Hi,

We have just started a new social group, where we can offer support to each other. Right now it is private group, as I thought it inappropriate for people to stumble across and possibly be triggered by others feeling down.
I felt it could be a place where people can chat to others for when they are really feeling low, maybe battling with sui thoughts. Most of us have been there at some stage, and know they just need someone to offer the support and walk with them for a few hours, until one is either tired enough to go to sleep, or feel somewhat better. Or to tide over the hours in the middle of the night, until the morning, when a T can be phoned.

Emergencies should definitely be handled by the ER, but for some of us, we're just not quite at that stage. We just need a friend.

Please PM me if you'd like to be added to the list.

I want to highlight Black Pup's comment - we are definitely looking for some of the more experienced guys out there to offer support to those of us still new to our diagnosis. This support will be invaluable and much appreciated
