Just looking for help

[Crid]

I'm really struggling with depression and anxiety, I have no friends or family around. What support groups can I join.

[Hidden]

Welcome, you've reached out that's a good step to take. (I don't have many people that support me either.)

You're in a support group now.

Otherwise I suggest NAMI, they have resources as well. nami.org/Home

Thank you, I reached out the the crisis help line today, this has been a rough few months

[Hidden in reply to Crid]

The crisis line is a great resource, I'm glad you were able to do that. I hope things get better. You're safe here. Hugs

"What support groups can I join."

You're here.

Welcome.

.

This group may not be a "traditional support group" style where you sit down in a circle, and a group leader talks about a certain topic with others.

But, it's still a good tool and (supportive) community where people talk about what is going on, and others try to be supportive.

[Crid in reply to AnxiousSilver]

I appreciate that, I don't think I could be in a room full of people.

[Hidden in reply to Crid]

Me either.

Sorry, I saw your reply and had to say that. I'm full of anxiety I can't imagine being around a bunch of people. And that's ok.

[Crid in reply to Hidden]

Oh me either my anxiety is what got me in the mess I'm in now

[Hidden in reply to Crid]

Same here, I understand. Just take a deep breath and know that you're not alone.

[Crid in reply to Hidden]

Thank you

You're welcome 🙏✨️💛

"I appreciate that, I don't think I could be in a room full of people. "

I get it.

This group and my previous group has its Pros and Cons, but it's mostly Pro's with both groups.

.

But this group has a lot of good and supportive people here, and that's what matters most.

[Crid in reply to AnxiousSilver]

Thank you look forward to being able to helped and helping others.

Hello. I just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I suffer from severe social anxiety and have to move soon. I find myself reaching out to get some people back in my world.

[Crid in reply to Jennblank7734]

I feel you on the social anxiety. It's nice to meet you.

there is a Depressed Anonymous that has meetings every day. Depressedanon.com

You are welcome here, Crid. And this is the safest space I know. Many of us are from the UK and other countries, so there is always someone "listening" any hour of the day or night.😊😊
