Does anyone know if support groups are a good form of treatment for bipolar, coping, and depression? Someone with experience.

I have found that support groups help a lot, especially if they have a counselor leading them, so that, they stay on track.

I think it all depends on the program and who is leading it. I've had great and not so hreat experiences with group therapy, so I say go for it, give it a try.
What has made my experiences best with group therapy are the people in the group; it feels wonderful to know and talk to others about similar issues and worries. Sent from my SGH-T999L using Tapatalk |

I am also curious about this question. My fears about support groups come from wanting to be anonymous. I would like to check out an Al-Anon group, but my alcoholic parent is well-known in my small city. I find that it is hard enough for me to be open with my friends - doing it with strangers seems like it would be even harder.

My Support Forums is the online community that was originally begun as the Psych Central Forums in 2001. It now runs as an independent self-help support group community for mental health, personality, and psychological issues and is overseen by a group of dedicated, caring volunteers from around the world.
