I had once a 10 session short group therapy which was called "coping with bipolar symptoms". My Pdoc prescribed me to join. I never ever had any idea this kind of things even exist. It was awesome. I'm socially quite awkward and was really reserved to go to sessions but somehow it just took off and we had absolutely great time in there. We even put a private facebook group together just to be able to keep in touch. There you'd meet a full scale of people like you. Me & one girl were quite hypomanic in first session, which broke the ice. one guy never spoke anything but once told having a major depression ongoing. He was accepted just the way he was. One rapid cycling owned 19 snowmobiles 'cause he couldn't resist buying those. One shamed of her condition, One alkie, Teenager hospitalized already before finishing highschool... You name it. It was just awsome.
