Find A Support Group

Having a support system is an important part of feeling good. It benefits a person on all levels, and studies have shown that people with support systems live longer. Trust and open communication are key components in the healing process.

How do I find a support group in my community?

Many people find peer support a helpful tool that can help towards overcoming depression. There are a variety of organizations that offer support groups for consumers, their family members and friends. Some support groups are peer-led, while others may be led by a mental health professional.

Join the Inspire Online Support Group: An online support group can be very helpful in managing depression. It allows you to share your stories with others and get support even when you can’t get out of bed. iFred has partnered with an online depression and anxiety support group, Inspire. You can make friends through this group and potentially find or start a local in person support group.

Your local Mental Health Association: This is an excellent resource to assist you in finding support groups in your area.

National Mental Health Consumers’ Self-Help Clearinghouse: Maintains a listing of support groups on a broad range of mental health topics.
