services can’t cause my parents any more trouble.
I’m 21. My brother is still a minor. I just don’t want anything that comes out of my mouth, especially out of anger to hurt him
No I don’t ahve a pastor or anyone else to talk to. I’ve been isolating myself lately.

Q: Does anyone know of any good online support groups for depression/social anxiety?
I looked through Google search results but I don’t know which ones are any good. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :)

A: The support groups for depression on the third page of section 2, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris were all recommended by people at Y!A previously, but I have none regarding social anxiety (except through search engines).

Check out the COMPREHENSIVE POST, though, in section 9, which is often awarded “best answer”; also see page R, in section 2, about depression, which I amended, slightly, after having it constructively criticised by a mental health professional with over 20 years of experience.

Q: Would you join an online depression group?
How and how much do you think they would or wouldnt help you?

A: I probably would. Might help you discussing and gaining opinions and answers on personal stuff…

Q: I was assigned to be a learder of a small anxiety/ depression group. what should i do?
what ever activities that help people with anxiety or have fun. time just 10 minutes.

A: Make them do something that makes them laugh or smile. This will help the depressed people feel good for at least 10 mins. of their day and will not make the people with anxiety become hyper…which could bring on their problems.

Q: Does anyone know of any support groups for depression in Northeast San Antonio?
I am hoping to meet with people with like problems to help me find solutions, and contacts. Thanks, pf

A: I have some very specific information for you from the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance. The Christian Community of San Antonio is one support group. The woman’s name is Barbara Livingston and her number is (830) 624-8341. I also have another name and number for you. It’s Kathy Franklin (210) 945-0689. Both of those people should be able to help you. Good luck and I hope you feel better.

Q: What are some online support groups for people with depression/bipolar disorder?
I’ve heard that there are onlne support groups for people who have been diagnosed with a mental illness such as depression or bipolar disorder. If you have any recommendations, please let me know. I think an online group might help me relieve some of my feelings of isolation when I am alone. I know that an in-person type of group might be beneficial as well, but I’d like to start slowly.

Q: Depression support groups?
Have you ever/do you attend a depression support group in your area? I cannot afford treatment or medication and this is my only option. Did this help you? Why or why not? What should I expect at a meeting?

A: NAMI is a good resource. I’ve attended three DBSA (Depression Bipolar Support Alliance) meetings. The only reason I don’t continue is that they aren’t held in my area. Meetings can be very helpful. Who better to talk to about how you’re feeling than someone who’s had a similar experience, right?

At a meeting expect to tell people your first name, your disorder (depression), and how things are going or a bit about yourself. If you want to hang out & just listen, that’s cool too. The people there care & may be able to help you tap into community resources you’re currently unaware of.

Q: Are there any free online Depression Support Groups or online counselors or therapists?
I’m pretty sure I have depression. I’m a college student and I just can’t afford to even go to the doctor to get it verified. I’ve taken countless quizzes and tests online that says I have it horribly! I was wondering, is there any support groups that could help me, or any online therapists? I would greatly appreciate it. It is ruining my life, I’ve already lost my job, I’m on the brink of flunking college, and not to mention my relationships with my family and friends are on the fritz. Please help!

A: You’ll have more luck with google then the most of the jalapenos on this site. I left you a couple of links at the bottom of what I came across as reference.

Q: Can anyone help me find a good online depression support group in Australia?
I am on medication and suffer from chronic, long term, clinical depression. I live in a small town and feel I need a suitable support group, particulaly during acute episodes. Sometimes Lifeline is not an option, and I thought that maybe a reputable support group may help me. There are so many sites on the net I don`t know where to start, or who to trust.

A: Hi there, beyondblue is a fantastic site for someone who suffers from anything from depression, anxiety disorders, ocd or anything like that.
They are fantastic, you can call and chat to someone whenever you feel the need.
Or just email me :)
I am and have been clinicaly depressed for over 7 years now.
If you want someone to chat to just email me and I will try and help.
You are not alone.
I am a complete stranger but, I am also someone who understands completely the loneliness and isolation that depression can bring. :)

Q: depression support groups (preferably free) near 11730 or 11752 ? please, its important.?
my best friend is depressed. ive been trying all i can to help, but he needs to talk to a counselor or someone that can relate. i know that if i bring him to a support group it would help him, even if it only helped him a little, hes my best friend, and hes lost all hope in the everything. please, im trying to google it and i cant find anything that would be in person, everything i google is an online support group-which i know he wont do. so please, something in person, and things i can say to him to make him feel better. anything helps.. thanks

A: you would think that in a world where there are support groups for almost anything, there would be one for depression, but i too cannot find a single one and i’ve checked out several states. So, I started my own, i advertised it in the papers in my area, and on the given date, I had sixty people show up, needless to say, we were rather crammed together in my house, so next time we agreed that we would all chip in for renting a large room once or twice a month. Then I found a church that would let us use their basement every week if we wanted, we now meet twice a month. Some come, all the time, some come and go as they feel the need, but there is always a group of from twenty to sixty people, and all benefit from seeing that others are dealing with the same thing. it took me about a month to get things really rolling, but that is what I did.

Q: What were the ethnic groups in Mississippi during the Great Depression?
I’ve been searching and i can’t find what i’m looking for…I need to find out the ethnic groups, it doesn’t have to be percents, but just general groups (ie. Asian, African American, and etc..) during the Great Depression (1930’s) in Mississippi.
If you know any websites or other sources with this would be great..so please help!! T~T

A: whites, blacks, chinese, indian

Q: Where I can find live support groups?
I cant seem to find a depression support group that I can go to.
Please help

A: Best to ring the local mental health clinic and they can inform you if there are any going and give you the details etc
and you can go from there!

Best of Luck!
