Support Groups

This Support Group Directory will help you connect with support groups, established both locally and around the world.

Finding help and connecting with like minded people is an essential part of the healing process. It can be incredibly beneficial to openly communicate with others who have experienced similar life events.

Please note, we do not directly endorse any particular support group listed below as we have no control or say in how they operate. However, we have sourced some of the most beneficial groups around the world, and we hope that this information can serve as a good starting point for finding a support group that best suits your needs and assist you on your healing journey.

Depression & mental illness

Support4hope

Support4Hope is dedicated to support of various mental health issues such as Bipolar Disorder, Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Schizophrenia, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and the problems that arise from them along with other problems such as Domestic Abuse. We are sure that through a supportive environment, we can survive. We like to project the idea of being a survivor instead of a sufferer. When people have needs for support there is no one better to help them than people that have been through what they are going through and know it can be controlled.
