This is a forum for anxiety and depression. I have been receiving emails from local churches, meditation halls and community centers about online groups forming to help with the isolation. Fire up the Google bot and see what pops up for your area.

I feel you, Isolation right now is really difficult. I also was looking for a video group as well but from my research only forums are what I’m finding. If I do find a resource I’ll be sure to let you know! Stay safe and I wish you the best

U r very kind. I need to see other ppl

If "mindfulness" practice interests you, maybe check your area hospitals' websites for online learning.

I recently signed up for a 6 week "mindful eating" class and we use the zoom app for video conferencing.

This class is $60; but the hospital also has been known to lower fees for people who have money problems. (It's a Catholic hospital)

My bigger point is, do some sleuthing with hospitals. Because it is all online, maybe your location doesn't matter.
