Support Group or something

[Vaughny]

I’m looking for a support group or something like that near Ravena, NY. If there aren’t any near there then any recommendations for Therapists would be much appreciated.

I’m new to this area and my mental health hasn’t improved in the, almost, year I’ve been here. Getting through day to day life is getting increasingly difficult and just having a group of people, or a professional, to chat with, or even meet up with in person, would help I feel.

Sorry that this post is formatted in a weird way, I’ve not had to make a post like this ever, or say anything like this ever.

Hi Vaughny,Thank you for reaching out for advice.

Call 988 which is the mental health national help line. You can chat on 988lifeline.org.You might not have been aware of this help because it is new, set up in last six months. It's the mental health equivalent of 911.

One thing you could also try is to find a therapist online you can do tele appointments with, that might give you a lot more options if you are in a smaller town and you can even search for certain type with a speciality you would prefer to speak with. If you have insurance they might even use a certain telehealth provider with options also.
