Will do. Thank you. Seriously. This is very helpful. I hope I can find something that works for me
Edit: Sent an email to the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance in my area. I hope that works out but if it doesnt... Ill ask around more! The National Alliance For Mental Illness groups in my area apparently dont have any scheduled meetings any time soon.
I wonder if Ill even be accepted though. My diagnosis USED to be bipolar but now its schizoaffective bipolar type so maybe... I wont be welcome. Hopefully its ok though that I no longer am straightforwards bipolar. If not. Then theres probably more groups. Trying to remain hopeful!
